Fireman's Helmet

This custom fireman's helmet cake looks like the real thing, but trust us, it's cake!

The cake was hand sculpted in the shape of the helmet and decorated in rolled chocolate to look like the Deputy Chief's helmet!

Snowflakes

Today's wedding cake features two different kinds of snowflakes: buttercream and pastillage.

The cake was frosted in our buttercream frosting, and our snowflake design was hand-piped onto the sides of the cake in buttercream. The cake was then finished with some pastillage snowflakes that had metallic gold accents.

Christening Cake

Madison's Christening cake was extra special, so it is our Featured Friday cake today!

This cake was frosted in pink buttercream frosting and decorated with rolled chocolate applique of ducks, bottles, onesies and crosses. It was then topped with hand sculpted rolled chocolate blocks and a teddy bear.

Cupcakes

Cupcakes can make for a beautiful display at a wedding! Michelle and Bob's wedding cupcakes are a perfect example of that!

They had a mixture of chocolate, vanilla and red velvet cupcakes, topped with buttercream flowers. In addition, they had a small 6" cake to use for the ceremonial cutting of the cake. This cake had our swiss dot design on the sides and coordinating buttercream flowers on top.

Celtics

We often create birthday cakes with Boston sports logos, since Boston sports are so popular here. But today's Featured Friday cake came out especially awesome!

This cake was frosted in vanilla buttercream and decorated with a rolled chocolate applique Celtics logo. It was then finished with a rolled chocolate disc wishing Kevin a Happy Birthday and some curly ribbons to coordinate.

Pink Ruffle Cascade

This display cake was inspired by an actual wedding cake that our chef created. With the pretty pink cascade, we thought it was appropriate with Valentine's Day coming up.

The tiers are square and slightly off-set. The cake features our champagne dot design in a pastel pink, and a pink rolled chocolate ruffle cascade.

Rue (of Winnie the Pooh!)

Deklan celebrated his 1st birthday with a Dessert Works custom Rue birthday cake!

The scene on the cake was created out of buttercream and Rue was hand sculpted out of rolled chocolate. The cake was then finished with shooting birthday balloons!

Unraveling Ribbons

Ken & Andy were married recently and we were able to create their wedding cake for them!

Their cake was simply frosted in vanilla buttercream. The focus of the cake was the beautiful cascade of rolled chocolate roses, calla lilies and unraveling ribbons that were all hand-sculpted.
