Kaitlyn Helps Hannah Celebrate Kicking Cancer’s Butt!
At Icing Smiles, we love to hear from our Sugar Angels about their favorite cakes. For Sugar Angel Kaitlyn of Hummingbird Confections, one cake that stuck out in her mind was a cake for Hannah, full of her favorite things to commemorate kicking cancer’s butt! To start off her masterpiece, she began with a list of things that Hannah loved. The list was diverse: from fishing to painting, music to butterflies, Hannah was a girl of many interests! It was also very important that the cake featured purple and blue, Hannah’s favorite colors.
With a design on her mind, Kaitlyn set off to make the perfect cake to celebrate Hannah’s remission. Anyone could make a cake with just one theme, but Kaitlyn’s mission was to display each and every thing that Hannah loved to do and see. Magically, she pulled together all of Hannah’s varied interests and made a mega cake, tailor made for Hannah!
When creating a cake with many elements, Kaitlyn likes to create a cohesive look starting with the colors. She chose to accomplish this with this cake by showing off her skills with a beautiful watercolor base that served as a sophisticated canvas for all of the other cake elements. Each tier was unique, but effortlessly flowed into the next. From the artful painting themed topper down to the music themed bottom tier that hit all the right notes, this cake was a major hit!
Icing Smiles is so grateful for all of our Sugar Angels that pour their heart and soul into each cake they make. Beautiful custom cakes like these help us fulfill our mission of baking up smiles for so many deserving kids. Thank you to Kaitlyn and all of the Sugar Angels for all that you do to help us Bake a Difference!
With Smiles + Cake,
