Alice in Whimsical-land

Alice in Wonderland is one of my favourite stories. From the mad hatter to that crazy Queen...it's all so fantastical! We have created many different Alice in Wonderland themed cakes over the years and they just keep getting better and better! So, if anyone wants to challenge us with a 3D bust of the Mad Hatter, we're all for it!!!

Spectacular tiered Birthday cakes (this first one was inspired by another cake decorator whose name I will reference as soon as I found out who s/he is...our client brought us a photo they found online).



3D Story Book cakes


Inspired from the cartoon version...several cakes created for the Books 2 Eat fundraiser for the Edmonton Public Library


Tim Burton's Mad Hatter's Hat (I think we liked it better without the fondant figures)...and I probably could have made more hat pins, though there are some fondant feathers as well.




...and of cousre the Chesire cat in 3D created by 2 of our Whimsical Designers (Aislinn and Heather)...sometimes I swear some of our cakes look like they're about to talk!


If you haven't seen the movie yet, you must! Simply for Helena Bonham Carter portrayal of the Red Queen. "Where are my fat boys? You must meet them. Fat boooys!....I love my fat boys. Now get out."

Super Mario, take 5?

Seriously...I can't count the number of super mario cakes we've created. Mini versions, torso up versions, fondant figures....if we never see a Super Mario cake again, I think we'd be okay with that.

Just to make things more interesting, we gave this cake order to Ken. He's on this new kick of building custom stands. I think he found his niche in the studio. He's all game for more challenges, so bring it!!!

Here is Mario pre-fondant stage
Here is standing with all his mario-glory. Did we mention we totally undercharged for this 2 day project? Even though we totally gave Ken a hard time about over "tanning" Mario and giving him an oversized "snout"! haha.

Here is another custom cake that Ken made...with custom stand to boot. Eat that Ace of Cakes! Just kidding. We totally love Ace of Cakes.
