Just a bit more eye candy from April Reed for you to devour as you are wrapping up your day! These cakes are just so beautiful. The sugar flowers look so real, they are just incredible.

April Reed has done it again. This time, she has crafted the most unique, “I-can’t-believe-that-is-a-real-cake” creation…a Modernist Gingerbread House! It’s April’s version of Mies van der Rohe’s mid-century masterpiece, The Farnsworth House, that recently sustained major flood damage. 15% of all proceeds from the purchase of this cake are going towards the restoration efforts.

You’re probably seen April Reed‘s work before, but I’m frankly shocked that I have yet to talk about it on this blog. I’ve adored her work for a while – the sleek modern yet timeless look of all of her cakes always earns points with me. What I probably appreciate most, though, is that they’re not over-designed; they have a contemporary, graphic, and chic simplicity to them. If you’re looking for a great cake design without something over the top, April is a great resource; if you’re not in her area, take a look at her portfolio for a great benchmark designer. Images from April... |
