{"product_id":"vintage-bow-cake","title":"Vintage Bow Cake","description":"\u003ch2\u003eVintage Bow Cake — Extraordinary Detail, Endlessly Elegant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a cake you glance at — it's one you stop and study. Our Vintage Bow Cake is a masterpiece of handpiped buttercream artistry, featuring a two-tone colour palette, sweeping pearl swag decorations, intricate shell and ruffle borders, and a beautifully sculpted fondant bow as the centrepiece. Available in your choice of colour, it's the kind of cake that photographs like a dream and tastes every bit as good as it looks. Made fresh to order by our award-winning Melbourne team.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Cake\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery element of this cake is executed entirely by hand. The smooth buttercream sides provide the backdrop for row upon row of intricate piped detail — draped pearl swags that sweep gracefully around the cake, fan shell borders framing the top and base, delicate ruffle frills, and carefully placed pearl accents throughout. A large, sculpted fondant bow sits at the top corner, tied as if the cake itself is a gift waiting to be opened. The two-tone finish — your chosen colour paired with white or cream piping — gives the decoration its extraordinary depth and dimension. It is, without question, one of the most striking cakes we make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCustomise Your Cake\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose your preferred buttercream colour at checkout — the piping and bow will be styled to complement your chosen shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double layer as standard — select your preferred tier size at checkout to suit your number of guests\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCake flavour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose your preferred flavour from our full range at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFillings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Select your preferred filling to complement your chosen flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFondant lettering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add a personalised name or message in fondant lettering on top\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShimmer spray:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add a shimmer spray finish for an extra touch of glamour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For Any Occasion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vintage Bow Cake suits any celebration that deserves something truly special.
