About Mrs. Lovebug

For anyone following my early foray into cake country, I can assure you that nothing’s changed. We’re still clueless. In fact, we’re worse than clueless. We’re confused.

We met with adorable Ella, who showed us her portfolio and watched patiently as we loved each cake more than the next. And who wouldn’t? Some options:

I think the word you’re looking for is “totallycompletelyunbelievable.” She said some of those flowers took eight hours to make. Mr. Lovebug is just wild about the topsy-turvy crazy cakes like these:

He thinks they look like something out of a Tim Burton film (in Mr. Lovebugspeak, this one of the greatest compliments you can give). And I like Tim Burton movies as much as the next girl, really I do. Johnny Depp, anyone? But I find myself leaning (no pun intended) towards something more classic, like:

Or even:

Two totally different looks, I know. Of course, one must envision these creations in chocolate brown and pale pink. One should probably draw sketches, but one doesn’t even have colored pencils. One is really rather pathetic.

Perhaps to distract me from my increasingly obvious bewilderment, Ella told us a story about some clients who wanted to put a cake topper on their cake. She said the couple wanted “Snoop Dogg and Linus,” and then went on to explain that she really dislikes putting toppers on her cakes because it sort of ruins her vision, etc…

But we had stopped listening at “Snoop Dogg.” We couldn’t for life of us figure out what sort of weirdos would want Snoop Dogg paired with Linus on top of their wedding cake.

It was only after we left that we realized she meant Snoopy. Classic.

If you’re in Arizona and you wish to partake of Ella’s amazing services (or just feel the urge to salivate), check her out here. Haven’t tasted anything yet, but we have high expectations.

Hahaha that’s hilarious. If I were you, I would have already burst out laughing AT “Snoop Dogg”.

They’re all amazing but I love the first one, and I don’t even like fondant cakes!

For cake #1, the “quilling” look (strips shaped into loops and teardrops, and arranged together to make flowers, snowflakes, etc.) would be easy to tie into other DIY details.

When I look at these cakes, I just can’t stop wondering how much artificial coloring is in that…. for me, your chocolate brown (especially if it’s really chocolate!) and pale pink sounds much more appetizing!

Iris: great call on the quilling paper. And I know what you’re saying about the colors…hopefully mine won’t be too crazy bright.
