tango video

Tango - Rough Cut from David Kruta on Vimeo.

Heres the tango video that was inspired by the masks i made. fred and i are dancing and my brother filmed.

on that note.. henna cakes!

henna cakes.. these were some of my earliest cakes. the idea of doing cakes started with henna tattoos. Applying henna paste from a cone is practically the same thing as applying chocolate or ganash or piping frosting onto a cake. so here are the cakes that were inspired by my henna designs.

more henna tattoos and street fairs!

couple more tattoos, and my booth at the allston village street fair.

tango de los muertos cake - in operation

here are the frosting photos of the tango de los muertos cake. look at those colors! EEEEK!

tango de los muertos cake

This was the most exciting cake i got to work on! It was for a tango festival called Tango de Los Muertos, here in boston. It was the last one : ( hence the cake.. and the R.I.P. - the imagery for the tango fest is very halloween, very dia de los muertos.. so i used that all over the cake. It makes more sense if you check out their website www.tangodelosmuertos.com but basically that sort of spanish baroque latin american bright colors and lots of flowers thing going on. the photos with the water mark are by Sorin Varzaru. The other is by Marty Katz. And the ones of me frosting are photos that my brother took at the bakery. : )
