I recently collaborated on a really exciting project with another local artisan. We called it
The Spring Soiree and it turned out to be one of the most fun and creative collaborations I have had the pleasure of being part of! I met Olivia San Mateo of Olive-Route Letterpress
http://www.olive-route.com/# when my friend Hannah of Pie Bird Press http://www.wetfootpublications.com/ recommended her to print my business cards, which she did and every time I give one to someone they comment on how cute they are. I love them.
We became friends and being the supportive and inspired person she is, Olivia suggested that she host at her buzzing workshop a cake showcase. I often look at the invitation to an event as I am coming up with a cake design. So, for this event I (somehow) narrowed it down to five wedding invitations that Olivia had designed and made cakes inspired by those lovely pieces of stationary.
At the actual event we served cake bites in these flavors:
Meyer Lemon Zest, Earl Gray,Vanilla Bean with Rasperries, Toasted Almond and Carrot Ginger
