First Unitarian Church Ordination Cake - Suzanne Marsh

The team that organized the ordination for Jennifer Debusk at the First Unitarian Church here in downtown San Jose were amazed by the first cake we made for them. This time we made enough cake for the whole large crowd that came to celebrate the ordination of Suzanne Marsh. This cake has rainbow baubles, the symbols of the church in the gold discs, a chalice topper, and the stole that the ordained ministers wear. We delivered the cake to the church and met Suzanne’s proud son. It’s a joy to be part of a momentous occasion.

First Unitarian Church Flaming Chalice Celebration Cake

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

This lemon cake with lemon buttercream frosting celebration cake is decorated with the flaming chalice and symbols of the First Unitarian Church in Downtown San Jose for the ordination of Jennifer Debusk. Delivery was a little tricky with Jennifer going down the same hall that we were walking down with the cake.

First hidden behind many people, and then out of sight with the cake, we were shown to the cake table. Many ladies surrounded the cake to marvel at the realistic symbols around the cake, and ask what the symbols were made of and how they were made. Despite speculation that we found molds of these symbols, they were actually hand-sculpted by Amy. She studied the church flyer to be certain to get the symbols just right.

The ladies were so impressed, they had to show us the actual large symbols lined up around the altar. It was great to see these impressive symbols after looking at the pictures for so long to make the miniatures.

If you’re downtown, go visit the First Unitarian Church on 3rd Street. Everyone there is extremely friendly and will welcome you with open arms.

This letter was forwarded to us by Kelly who worked with us on the design of Jennifer’s cake:

Dear Kelly,

Wow! I continue to bask in the afterglow of my ordination. Thank you so much for being in charge of the delicious meal. Many people commented on the wonderful food and helped themselves to seconds. And what an amazing cake! Beautiful, artistic, and delicious. How perfect for an ordination that celebrates the arts and nourishment of the body and soul.
