You may already know that I have a cake fetish. I f’ing love cake. Whatevs, get over it.
So I planned my sister’s 40th surprise b-day party a few weeks ago in Vegas and of course I spent copious amounts of time a) searching for the best bakery in the Las Vegas/ Henderson area, and b) designing the cake & color palette with the baker, amongst other things like choosing the flowers, picking the menu, making the invites, coordinating the surprise with everyone etc etc… But back to cake. I fell deeply head-over-heels with this pink ribbon cake I saw on The Wedding Chicks from marthastewart.com
Right?? It’s just straight pretty. So we copied it.
We had 2 cakes & cupcakes. The pink ribbon one was the strawberries & cream. The other was caramel choc-chip and whatever ever other heavenly stuff they put in there, and the cupcakes where chocolate. Everything made from scratch- the butter cream, caramel etc, This bakery was by far the best quality and most outstanding service and attention to detail in Nevada! I HIGHLY recommend them. Please visit Layers Bakery, and if you don’t need a cake, at the very least go in there and try some of their pastries with your morning coffee… truly divine! All fresh home-made ingredients, and none of the foofy over-animated gaudy-looking stuff. Old-school deliciousness; exactly what I was looking for! Ok, now for the cake porn….
(oh and btw, can you tell how much I love Peonies?) The rest of the flowers are Ranunculus, Wax Flower and Stock.
