All for my latest customer, Andrew, who wanted something special for his girlfriend's birthday. He made a specific request for Jack Daniel's, her favorite liquor, and my brain was sent spinning with possibilities: "Should I go with Gentlemen Prefer Blondes straight off my cocktail cake menu or something custom, like a Jack and Coke (oh, the prospect of making a fizzy frosting!) or Apple Jack (paper thin apple slices would make such a unique and pretty garnish...)?"
And in my excitement over the possibilities, I got a little stuck...that is, until my assistant, who works with Andrew (yes, she has a day job), told me that he's almost always armed with a cup of coffee. And with that, I knew I had the perfect cake that both he and his girlfriend could enjoy:
