"the Singing Butler" handbag cake

expand all pictures

I always love a challenge and re-creating this gorgeous piece of artwork was just that. My friend really loves this artist but particularly this piece “the Singing Butler” by Jack Vettriano. So when her husband contacted me asking me to do a cake he mentioned 2 things this artwork and handbag…so I thought why not create for her , her very own handbag, and her husband loved the idea.
The painting is all done free hand with cocoa butter and if you cannot tell I am really loving cocoa butter. The cake itself was carrot cake. The flower I added as her favorite dance is the tango, and I felt it represented that.

Thank you Jack Vettriano for giving me permission to use this art work it was greatly appreciated. You guys all need to go check out this artist his work is totally fabulous …. http://www.jackvettriano.com/
