Sweet Words

There are some critiques that I perform that simply leave me speechless. Today’s critique with Ai Cakes is one of those times. Just wait until you see the photos of her cake sculptures–made just for me. I curtsy to Ai Cakes.Iriene Wang is a cake artist and perfectionist. She impressed me beyond words by design, taste, and personality. Lovely woman!Iriene Wang impressed me upon my arrival for her cake critique. She presented me with three mini-cakes decorated to an extent only reserved for truly special occasions.The first cake was a beautiful three layer cake called “Forgiven but not forgotten.” It was made from egg yolks and is an Indonesian recipe. I have to admit, an egg yolk cake did not sound appealing, but once tasted, I fell in love with it. The cake was moist and had a chocolate/slightly mocha flavor to it. The outside of the cake was equally impressive, as it was pink fondant with The Cake Critic performing critiques at a table full of cupcakes. :)The second cake was coffee cake. Beautifully decorated on the outside as a cup of coffee–only not in an everyday ordinary mug. This mug was a peacock, full of hand painted colorful feathers. IMPRESSIVE to say the least! Beautiful decorations, delicious cake, one which I would definitely place an order for in the future.The last cake was a peach mango cake, a new recipe. It had raspberry jam and fresh raspberries in the middle with buttercream and the outside was decorated as a gift. This cake was interesting–not too sweet, not overly moist but the jam and fruits soaked it a bit, making it a very interesting combination of taste and texture. It was very enjoyable not only to me, but to my husband, who scarfed down the rest of the cake once I brought it home.
Ai Cakes is going places in the Raleigh area. Mark my word. Iriene Wang will make it happen. She is a perfectionist in cake decorating and belongs with the best of the best. |

Everyone LOVED the cake, it was sooo pretty, I didn’t want to cut into it! And it tasted great, my husband said the whole drive back home he could smell the cake and wanted to eat it. My son’s birthday is in December, so I will probably be ordering his cake from you too, I’ll just make sure I don’t wait til the last minute. Thanks so much!!! |
