Surprise!! He's 50!!!

This weekend a lucky man is celebrating his 50th birthday with a surprise party from his wife and children. How lucky can you be?!
The colour scheme I was given was grey, white and blue. I designed it to look like a pile of birthday presents positioned on top of one another.
The cake was a rich and moist buttermilk chocolate and coffee combination, covered in chocolate buttercream.
Decadence at its best..........

With each present having a different pattern, this cake really popped!!

And of course it wouldn't be a present without a bow...............

Whats in the box??

Everyone loves receiving presents! And everyone loves cake!! This cake was a perfect combination of both......a gift box cake! 

There are so many ways this design can be varied, or done in different colours, depending on who the special birthday girl/boy is... 

And the large rectangular base meant that there was more than enough cake to go around at the party! Yumm!!

And, of course, no gift is complete without a big bow! :)
