Lucca's Lion

This cake was for a first birthday for a little boy named Lucca. He has a beloved stuffed lion that was duplicated on top of the cake. The little lion was sculpted out of milk chocolate clay. Cake was 1/2 butter yellow with vanilla bean filling, and 1/2 dark chocolate cake with cookies 'n cream filling.

My name is Patty Pittman Asken, I am the designer, sculpter, and owner of sweet P sweets, inc. I attended the School of the Art Instutite of Chicago, and Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. I have a passion for sculpture, which I now translate into the ever growing industry of cake design. I owe a lot to my mom and grandma Fagan for passing down the knowledge of cake baking, and designing with chocolate!!! I now live in Illinois with my ever so busy family of four boys and my husband, or should I say five boys!
