DJ Turntable Cake by Ashley Holt

By Alex in Food & Drinks, Music, Pictures on Aug 1, 2008 at 3:14 pm



Yup, that CD on top spins!

Neatorama reader Ashley Holt made this giant turntable cake for a farewell party for her friend Preston Craig, DJ and founder of the Decatur Social Club (A great accomplishment, considering that Preston is a paraplegic. Oh, and apparently he’s quite famous for throwing awesome parties in Atlanta).

Ashley made the cake in her mom’s kitchen (and completely destroyed it in the process, she said) – she’s now going to Sullivan University to study cake decorating, and is pursuing a side business makin’ awesome cakes (Email her if you’re in Georgia or Kentucky and would like a cake made: CakedUpByAshley AT yahoo DOT com) – Thanks Ashley!

    Nice, but definitely it doesn´t look tasty.

    That cake looks like an actual life-size turntable.
    The little kids at that party who are the ones that are always sticking their fingers in the cake's frosting before its cut, are going to be all over that cake. They'll be "scratching" more than an old mangey hair-less dog.

    I'll be farewelling from the Kentucky Derby next May. Can she make me an actual life-size Thorough-bread cake? It can be of whatever shape, as long as its a thorough bread cake. I don't like those 50% bread 50% headcheese ones.
    They're not exactly the best Cheesecake in the world

    That cake was awesome and Preston is legendary. For the record though, he's not a paraplegic; he's got facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy.
