Loved being part of this! Amazing team and amazing images….can’t wait to see more!
love the balloons!
and the donut tower, the only thing that could have made it better would be chocolate 😉
Omg the donut cake – I could have used that today. For sure.
Are you sure it is donut hole cake?? Isn’t it croquembouche??
Yes Petra, it is a donut hole cake! I was inspired by croquembouche but donut holes were easier for me to make…it was also delicious to eat once we were done snapping pictures of it 😉
I love the donut hole cake. I want to make one for my son’s birthday. Did you use a styrofoam cone and use toothpicks to attach the donut holes? How many donut holes did you use?
Hey Nicole! Yep, I just used a styrofoam cone from the craft store and toothpicks. It took a lot more donut holes than I was expecting. I think about 3 dozen or so. If you don’t want that many donuts just get a much smaller cone 🙂
How did they attach the garland to the balloon?
Planning a baby shower and ran across these pics. Balloon garland is a perfect to celebrate new life soon to be. Donut hole cake just replace cupcakes
