The Making of Sebastian’s Birthday Cake

Here is a fun video depicting the making of Sebastian’s birthday cake the night before his birthday party. The video is a little long but I think viewers will enjoy the pace and end product. And there is a little craziness in the middle, too. Having now posted this video below, in a few days I will post some pictures from the actual party and how the kids received the Buzz Lightyear Birthday Cake… meanwhile, enjoy the production below.

  3. WOW! charles, you missed your calling as a pastry chef! and i thought i was being clever by doing a monochrome darth vader head sculpted in frosting. that was nothing compared to the detail and effort you go to. that cake is as good as or better than nemo was (and i’m sure just even more tasty). i can’t wait to see what you do in february.

  5. Charles…you have created a masterpiece. I can appreciate the half time show…time in the kitchen should always be complimented with a cold beverage and inspirational music. Cameras optional. Athough a photo would not have done it justice…well done!
