Fashion Mannequin




This crazy fun cake was for a young lady's 13th birthday & she, being an artist almost from birth, designed this entire cake down to it's last detail! It incorporates her favorite doodles on the corset, her favorite bands on patches around the board & her love of neon colors. The checkered belt had her name spelled out in fondant studs & the diamond outline pendant was lined in Swarovski crystals. Inside, the cake was madagascar vanilla with cookies n' cream buttercream filling AND a layer of chocolate crunchies on top of that!

Jailhouse Rock Wedding






The decoration for this unconventional 3 tiered wedding cake was centered around the couple's 50's/jive style reception held at Little Skips in Brooklyn, NY. It also showed the couple's great sense of humor to incorporate a "jail" theme as a nod to what happened when he proposed in central park- they were held up immediately afterwards!! Thankfully they were Ok & went on to get married this summer :o)

Indian Lace Cake




Last week we created this 3 tier wedding cake with peach colored decorations on the sides of each tier that emulated the Indian lace on the couple's wedding invitation. It also featured some light yellow orchids that the couple requested to go along with the decoration of the event location, Kitti Chai restaurant in NY, NY. Inside the top tier was vegan lemon cake with vegan raspberry buttercream filling. The bottom 2 tiers were red velvet with raspberry buttercream filling.

NY Street Pretzel




We had a request to make a birthday cake to look like a "real street pretzel" & this was the result! Inside was vegan chocolate cake with vegan chocolate buttercream. We added some flair we thought would be fitting in an I love NY pin & mustard packets-with one opened & writing out the birthday message on a fondant napkin.

Cranium 30th Birthday Cake


This was the cake for a surprise 30th birthday dinner at a Mexican restaurant last week. It was for a big fan of board games, especially Cranium, so to sit on top of this die cake we made a customized Cranium Wow game piece. Its wearing a logo t-shirt to represent her love of Weezer & it's sporting a sombrero instead of a party hat because it was a Mexican fiesta! The birthday girl is also a notorious fan of sweets & desserts, so we wanted to make something really different for her. We came up with a cake with alternating layers of chocolate brownie & chocolate chip cookie cake & the filling was madagascar vanilla buttercream with chocolate chip cookie dough pieces. You better believe we sampled the scraps, & we definitely have stumbled upon a new Jacy Cakes favorite!

Swirly Dot Wedding Cake


We made this wedding cake this past weekend for a couple that wanted something simple, but elegant. It had dots piped onto the sides in a swirly pattern with royal blue highlights to incorporate the wedding's main color more than just at the bands. The cake inside was chocolate brownie with cookies n' cream buttercream filling, one of the best combos ever!
