That's what a few clients did a couple weeks ago, starting with a girly princess cake for a Abby's 1-yr birthday. The requirements were frilly, pink and purple and I think we accomplished that! The cake also featured a smash cake so that Abby could completely immerse herself in chocolate cake with american buttercream and cookies n' cream filling!
Another option for cakes is a traditional torted 9-inch layer cake, with a not-so-traditional spin on flowers as decoration.
This 4-layer chocolate cake with filling and covered in (my favorite) Italian buttercream, was requested to feature bright pink and blue...the rest was up to us! But I heard that 10-yr-old Noel loved her birthday cake and that is was the hit of her birthday party!
Lastly, if you just need a special cake to make an ordianary day extraordinary, than try our chocolate raspberry merlot cake with fudge icing and sugared rose petals.
Mark used this cake for a dinner party and his parents and relatives from California just raved about it!
Besides being busy with cakes, the Durham Museum Chocolate Exhibit is going wonderfully and The Chocolate Season products have been selling like hot cakes! I've already gone to the exhibit twice, and I recommend trying out this colorful, interactive and truly fascinating learning experience! And if you need one more reason to go, I'll be there the 21st and 22nd handing out samples from 1-4 pm :)
So take this time to find a reason to celebrate life, and help us make that reason something memorable!!

PS- our first trial run of the low sugar truffles were wonderfully received. We're looking at a few flavors like dark chocolate vanilla, chai tea, espresso, lavender, and maybe one or two more. All made with sugar free chocolate, and flavored with organic agave nectar, resulting in a chocolate that has less than 2 grams of sugar in it!
