Introducing Gilbert and Gracie - Gator Wedding Cake Toppers!


Let me first start out by saying; I am spoiled (In a good way, though). I have always had a themed birthday cake created by my mom every year, and now my children do too. I have never had to go to a salon to get my hair done, and the layette for both my children's rooms were specially made by hand. And photo albums: hand designed. Oh, and don't let me forget, growing up my sister and I even had matching dresses, not from a store...

So, with that being said, it should be to no surprise that my mom, Kathy, is a creative and crafty artisitic genius. She has many talents and I am so lucky to have her as my mom.



Now, being in the cake business and living in the Gator Nation, what is every bride looking for? You got it Albert and Alberta Wedding Topper. Guess what, they don't exist. Does my mom let that stop her? No! So, without further ado, introducing Gilbert and Gracie Gator custom made by Kathy at KB's Kake Kreations. Aren't they cute? And of course hand crafted. Like I said, so talented. You can now have your Gator Bride and Groom Topper courtesy of KB's.
So, the next time you think about a Gator themed wedding, think KB's Kake Kreations.

Of course, even if your not a gator fan, we can make anything your heart desires. At KB's we are proud to personally design your Kake Kreation for your special day. We want to kreate your sweet ending to your dream wedding!

My mom will probably shoot me when she sees this post, but I love her so much and want everyone to realize how talented she is, it's just in her blood! No wonder she was "Best Pick of the knot weddings 2008".

Long Distance Planning

"The cake was beautiful. The filling was delicious. We really liked the little honeymoon cake to take with us. What a nice touch. I barely remember tasting it at the actual wedding so it was nice to have some later. I didn’t plan it this way but check out how the cake is similar to my dress in this picture:"

Vicki Richardson


For those of you who may feel it is impossible to plan your wedding cake over the phone or via e-mail...it can be done, and done well! When I first heard from Vicki she knew what she wanted. She told me what she was visualizing and we created.


Now, keep in mind, we had never seen pictures of her dress or had a color swatch to go on.





When I saw the pictures taken by Amy Oxner I was thrilled. Not only did the color palette match but the dress looks like it was the inspiration for the cake.





So, remember if you are unable to meet with us in person we can still create your sweet ending to your dream wedding. It is rare to never meet with a couple prior to their wedding, but it can be done! We are now offering our appointments using web cam technology. So whether you are out of town, or just extremely busy and have scheduling issues...we can still talk face to face via web cam.









Vicki, you were a joy to work with, truly a breath of fresh air. I am thrilled that you were happy with your cake. I hope to one day meet you and Ken, but for now Congratulations on a Long and Happy Marriage from KB's Kake Kreations!

BIRTHDAY CAKE

This is what it's all about!!!!





That face says it all! Last Monday was our granddaughter's 7th birthday! Layla is my "angel girl". Layla has always had an interest in the cake business...She says she is my "junior assistant" and will take over the business when I "get old". She makes some pretty impressive play dough roses!!!






She has certainly challenged me with her cake designs through the years...we have done Owl's tree house with Winnie the Pooh and friends, Cinderella's carriage and a Hawaiian Island complete with a volcano. This year she is all about horses!






So I gave her a variety. Stacia the Mustang, Cross the big Warm Blood, Nevada the Quarter Horse, Cory the Palomino, River the Paint, and Sheik the Arabian.






It was a great party and the adults as well as the kids had a blast!!! Thank you Layla for all the joy you continue to give me. I hope this year is filled with wonder, joy and great surprises!!! I am so blessed to be your grandmommy!!!!!!!!!!!!
