hey i know someone out ther can help me here!! i need to make a martini cake the beginning of marh so i have a little time here but ,you know ; i just wanted to get some ideas and maybe practice it first.. haha
i was thinking a 1/4 or 1/2 sheet cake with a martini glass (also cake) on top(laying flat) any one have any ideas or photos of similar cakes?? i googled but came up empty handed... please help!!
Have you searched the galleries on CC? I may be wrong, but I think someone posted a cake some time ago that had a martini glass.
thank you so much!! the one from freeds cakes is very close to what im looking for. i love the streamers around the glass to it gives a festive touch imo. thank you again for the search.!!
Hi,
I did a martini shaped cake. Check my profile for a photo. I added an initial "charm" around the stem of the glass for fun too.

hi bbybe, i really like your idea.. is that a full sheet cut down? how did you do the base of the glass?
Hi tabs8774, the martini glass was all cake, it was approx 22 inches in length
I took a couple of 16" square cakes and cut then up and pieced it all together
for the stem I just cut a long skinny piece of cake, and the base ...again just
cut to the shape I wanted. I iced the whole cake in buttercream. It reall was not hard to do.
I hope this helps!
i have one in my photos- it's the cake with all the ribbons, and i found an inexpensive, lightweight martini glass to go on top. it was an 8 inch round with a 6 inch top- but you could scale it any size you want, i always think colors like red and black or pink and green (if they're the cosmo type) look cool as martini color schemes
Smashcakes: I just wanted to say that I looked at the martini cake in your photos & I love it!! Now I just have to think of a reason to make one.
nermal03- that is definitely one cool cake- definitely has that retro feel
ge978- thanks for the compliment- i loved doing that cake, i'm excited because i'm doing another one for a sweet 16- minus the martini glass of course, and a lot more pink- it's actually a pretty quick cake to put together- once the ribbons and bows are done
I just did a search in the gallery using the word "martini" and this is what came up:
