Cakes for Celebs


     Everyone likes having cake at a party or special event. A lot of the cakes Buddy has made have been for famous people.  A few of the ones that I think are interesting are when Buddy and his family made a cake for Snooki, The Regis and Kelly show, and Rachel Ray.


     Snooki from the show Jersey Shore came into Carlos Bakery hoping that Buddy could make her a cake.  She told Buddy that the cake would be for her mom and that she hadn’t seen her in a long time.  Snooki wanted half of the cake to represent her mom and the other half to represent her.  Buddy asked her questions to find out what kinds of things Snooki and her mom like.  This cake turned out really cool.  The half of the cake that represented Snooki’s mom was decorated with a modeling chocolate figure of her mom gardening with bright assorted flowers.  The other half was decorated with modeling chocolate figures of Snooki and her guy friends that she refers to as her “Gorillas.”  The figures looked like they were fist pumping on the Jersey shore.  When Buddy and his family delivered Snooki her cake, she and her family were thrilled with how great and realistic the cake turned out.



     Another famous person that Buddy made a cake for was Regis from the Regis and Kelly show.  Regis was actually invited to come to the bakery for a day and observe Buddy and his family at work.  Buddy had Regis try to decorate a cake of his own.  Let’s just say decorating cakes wasn’t Regis’s specialty.  Buddy made a cake for Regis and Kelly and delivered it on their show.  He made a three-D cake that looked just like Regis and Kelly.  He made each separate and incorporated detail that resembled each of them.  The cakes were a big hit. The cast and guests said it tasted great!



     This next celebrity loves to cook and has her own show, Rachel Ray.  Rachel went to Carlos Bakery and explained to Buddy that her five year wedding anniversary is coming up soon.  She told him that on her next show she wanted to surprise her husband with a cake made by Buddy and his family to celebrate.  Rachel showed Buddy a picture of a castle in Italy where she and her husband got married.  She told him that about 130 people would be at the show.  Buddy immediately came up with a plan for the cake.  He wanted to make a replica of the castle.  Buddy did just that.  It turned out amazing! The cake looked exactly like the picture Rachael showed Buddy.  Her husband was so surprised when he saw the cake. 




     Carlos Bakery is becoming more famous every day.  More and more celebrities are coming to Buddy asking for one of Buddy’s specialty cakes.  Buddy is always up for the challenge!!
