It was probably about 12 hours total of work over the course of two or three days.

It was so much fun to make it as realistic as possible. The fondant comes in at the end and brings the house to life. Then, I baked almost eight pans of sheet cake! I stacked it all up and carved it. It was a long process of scaling and measuring it all out. I drew a detailed sketch that included how big each wall is, how big the windows are, and made sure everything was scaled. I wanted to go big! What was the process like? How long did it take to construct? I knew the Heeler house would be a lot of fun for him to see. I wanted my son to be able to recognize it immediately. What inspired you to choose the Heeler home for your son’s first birthday cake?

It’s funny how much you connect with the show and the Heeler family. It’s relatable because so often moms think about the details and dads are the ones who just want to have fun. My wife and I also love the episode “The Pool”. In addition to the Heeler house cake, I also made my son a duck cake as a smash cake. “Duck Cake” is a lot of fun, with Bandit making the cake for Bingo. What’s your favourite Bluey episode and why?

It’s a great show for our son to grow up with. The show is good for adults too, we’ve learned some parenting tips. He’s connected with the show since he was a baby, and now he has the stuffed animals, merch, and clothes. It’s always been a dream of mine to make my son’s first birthday cake, so I knew I had to do something wild for it! Why do you and your family love Bluey?Įver since my son was born, if he was whining at all, we’d put on the Bluey theme song and he’d instantly stop. I started as a cake decorator in high school and now work as a corporate pastry chef for a renowned hospitality group. I’ve lived in Las Vegas my whole life and have been doing pastry for about eight years.
