I am officially jealous of this cake. Jealous of the receiver, jealous of the people that could actually create and design this, jealous of all who helped eat it. This is indeed a cool cake. Looks like this was given as a gift for a 21st 26th birthday. And while so many people equate lots of shots on their 21st 26th, a designer handbag cake would have been up my ally so much more. This is a Gucci Cake complete with a Gucci Boston Bag on top of a Gucci Box. Even the little cookie would have made my day. I can not imagine the price for a cake like this, novelty enough that it would end up being totally ridiculous, but isn’t it amazing?
I am now rethinking our wedding cake. Why did we go traditional when I could have had a full fledged designer handbag cake for all of our guests. My birthday is coming in September though. Instead of Gucci, I would prefer more of a Chanel or Hermes. Just sayin’. [Image via Flickr]
it’s adorable, though i think it’s a 26th birthday cake. hence…”21st..+5″
some people never get older than “30″, i guess this lucky fashionista never gets older than 21.
For the price of that cake….they probably could have bought the real bag!
Apparently I can not read today….
In South Florida you’ll find a lot of designer handbag cakes. Last year we were looking for a very specific cake for my niece’s birthday and time and again we came across these beautiful designer cakes and that too at relatively reasonable prices.
I think for Wedding nothing is better than a timeless traditional cake.
Do you remember any of the places Dela?
OMG!!
I love this cake!! I hope it was just as yummy as it looks!
Two that I remember off the top of my head are
cakesuniquebyamy.com
dessert design [passionforpastry.com]
A friend of mine got an LV cake at cakepalace1.com
I created the above cake for a fashionista’s birthday party in Soho. The cake was ordered by her boyfriend who also gave her the actual bag as a gift! The “bag” was an old-fashion butter pound cake filled with vanilla/almond buttercream and the “box” was also butter pound cake fiilled with fresh strawberries and french vanilla mousse! Melanie – believe it or not the cake actually cost less than the bag
can you tell me what size was the cake purse & the box
i am haveing somewon make 1 for me but thay told me the
purse whould be only 8-inches & the box 10 inches please if

How much did you charge. My friend is making purse cakes now, but has no idea what to charge.
Thanks Tiffany
WHAT CITY DO YOU LIVE IN I WHOULD LIKE YOU TO MAKE ME A CAKE
The cake is quite creative, but it’s not a good look for a wedding ceremony. Stick with your traditional lines.
Speechless, I love it!!!
Start practicing for my Chanel bag!!!
Tacky, tacky, tacky. Did you see on Real Housefraus of Atlanta when one of the ladies had a LV cake. Silly goose.
I liked the LV Dodge Ram much better.
Otter, you sound jealous, jealous, jealous…maybe your spelling(Housefraus?) should be as meticulous as Suga Brown’s amazing creations.
to LDJ
my understanding is the Gucci Cake was for a 26th birthday party and not a wedding…get your facts straight before commenting incorrectly.
Sea-Otter, thanks for the sip of hater-ation juice…ahhhh refreshing cause it’s from a sour lemon like yourself! Get a grip and deal with the fact this cake is a hit whether you like it or not.
I am not a logo bag person in real life, but these bag cakes are fabulous. To me they are like a piece of pop art.
rosebudd, I am pretty sure LDJ was referring to Megs’ post (second paragraph of Megs’ entry).
Brownsuga – I envy your job! I only wish I had this kind of talent…well done, you!
Brownsuga, you are so talented, this cake is amazing! I would certainly love it for my birthday since it may the closest thing I’ll ever have to any Gucci haha *sob*
