Peace

I made this cake for a cutie who is turning 8 years old.   I made a cake for her 5th birthday which is hard to believe was three years ago already!  Happy birthday, Lola girl!

It is so sweet to know your costumers love your cakes!

Neon is Back

I love seeing the neon colors of my childhood coming back.  Too funny!  This cake was inspired by those 80s colors, but with a modern twist with the zebra stripes.

My cousin's daughter, Kelsie, celebrated her 18th birthday with this cake!


Dora the Explorer is my nightmare.  I made several attempts to add her to this cake, but either my creative juices weren't flowing or the details of her eyes and body truly are difficult to recreate with fondant.  Whichever it is, I just couldn't pull it off with the quality I would have been happy with.  Instead I created a cute cake for a cute birthday girl.

60th Birthday

This cake was the first time I experiemented with marzipan.  I made the numbers with this almond paste and was hoping to stand the "60" up on the the cake.  The marzipan dried as planned and would have been capable of standing, but my support systen was not sufficient.  So I will have to continue to experiment.

This cake was fun to make.  A little different design than my normal tiered cakes with the square on the bottom.  It is also hard to tell in the picture, but it is a mini-tiered cake ready to feed about 16 people.

Ahoy Matey!

This was an interesting cake for me to make in light of my recent complaint that so many boys' apparel has skulls on them.  From our recent family viewing of the Pirates of a Caribbean movies, Cameron and Cade have taken a liking to pirates.  Knowing my own children, the skull and crossbones seems innocent and playful.   But perhaps I have learned a lesson about judging the clothes someone might select for their children to wear.

Cakes Galore

It has been awhile since I last posted the cakes I have been making so I have a few fun ones to share.

This cake was super fun!  I tried a new product...edible glitter!  The picture doesn't make it real obvious, but the black stripes are super shimmery!  This eight year old diva had a great cake!

 The Chicago Bears is a love of this little girls so she got a super fun cake!

A Boston Red Sox fan at heart recieved this cake for his birthday!

Baptism

My first baptism cake!  Two young girls at my church made the decision to go public with their decision to be a follower of Christ.  I am so proud of them!
