In one of those cant-sleep-instagram-frenzy-rabbit-holes, I came across a bakery in Brooklyn with the most beautiful cakes; Broken Tart. I knew the minute I saw the cakes that (a) I needed to follow Broken Tart on instagram (b) I had to have a cake for Tusia’s 5th birthday party. The cakes are not only beautiful, magical, whimsical, and unique, but they are tasty and delicious. The perfect duo (pretty AND yummy).
The cake arrived in the perfect package. Who says not to judge a book by its cover?
Eat Cake. Yes, please.
Flavors. Since Tusia is the biggest chocolate lover out there, I went with the malted chocolate cake. WIN WIN WIN.
The top! Pretty special.
Side view. A piece of art, that you can eat!
Another view because it is just so darn pretty.
Birthday babe and her cake. I love that it is messy and crazy while also being thoughtful and perfect.
Magical and whimsical, right?
Post celebration. People loved it.
If you are interested in ordering a cake, email them at hello@brokentart.com. And even if you don’t live in the NYC area, follow them on instagram for some cake inspiration.
Pink cake.
Let me tell you who wasn’t happy about wet chocolate cake in the hands of 20 five year old girls in our new apartment. Three guesses.
You serve it in the bathtub, Kenny! Btw., the weather in NYC seems to be on par with Shanghai these days…
Beautiful cake. Wow!
