I wanted a to get a whimsical birthday cake for a girl friend.  A friend of mine that recently got married suggested that I use the baker that made their wedding cake which was The Sweetest Day.   I saw a cake I liked on her website. I called the owner, Stephanie, and talked to her about the design. She helped me personalize the design over the phone which saved me a trip.  The cake turned out great.  It didn't cost a whole lot more than a grocery store cake and the look was amazing.  If you want more than a cake with happy birthday on it, I would definitely recommend The Sweetest Day.
