The talents of Mrs. Evil4blue... - 11-28-2006, 11:25 PM

For my daughters sixth birthday she asked for a special cake to be made. Immediately I though of Steve's wife (Steve is 'evil4blue' on the forum) as she is an award winning cake designer.

I was thrilled when she agreed. It was all very easy on my side. I told her what I wanted, she emailed me some examples and then went to work. I picked it up at their house (yes, I've actually been to Steve's new house - see thread here) and all I can say is WOW! My daughter screamed when she saw it. It was easily the centerpiece of the party.


Now usually when something looks this good you can excuse a sub par taste as a trade-off for the design but in this case... well, all I can say is that if I have ever tasted a cake better than this I couldn't tell you when. I'm not exaggerating here, it was unbelievably delicious. Special note: Every single kid wanted the butt piece (it went home with a grandma).

Here's a few other shots including some of the fine details:






As for price, it was much less than I was prepared to pay (gotta take care of that Steve!).

Seriously, if you like cake I'd email Stevil and make up an occasion. It'll be worth it.

PS. The main reason for the post is that Mrs. Evil is a hidden treasure and one you should take advantage of before she goes big-time.

Absolutely beautiful cake. Very talented wife you have there Steve.

Congrats on Jordan's 6th Birthday Joe! Cherish it while you can because they grow up fast. Mine's 26 now.
