I received a call on Monday “can you make a cake for a party on Saturday?‘. ’Sure’, I said.
Received an email the next morning ..’How BIG can you make the cake?”

BIG!! The cake is over 70cm tall, excluding sign, and was made to celebrate the much loved Alan’s 50th birthday AND his 30th year working in the Gaiety in Dublin. We didn’t meet Alan yesterday as he was barred for the weekend so the party could be set up but, thanks to everyone we had the pleasure of meeting and working with, the man is much loved and admired.

The cakes are all 5" high and are: 10" chocolate biscuit cake, 8" raspberry and vanilla and a 6" Strawberry swirl. We also provided an 8" lemon cake for cutting (or keeping).

p.s. our cake even got a velvet rope!!!

Wonderful design

You must never limit your challenges, instead you must challenge your limits

Aw, thank you. It’s based on a design I was sent a copy of (their cake was far superior to mine too), then based again on finials etc. in theatre. x
