If you’ve been alive and breathing for the past few years, you would have noticed the Facebook phenomenon that has spread throughout the individual and corporate worlds. Everyone (even grandma) has jumped on board and truly getting “connected.”
This is not ground breaking news. You did not need me to inform you of this, by no means.
In our adventure to bring The Bake Shoppe, Fantastic Flipbooks, A Catered Affair, Events @1418, and Legacy Farms into the Facebook realm, we have decided to merge them together on to one Facebook Fan Page under the Main Event Productions brand. So, why become our fan? What can you expect? Here’s just a few top 5 reasons…
5. See behind the scenes actions. Ever interested in how a cake is assembled? How an event space transforms into a dream come true? How to cook that one dish that gives you that “wow” factor?!?! Through pictures, videos, and updates you’ll get that!
4. Current trends. We never settle for just learning a little. We are constantly trying to improve our skills and stay up to date with what’s popular in style and quality.
3. Get all your needs in one place. Instead of having to jump from one page to another, you can get all of your needs, inquiries, and interests met in one place. That will not only save you time, but save you stress and organizational issues.
2. Latest media coverage of your event, cake, dinner, or party favor. Search through our albums for inspiration or see if your wedding reception was our special feature! We’re here to help you get the vision of your event!
1. Take advantage of discounts, coupons, deals, giveaways, etc. This is my favorite because I’m a constant deal watcher. Be a good fan and you never know what offer might be available for you!
So, what are you waiting for?!! Become our fan because we are a fan of you!!!!!

The Bake Shoppe-3D airplane cake
Who said cake needs to stay on the board? Aren’t rules made to be broken? For this groom’s cake, there was some “take-off” if you catch my drift! Just in case you can’t tell from the pictures, this airplane is not resting on the map-like sheet cake below. Nope! It’s in the air! Technically there’s a stand that’s aiding in the set-up of the plane, but you get the idea!

Wedding Cakes can be like shoes! It’s all about personal preference! Some like flats, others like heels! Some like sneakers, while others like boots! At the end of the day, it really all comes down to the personal style of the bride and groom!
The Bake Shoppe is compiled of a team of specialized designers, bakers, and decorators to capture your dream shoe/cake and make it come to fruition!
For example, take this past weekend’s bride and groom. They have been working to remodel their new home here in Nashville, TN and wanted the groom’s cake to be this house in 2D form! Talk about a not-so-traditional groom’s cake!

Last week we blogged about having the privilege of attending a Bronwen Weber 3D Santa Cake Sculpting Class and now it’s time to show a little about what we learned!
Working with PVC pipes is a new playground for us to play in, so we were very excited to learn how to create our Santa “skeleton” to provide a stronger support system and shape for the big guy!

3D Santa Cake: PVC Skeleton/Support
Amy and I were becoming close friends to our Santa’s!

We then covered the PVC piping with modeling chocolate and gave Santa some curvy arms and legs! His belly is actually made up of cake! We stacked 3 layers of cake and went to carving his pear-like shape belly!

3D Santa
Santa was getting a little chilly so he needed his famous red suit! This was pieced on to his modeling chocolate and cake body out of red fondant!

After Santa was finally dressed, it was time to give him a face, some buttercream hair, hat, buttons, and gloves! And there you have it…SANTA!!!!
