Mucking afazing trailers at Old Mac Daddy
By joining hands with Jody Aufrichtig's Elgin-based Old Mac Daddy luxury trailer park and a handful of creatives, Jaqui and daughter Alexander Biess of Charly's Bakery have extended their repertoire to interior design, producing a confectionaire's delight.
"We pounced on the opportunity," enthused Jacqui, "after all, what is cake decorating but design by sugar? From the start, we knew that we weren't going to be doing it alone. My daughter Alexandra and I enlisted the talents of an incredible team and placed our trusted friend, Carin Cronje of Vanilla Concrete, at the helm as production manager. From there the team and the love just kept on growing."
Airstream trailer pair, Love Cake..? I Do and Love Cake..? Me Too, are a sight to behold; in fact, they're mucking afazing.
Up-cycled delights
The delight is in the detail in the larger of the two, I Do, as it takes a look inside the bakery while integrating steampunk and sugar. Barometer clocks adorn the walls, a chandelier of mechanical clock wheels, metallic beads, cutlery charms, tiny glass pink cupcakes and bridal cake toppers dangle over the bed.
Anthropomorphised steampunk cupcakes sit on the shelves alongside Bashew's bottles and jars of silver cake candy, a tyre-framed mirror hangs on the wall, while endearingly cross-stitched cushions are scattered on the seats. My favourite piece sits at the entrance to the trailer - a printer's tray table housing vintage cake collectables and piping nozzles.
Colour explosion
Love Cake..? Me Too is an explosion of colour, making it perfect for kids. I imagine that the designers involved in this trailer had a lot of fun unleashing their inner child! Rainbows, parachuting cupcakes and truffles, plush gingerbread men, a cupcake seat of footballs, googly-eyed cushions, and a bed built for playtime or sleepy time. Like the colours, the design is big, bold and playful. Love Cake..? Me Too peeks into both the cake and crayon box.
Situated away from the rest of the trailers and the main lodge, the partially secluded Love Cake duo is great for couples looking for a romantic getaway or a family vacation. The wooden deck and lakeside-facing "garden", cordoned off by a white picket fence, adds to the allure, offering a picture perfect escape from city life.
Delighted with the end result of the Love Cake trailers, Aufrichtig commented: "Our most popular trailers are always the ones that tell stories, share secrets and make people smile, these new trailers do just that."
