A lot was done to the cake that made it represent BOB. Its artist, Mary Harmon: "I
spent the day with the owners of the Oyster Bar. We took many pictures
and then they decided what has special meaning to them. The swirls
actually are about an artist in New Orleans who paints in swirls and he
is a friend of theirs. The lights at the top can be found in the Oyster
Bar requested by John the owner. Of course the music figures and all
the signs can be found inside. The cracked 250 stands for all the mirror
glass that can be found on the walls. And last but not least their
logo. The Oyster Bar is a fabulous place to dine and listen to great
music. Tell them Gina sent you...........ha I also painted the base of
bricks. This cake took over 3 weeks to paint and it was a JOY!!!!!!".
Thought I'd show a little downward shot of the nice decor in and outside of the cake |
