Air Jordan 9 Cake!

This cake was created for a client whose son was celebrating his 16th birthday. They wanted to surprise him with a customized Air Jordan 9 cake using his name "Javetz" as the theme. The usual 23 that appears on each shoe is replaced with 16 and the edible shoe box label and Foot Locker receipt are both customized using the birthday boy's name and age. The "Air Javetz" shoe was done in chocolate fudge and the shoe box was marble fudge (a flavor not on our menu, but created at the client's request). As always this cake is 100% edible :)

The Making of....ATL AF1 Birthday Cake

From time to time I'll be posting "The Making of..." pictures and video to give an inside look at how i bring some of these cakes to life. I've been meaning to do it for a while but it's just been really hard for me to stop while I'm in "the zone" to snap a picture ;) I usually spend on average about 10 hours on each cake...i know, but it's truly a painstakingly detailed process. All the more reason why i wanted to start posting "The Making of..." so that you can really see all that goes into this edible art. Enjoy!
