One VERY personalized Sweet 16 cake!
| The Customer This Sweet 16 cake was, without a doubt, the most personalized cake we have ever made. It was one very special cake for one amazing young woman. In addition to being wowed by this young lady, working with this family to design her cake was such a nice experience. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to do this cake and have our lives touched by this family. This birthday girl is one active girl! In our first contact with the family, we got some insight into all that she does. Let me tell you... the list goes on! We were quite impressed! She is one amazing young woman! The goal was to incorporate aspects from all of her activities onto the cake. They knew what they wanted on this cake and together we worked up a great design with them. |

The bottom two tiers were Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake, with a Chocolate filling, iced in Chocolate Buttercream and finished with a Vanilla Fondant.

The Design
Each tier of this four tiered cake represented one aspect of the birthday girl's daily life.
Top Tier:
She's a cheerleader! The top tier of this amazing design is filled with aspects of her cheerleading. Red and white are her school colors at North Rockland High School and the paw print represents her school's mascot.
Second Tier:
She plays basketball on the Police Athletic League! This tier was done in a pale orange fondant to represent basketball, yet keep with the muted colors chosen for the design. Along with the obvious basketball items on this tier, you'll find her numbers and the PAL initials for the Police Athletic League.
Third Tier:
She's an EMS volunteer! Impressed with her yet? I certainly am, and we still have one tier to go!! This tier was done in a light blue background to represent the colors of her ambulance corps in Stony Point, NY. Along with the really cute ambulance and other obvious items, you'll notice the letters SPAC, which stand for Stony Point Ambulance Corps.
Fourth Tier:
And last, but certainly not least, she's a volunteer for the fire department! As I said in the beginning... amazing! This tier was done in a dusty gray fondant to keep with the muted background colors and makes a great representation of smoke! On this tier, you will again find the obvious items and, if you didn't guess by now, her number is 23.

| The Wow Factor In case there wasn't enough to wow you on this cake, we went and added one more amazing feature to it! The idea for this came from the birthday girl's mom. We were so inspired by this idea, we just ran with it! I'm sure we don't have to tell you what it is, but incase you missed the obvious... check out the birthday girl, in her turn out gear, climbing the ladder, with the hose, to put out the fire on her big 16! I will not lie, this was one of those things that we had no idea HOW we were going to do it. But, like everything else, we figured it out and it was awesome! |
