Birthdays should always be special, and the FujiFilm X100 Cake really made it special for one particular birthday boy. Baked for photographer Gary Cruz, this cake is not only unique, but it also is a replica of what I am going to assume is his favorite camera.
Created by his bakery-owning wife Beverly Cruz, the FujiFilm X100 Cake is quite the feat. Extremely true to the actual camera, the cake includes intricate details such as ridges, dials and even writing. Not only that, but the colors are dead-on as well.
Considering that cakes are becoming more and more of an art form thanks to TV shows like TLC's 'Cake Boss' and Food Network's 'Ace of Cakes,' I'm sure more like cakes like the FujiFilm X100 Cake are in store.
