Griff (Jeffrey) was born in the '60s and his 40th birthday party was a '60's theme . . . Wife thought an afro would be cute and it was -- however, after spending hours on the internet looking for a cute afro image for the cake, and several hours baking and decorating this 11x15 double layer with chocolate ganache filling, it was NOT picked up and therefore, not paid for and Cake Dots got ripped off and Griff never got to eat his birthday cake. Nice huh?

A little tidbit: Cake Dots is a dedicated, died-in-the-wool, true fan of Charm City Cakes, aka, Ace of Cakes on the Foodtv network. And, even though we do our best at creating beautiful and one of a kind cakes, we are not Ace of Cakes but we think we are pretty good at creating -- considering we are home-grown. But you must keep in mind that "special order" sculpted, 2-D and 3-D cakes are a lot more work than you can imagine and we think our "special order" cake prices are pretty darn reasonable. As you know, there is a difference between Baltimore, MD prices and Columbus, OH prices and where Duff has a minimum price of $1,000 per cake, Cake Dots has a minimum of only $25 for party cakes and $75 for custom 2-D and 3-D cakes. All of our cakes, as are Duff’s, are not just baked and slapped with icing, they are lovingly created.
BTW, while you are at it, check out Duff's fantastic website (Charm City Cakes) -- you will be amazed at what he and his staff can recreate. He and "they" are my heroes.

Slick Watts received a Best Midwest Artist Award at the Underground Music Awards (NYC) in 2009 and his birthday cake was to have a replica of that award made out of sugar. Well, as you can see, the award did not turn out completely clear but the engraving worked fine. However, shortly after the sugar award was placed on the cake, it began to crack and the second picture is the final result. As many of you know from watching FoodTV Challenges, sugar is not the easiest thing to work with. We hope Slick liked his cake (since he had no idea of how it was "supposed" to look in the first place! :)
