Confession Time: Who Do You Have A Cake Crush On?
Decorating By AKA_cupcakeshoppe Updated 9 May 2009 , 6:49pm by Cake-Gal
What so funy is that a lot of my favs are on here talking about their favorites!! Honestly, I love so many of the cakes on CC that I just wouldn't know where to start. I'm just glad that you all share your cake art for to us to admire and get inspired from.
Oh, I must not forget Indydebi and Kakeladi for all their wisdom and advice in sharing their secrets and how to handle just about every situtation from cakes, to business aspects, to how do handle a PITA. I love them both!
I have so many cakers that I stalk that I'm almost embarrased to admit.
Many of them already mentioned and I am in love with even more so for their unabashed generousity!
Toedna, Macsmom, tamivo, and pish are cake GODS!!!!
LOL.. I have too many to list..

aine2.....creative and a wonderful ambassador for sugar artistry
sugarshack.....beautiful work and motivates all levels to learn and enjoy
buddy valasco......just plain beautiful cakes
jkalman (spell?), macsmom, and many others
THANKS to all of you for sharing, being supportive, and making it such a fun art to learn about!!
Who is Buddy Valasco?? I've never heard of him.
I have a few, Edna and Thanh Thanh of course but here's a few that I just really like how different they are:

vlin28 and krissiecakes...
I am so completely and totally shocked to find my name mentioned on this thread. I cannot believe my name has been included in such great company, and I am so flattered by your kind words. Thank you , thank you, thank you! I have been decorating for about 3 1/2 years and love decorating cakes, but I would never in a million years consider myself worthy of a cake crush. You are too kind.
By the way I would have to say my cake crush is sharonsugarshack. I swear by her buttercream DVD.
Thank you again, I am stunned.

jkalman - you had me at the bobble-headed kitty:

My original cake crush who made me say "I want to be able to do THAT!" (before I ever heard of CC) is Bronwen Weber. Not only is she awesomely talented, she's just so darn cute!

Don't be so modest! Your buttercream is absolutely flawless - I stare at your pictures forever, looking for some sign that these are indeed ICING!!! (I have yet to find a flaw!!!) Your designs are very original, great color combinations, and all around beautiful cakes. I completely envy your skill and artistic ability.
So far, I have only been able to copy designs or tweak other people's designs. I don't yet have the confidence to venture out of my copying comfort zone! Where do you live? Can I be your cake apprentice?

(gasps!) Ohhh...she spoke to me...she spoke to me...(looks around) yes she was speaking to me...she used my name...(nudges KrissieCakes) pinch me I think I'm dreaming...never gonna clean my monitor again
Nonsense jaklotz1...you are totally worthy within about 3 seconds (not a million years) of viewing one of your cakes - just long enough for one's eyes to focus in on the design & details!
There are too many to count but just to name 10 of them off the top of my head (and in no particular order ):

OMG...what an honor to be stalked! LOL...thank you so much Kiddiekakes and Xstitcher!!!
Let me see,,,there are sooooo many to choose from....but I always admired Antonia74...for her style and elegant and CLEAN work. There's nothing like a neat cake! And her cupcake towers are just lovely. Not to mention, she's a very nice person! (Hi Helen!)
Well I have to say I love EDNA (tonedna). Her cakes are amazing! Plus, she is willing to share her wisdom and knowledge to others. She is a very busy women and she takes her time to answer each and every one of our amateur questions. I could pm her every day and just talk to her....but then she would just think I'm weird
Would love to meet her. She is a celebrity in my book!
edited to add: if your on my buddy list then I'm stalking your cakes
toneda...I think she has an amazing way of using color
aine2.....creative and a wonderful ambassador for sugar artistry
sugarshack.....beautiful work and motivates all levels to learn and enjoy
buddy valasco......just plain beautiful cakes
jkalman (spell?), macsmom, and many others
THANKS to all of you for sharing, being supportive, and making it such a fun art to learn about!!
Who is Buddy Valasco?? I've never heard of him.
You never heard of buddy! He is been in the food network challenges a few times. And won the last one!
Edna
Nope, I've never heard of Buddy. I have a bit of an attitude against the food network challenges (I've studied under several who have been involved in them and just the behind the scenes horror stories were enough to put me off them). I'd love to see his work though. Does Buddy have a website??

I so agree with you!...The horror stories from them do turn me off. But not from watching, just participating on one. I love my work and enjoy teaching, but the stress of a challenge ...my body wouldn't react well to this. I think Im best at watching them.
This weekend they had one called extreme challenge, and I often wonder why would this designers want to put themselves through this kind of stress!..

Here's a link to Buddy's website:

Besides being on the FN Challenges he's also going to be in a new reality show on TLC called Cake Boss starting Apr 19.
He's also a member here on CC id: buddyV
Adven68 I'm always happy to oblige, I'll be stalking away
sugarshack is probably my #1!
I also love JenniferMI, Tonedna, Jkalman, ooooh there is a lot more
wow KrissieCakes i am quite honored, but i don't think i deserve to have my name even mentioned in the same sentence as most of the people listed on here, lol.
i personally have several cake crushes:
louise - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-photos-by-Louise.html (just love her cakes and cookies!)
sugarshack - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-photos-by-sugarshack.html (everything she does is just sooo perfect!)
aine2 - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-photos-by-aine2.html (she is the one that started my interest in fondant. thanks again lorraine!!!)
jkalman - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-photos-by-jkalman.html (so extremely helpful and the bobble head littlest petshop cake is genius!)
fairytale - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-photos-by-Fairytale.html (her name says it all, i just love her style)
wow KrissieCakes i am quite honored, but i don't think i deserve to have my name even mentioned in the same sentence as most of the people listed on here, lol.
You may not do huge tiered wedding cakes, but I think what you do does deserve some recognition. Your cupcakes are cute, colorful, perfect little swirls of icing, with the cutest little toppers ever.
I see some really beautiful cupcakes that look like little works of art, but they don't look edible to me. I can't imagine biting into a cupcake with all that stuff on it. Your cupcakes are beautiful and look like something that I would want to gobble up!!!
