Mini Cooper Birthday Cake



when i was asked if I could do a birthday cake like a mini cooper i went a tad cold at the thought of carving sponge to emulate said classic. I am not a huge fan of overtly obvious things as i think it is always so much more stylish to take an element of a design and work with this. the mini is an iconic car with so many iconic and recognisable features so i thought it would be good to come up with a design that took on board so key design features. the result was the aside image which takex cues from the bonnet of a mini cooper with the dark blue and grey colour usage from their palette. i wanted to keep clean lines and not overly complicate or fuss the cake as i am a believer in less being more. the customer said that the cake was the highlight of the party and that it tasted awesome - so that is just great as it is always good to hit the mark.
