Vineyard Vines Birthday Cake

A friend of mine recently asked me to re-create a birthday cake that she saw online in the shape of the Vineyard Vines whale. The result was a deliciously simple, vanilla-on-vanilla version of the company's logo paired with prep-tastic cupcakes to match. If you're not familiar with the clothing brand's miniature marine icon, click here to see how I did!






 The cupcakes were also vanilla bean pound cake with vanilla butter cream frosting. I dipped the sides in sugar and garnished with handmade fondant bow ties and pink whales. 




Thanks to Michael's for selling the perfect pink and green plaid cupcake liners to go with this theme.




 The water spouts are made from sandwich toothpicks and are not edible.



This cake will certainly satisfy even the preppiest of taste buds.

    1. Hi Michael,
      I made a template from scratch and used it to carve out the cake in the Vineyard Vines whale shape.
