thank you for visiting my page!

Cakes by Narleen Kristel began in 2009, when she offered to bake and design a cake for a good friend's wedding. The cake was hugely complimented both for design and flavor, that she proudly posted one picture onto her facebook page and shortly thereafter, orders came in one after the other... and the rest is history!

Narleen Kristel has NEVER taken a cake decorating class in her entire life, nor has she ever taken any culinary, baking or pastry classes. She simply has a love and passion for the culinary arts & design, she seeks to continually challenge herself, and most of all, she takes great pride in her work.

alicia's favorite things...



05.15.11
chocolate covered strawberry with fudge chocolate buttercream

the cute story about this cake is that it was ordered by alicia's boyfriend, derek, on the occasion of alicia's graduation from nursing school. just last year, alicia ordered a cake for derek's graduation from college as well. :) both were a surprise... so it was an honor to complete the circle for the couple :) the theme of this cake, was "alicia's favorite things". the bottom cake is covered in tiffany blue, alicia's favorite color. there is a chess piece and an apple on the left of the cake in honor of "twilight" & "breaking dawn". there are mickey ears, a diploma and a grad cap as well... and of course, a stethoscope and nurse's cap, since she graduated from nursing school. however, the topper is a 3-tiered cake of r2d2, which alicia happens to be obsessed with :) it was my first shot at creating one and i think i didn't do too bad :) his arms are made of rice krispies, but the entire body of r2d2 was made in my signature chocolate covered strawberry which is one of alicia's favorite flavors. such a joy to make...and even more happy to see her reaction! yay! congrats alicia!
