Happy Monday! We’re kicking off the week with a striking design that celebrates bold patterns and playful color. Black and white offers dramatic contrast and crisp clarity, a timeless pairing that works beautifully on its own or alongside softer tones. While it’s often matched with pinks and corals, this cake demonstrates that black and white welcomes unexpected accents—like a vibrant pop of yellow. Combine stripes, polka dots, and generous ruffles, and you get a perfectly polished confection.
Eva Salazar, owner of Make Me My Cake, crafted this chic design. Her work balances classic elegance with contemporary flair—wait until you see the bold bow that anchors the cake’s center.
From Eva Salazar of Make Me My Cake:
“I don’t really work with yellow much, but I had the occasion to do it and I have to admit that I absolutely love it. It’s a warm color that combines perfectly with the black and white. I also incorporated a big bow in the center.”
Thanks to Eva Salazar for sharing this design and for inspiring us to experiment with bold color contrasts.
