Nancy received a request for a carousel cake to help celebrate Bae’s 3rd birthday. Bae is an adorable and sweet little girl, and she loves carousels! Bae was having her party at an adorable indoor carnival-themed party venue that was filled with carnival booths featuring games perfect for a younger crowd. The cake’s color theme of red and blue matched the venue’s decor and the invitations.
Bae was thrilled by the carousel cake. She especially loved the hand-painted horses. They were made from gum paste, an edible sugar dough, and each horse was a little bit different from the others. This cake required a bit of engineering because the top canopy was made from cake and the structure had to be strong enough to hold up its weigh. Of course this cake was our most child-requested flavor: chocolate cake with oreo cookie filling.
