40th birthday cake: 'abs on the beach'!

This cake is the last commission we accepted before our expectant mum's (Joy) due date.
The little princess is due in 10 days!!!

Our good friend Ivan turned 40 last weekend; we got to deliver the cake and join his party too. All credits go to his lovely wife in terms of the design concept - particularly the "abs"! She wanted Ivan pictured in his dream holiday: 
"relaxing on a tropical beach, in his board shorts..."
 Ivan likes his ginger beer :

We thank your family for the friendship. 
And most of all, thank you, Ivan for joining us in this sugary sweet journey!
