It's been almost two weeks since Rick made the sculpted Big Island of Hawaii 30th birthday cake, a surprise for our client's boyfriend who is from the Big Island, hence the "F.B.I" sign, an inside joke amongst his friends. Rick sculpted the island out of our peanut butter cake which had this wonderful nutty aroma that kept pulling me into the kitchen. The cake was large, well suited for a "Big Island", and on the eastern side where the town of Hilo lies we placed a custom handcrafted figure of the birthday boy. His girlfriend explained to us that he has a prominent position at the company Groupon and would love to have the company logo on his laptop. Rick and I would like to point out that the guest of honor was not naked underneath the Groupon laptop. He was wearing board shorts in case you were wondering...
The figure is flashing the Hawaii hand gesture for "Hang Loose" known as the "shaka". Rick painted his tattoos on his chest and arm. We love all the custom elements on this cake. It was delivered to Uncle Bo's Restaurant, a hip local bar and eatery near Waikiki and had a lot of heads turning when we brought in the cake to their private party room. Thank you to our client for giving us the opportunity to make this special cake and to virtually revisit one of our favorite places!

I love the "he was not naked under the laptop" comment...kinda feels like a disclaimer should appear on this cake : "No employees from Groupon were harmed in the making of this cake." :)
M
lol! and we certainly wouldn't want any pervy associations with our client or Groupon on our cake either :)
