8-8-8 Preparations and KITV video

When Rick made our wedding cake back in 2004, he woke up at 3am the morning of the wedding to finish it. Today, on 8-8-8, we arrived at work at 4:30am so Rick could finish Jennifer's cake (above photos), in time to deliver our bride Ati's wedding cake later this morning. Ati's cake will be followed by Michele, then Jennifer, then Cat, and finally, Sunny. This makes for a long day, but we love all our 8-8-8 brides and had a blast making their cakes!

Here is the link to the video on 8-8-8 on KITV's news last night. We were called only 2 hours before they came to film at the studio. The pink and green cake in the video was from Carly's wedding last night and the blue one is Michele's cake.

Aloha!

hello

Prior to opening cakelava in Sin City in 2016, we had a sweet little cake shop for 10 years in Oahu, Hawaii. There we had a loyal following from residents, visitors, and the media and won many awards. Sasha runs the business side of cakelava and Rick, our cake designer, has 25 years experience in cakes and is known internationally for cake design and instruction. Before moving to Las Vegas, Rick made cakes in L.A., Seattle and Hawaii. In addition to having their cake shop, Rick and Sasha are the authors of EXTREME CAKEOVERS (Clarkson Potter/Publishers).
