This cake was made by Kory Lynn Dowe and presented at our church (Hope Alliance) for a family that is moving to Colorado. The images on the cake represent Christianity, the Air Force and Music. The Bibi's love music, he's Air Force for life and they all make beautiful music together! More than once the Mr. & Mrs. Bibi would sing during the 'special music' time and it would bring tears to peoples eyes. The oldest daughter played piano at church - it was always a pleasure to hear her play. This past Sunday the whole family sang together - Mom, Dad, and their two talented, beautiful little girls.
Mr. Bibi mentioned that it was interesting that the cake had the three elements on it and how they really don't go together. But then he said that God makes us like that - we all have different attributes, talents, parts that may seem that they don't go together but it's what makes us who we are.
So - all that being said... Kory wants to come back to the area - she is in Maryland (I think) Rhode Island and is hoping that people here will order her cakes! Her website is pretty simple, but she has some samples there. You have to see the baby shower cupcakes! So stinkin' cute.
If you know someone who is having a special occasion coming up, please check out her site! email her! korykakes@yahoo.com, her mom lives up here and she is willing to come up here.

Oh my gosh! Will she come to California?? I want those!!!
This cake had to be 3 feet tall! And it was yummy. Have to admit that I am not fond of a lot of fondant, but there was a yummy light frosting underneath. Not sure if Cali is on her list! :)
Great post, Michelle - thanks for sharing Kory's website and Dave's ever-thoughtful insight.
I'll ditto-head, too, and say the cake tasted even better than it looked!

Kory is very detail oriented and puts a lot of effort into her kakes. She tries very hard to incorporate people's color preferences and their interests or occasion - wedding, anniversary, graduation, showers, christenings etc. but also adds her own decorating ideas and flair to her kakes. I am always totally blown away when I see them done. She is living in Rhode Island with her husband and really wants to come back to this area to be near family. I can't wait, we miss them dearly.

Ok - LOL - Thanks Sharon for setting me straight! Kory is Rhode Island...not Maryland! You could see the detail and thought that went into the cake and the decoration. It was absolutely gorgeous and YUMMY!
