PARTYROCK!!!!

This weekend one of my closest friends, Raeesa celebrated her 21st birthday. What better gift for me to give her than a fabulous birthday cake!! Her theme was Party Rockers/ LMFAO (the band). It was super fun, bright and colourful! and a GREAT party.



LMFAO is all about bright colours, big bows, animal print, and anything crazy!! We think this cake captured that perfectly.

A glittery "shuffling" man. (LMFAO's signature move)


Of course we had to add a glittery robot head (to represent the robot man seen in the LMFAO videos)




The gorgeous Birthday Girl.......



Here are a few pics of the fun decor Raeesa had at the party (with the help of her besties!)...



Candy jars and a candy filled pinata...

Props basket, filled with themed props for guests to have fun with.....                                       


Shufflin Man...

Glow sticks for guest to wear, and plenty of candy to go around.....


Everyone enjoyed her slush machine!

Nursery Rhyme Fun! Yusuf is 1!

This weekend my nephew, Yusuf, celebrated his 1st Birthday! I cannot believe how time has flown by! To celebrate this special day my sister thought it would be great to invite everyone over for some nursery rhyme fun.
Keep an eye out on The Cutest Party on the Block for pictures of the cute nursery rhyme themed decor created for the party.
The cake, of course, had to be extra Extra EXTRA special! This is what we created for him...


The idea and inspiration for this cake was from a cake by Rebecca Sutterby of Sugar Creations. Follow the link on her site to her flickr account to have a look at her beautiful creations.

Humpty Dumpty...


Jack and Jill...


...the dish ran away with the spoon....


Three blind mice....


...see how they run...


Mary had a little lamb...


...whose fleece was white as snow...


The cow jumped over the moon...


The pages of the book were designed to match with the printables used in the decor of the party. 


All aspects of the cake were hand made by the Bakeshop and 100% edible.


 We also made vanilla cupcakes with bunting directions made in the exact pattern of the real buntings used at the party.



Have a look at this super cool doughnut tower we created... The Bakeshop will now be adding this to our list of wonderful sweet treats on offer. 


Each tower holds around 100 doughnut rounds which your guest can easily pick off and enjoy.
