It takes the right colours to bring your cake alive.

Vanilla 7 inch, with buttercream, white chcolate decorations with palette knife accents and fresh strawberries Serves 10-15 $130

When designing this cake, I considered the 3 requests shared by the customer. She wanted to use the cake to celebrate 3 different birthdays of varying ages – 13, 16 and 73, incorporate fresh strawberries and use bright colours. So rather than choose the same old primary colours, I wanted to use a palette of colours that would suit the varied ages that really offset each other.

I found color palette #4164. I love this site! I love the way it reproduces colour palettes that display the beauty of real life.
