the creation process!


The sugar paste is in place, the creation process starts. the ideas flow in my head, as I had already a theme, the bikini girl. But then comes, how, were etc... I always try to get information about people, what they like, dislike personality and little details that might make the difference. When you are creating a cake for a person, you want that person to identify with the cake, so the details are everything.
In this case, Alessandra loves the beach and have a collection of bikinis, hats , bags and havainas ( brazilian sandals) to go with it. That is why bikini and sandals are matching and bag and hat too. Nothing more proper than to put the beach girl from rio at their most famous beach " Copacabana". Brown sugar and cinnamon create the perfect sand...

Alessandra's cake!


The beach girl from rio... a self confessed bikini crazy... could not have had other cake. Inspired by her love for the beach life and her bikini collection... Although I was born and bred by the sea, I do not have 50 pairs of biquinis!!!
To those who know rio de janeiro, will straight recognize the copacabana famous art nouveau pavement.
