San Diego Cake Club Cake Show - Photo Heavy

Each year the San Diego Cake Club holds a cake show. All the proceeds from this show goes to MDA which is awesome. This is the first time I have been able to attend and it was worth driving down to see. I myself would never want to enter as I don't feel I am good enough to do so but I love looking at the talents of other cake decorators.

First we will start with the chocolate entries:

At this point we moved upstairs to view the rest of the cakes.



My Mom, who I took with me, really liked this cake so I guess she is getting this for her birthday next year.

Re: San Diego Cake Club Cake Show - Photo Heavy

okay. You KNOW I could never go to something like that. It would not be safe. They would kick me out for licking the cakes and taking bites out of the cookies.


But, gosh, are they pretty! I just LOVE seeing decorated cakes. And all of those are gorgeous! I love the frog! He's SO cute!

Okay now this table was a combination of many different techniques. You will see everything from gelatin to marzipan/gumpaste molding.
