Recommendation for groom's cake

Hi :) Can anyone recommend a bakery that is really good at designing cakes with pictures on them? I'd love to get FI a groom's cake with Sparty on it. I've seen cakes where the bakery promised a certain design and then the cake wound up looking like a haggard David Hasselhoff or mutant dinosaur...I'd like to avoid that.

I was planning on just stopping by local bakeries and seeing if they could do this, but hoped someone on the board would have a recommendation.

FI would be soooo surprised/happy if I did this for the wedding :)

Thanks :)

    I would definitely check out Home Bakery in Downtown Rochester. I have never ordered a cake with a picture on it but I'm impressed by everything they do.  So, definitely worth looking through their portfolio...and sampling their cake.

    I'm getting my cake from Elite Sweets in Livonia and for the grooms cake they are making a chicago style hot dog (Fi's favorite - it's a surprise for him).  It will be 3d, and since I haven't seen it yet, I obviously can't comment, but their cake is delish, and if they can make a hot dog, I imagine they can make sparty!

    Found this by googling (not sure you want to make it yourself though, but it should be easy to do if the cake is shaped like the Spartan logo)

    I got my grooms cake from Cakes by Deb in Wayne. I ordered it sight unseen, based off of a friends rec. It was a 3d sculpture and huge. I HATE chocolate with all my heart, but ordered a chocolate cake with fudge filling and buttercream frosting for my husband. I tasted it and it was seriously delicious! Super moist and fluffy! Almost makes me want to like chocolate!

    We are getting our cake from Home Bakery in downtown Rochester. They were great they worked with us to get everything in our budget and still get the cake we wanted. I have seen alot of their cakes and I am pretty sure that they could do a spartan. Plus their cake is really yummy!

    I've gotten several themed birthday cakes from Party Cakes in Berkley

    They have all been awesome! But they are a bit on the expensive side. I paid $90 for my son's thomas birthday cake (1/4 sheet cake)

    I had Sorella's in Livonia make DH a Playstation 3 shaped cake as his groom's cake.  They did an awesome job, I'm sure they could do Sparty.

    I'll add a picture when I can find a darn one.
