Birthday Cake: Big Hero 6

Maybe, just maybe, we'll be almost caught up on our blogging finally with this post.  Maybe!  Yay for rare weekends off!

Recently we've had a ton of orders for cakes, and not so many for cupcakes.  For some reason, it seems to come in waves.  All April we baked up dozens upon dozens of cupcakes for orders (we had to reorder cupcake boxes, that's how many we shipped out), but since then it's been a steady stream of cake designs.

Cakes are definitely more challenging to make and decorate than cupcakes, but they let us have a little more creativity, which we like.  After all, there's only so many things you can do to decorate a cupcake.

If you remember last year, we made a surprise birthday cake for our little sister, who owns her own photography business (don't remember??  It's ok, click here, catch up, we'll wait till you get back to continue).  We felt a camera cake would best fit her personality, and we were happy with how it turned out.

Fast forward to last week, our little brother was turning 23 and we wanted to make him a cake too.  He likes Disney movies, Asian culture, and goldfish crackers.  We took the first two likes and combined them into a Big Hero 6 cake.



The hardest part about this cake, ironically, was finding the figurines we would add to it.  Disney, stop marketing the crap out of Frozen, already, you have other wonderful films that aren't getting the attention they deserve.  Like Big Hero 6.  

San Frantokyo turned out pretty well for a last minute cake, and it tasted yummy too.  So now we've made cakes for both our siblings off our bucket list, finally!!

More cake updates coming soon.  We're excited to tell you about all this, guys!! :)  Stay dry out there this week!
