Feature Friday ~ Confetti Cakes

Pin It now!

Elisa Strauss, owner of Confetti Cakes in New York, NY, has been one of my favorite cake decorators since I first saw her on Food Network's 'Challenge.'  She has participated in several challenges but took home the grand prize in the 'Extreme Cake Challenge' with her, if I remember correctly, 'Revenge of the Sock Monkey' Cake.  Elisa has been featured in many magazine and appeared on several talk shows.  She has even made cakes for shows like HBO's 'Sex and the City.'

It wasn't easy choosing only 6 cakes for this feature so make sure you stop by the Confetti Cakes website to see more.

I have tried making cakes similar to this and it is hard to make the stripes straight.  I also love the idea of a plaid cake.

Gumpaste flowers are one of my favorite things to make and these are gorgeous.

All I can say is...how fun!

I could just squeeze him!  Too cute!

Elisa didn't miss a detail here.  The cake board is the perfect touch.

I'm having a hard time believing this truck is cake.  Amazing!

I know I said 6 cakes but I had to share this one.  What do you think? Pat's or Geno's?













Thank you again Elisa and everyone at Confetti Cakes for sharing your work with us.  Your cakes are a work of art and you are truly inspiring.
