Fresh Beats + DiY Record Cakestands

Post by Becca of CAKE

A few new projects to share with you this week… naturally, I think this one rocks. A client wanted a DJ for her son’s 2nd birthday in the park, so we came up with a ‘Fresh Beats’ theme, incorporating bright colors and a throwback style. I designed a record invitation and retro envelope liner, as well as creating these simple record cake stands by hot-gluing upturned martini glasses to the base of some classic vinyl. So easy! The cupcakes were blue velvet {a twist on red velvet} as a nod to rock icon Elvis. We ordered toppers from Lynlee’s Petite Cakes in the shape of records, headphones + boomboxes and she completely out-did herself with these detailed designs. The favors were small musical instruments and custom CDs.
