Rachel's Wedding Cake

I was so fortunate to do Rachel's wedding cake.  It is three layers of white butter cake with raspberry filling, iced in buttercream and coverd in fondant.  It has fondant accents and a ribbon bow.  I love the satin and daisies that the family put around it for a beautiful presentation.


Rachel had an outside reception which was a bit stressful with the weather.  After a while the rain started picking up and a family friend took it upon himself to protect the cake.  I love this picture!  Thankfully the rain didn't last long.

Mandy's Baby Shower


I absolutely love how this cake turned out!  It is a 6 and 9-inch tiers iced in buttercream with fondant accents.

Happy Easter


These are fun Easter cupcakes with buttercream grass with a Cadbury chocolate egg on top.  They are such a sweet addition to an Easter get together.

Lots of Cupcakes


This was a project of about 100 cupcakes. Half are chocolate, half are White Butter Cake.  Because these were going to feed a lot of people, we decided to make half of each flavored filled.  The chocolate are filled with a ding dong filling while the white are filled with raspberry.

Monster German Chocolate Cake

This is a monster of a German Chocolate Cake.  It is 6 layers, 10 inches across, of German Chocolate cake, iced and filled between the layers with the traditional coconut/nut icing made from scratch. This is enough cake to feed approximately 30 people.

Kayla's Birthday Cake


This is a strawberry cake, frosted in white buttercream with fondant flowers.  Happy Birthday, Kayla!

Rainbow Cake

This is a launch of a new series of cakes that are all about the cake.  The outside is simple, but the inside is amazing!  This is a rainbow cake for my daughter's 7th birthday and the guests (eight other 7-year-old girls) told me it "was the best cake ever!"  


The inside is 6 layers of rainbow-goodness.  

The new series of cakes are going to be simple.  Not necessarily white buttercream, but less decoration.

And they are going to be tall.

Next cake:  German Chocolate.  It should be delicious.

Make-a-Wish


I feel so honored to be able to make a cake for Make-a-Wish Foundation.  A very sweet little girl is turning 3 and loves princesses.  The top tier is Sleeping Beauty in a forest and the bottom is Ariel in the ocean.  I normally wouldn't add all the characters around (it's a little distracting), but I wanted to make sure that she had the full sets to take home and play with.

Both tiers are chocolate fudge cake with cream filling and buttercream frosting.  The accents are in fondant.  The carriage is covered in fondant and has all fondant accents.

Dinosaur Cake and Cupcakes



I love these cupcakes and cake.  The cupcakes are layered with 5 colors so when you bite or cut into it, there is a rainbow inside.  They are one of those things that kids go crazy for!  The frosting is a soft, not-as-sweet swirl and topped with a toy dinosaur.

The cake is a chocolate cake with buttercream and dinosaurs that match the cupcakes.  The T-Rex is standing in a bed of buttercream grass and fenced in with chocolate sticks.  It was exactly what this 8-year-old was looking for!

Keldon's Farm Cake


This is a white butter cake with cookies and cream filling, buttercream frosting and fondant embellishments.  The cake is for a 1-year-old's birthday party and he loves his family's chickens so they decided to go with a farm theme cake.  Happy Birthday, Keldon!

Girl and Boy Bugs



These are white cupcakes with buttercream frosting and fondant bugs.  They are so cute for a children's birthday!  Most were done in pink and purple, but the birthday girl decided that we needed to do some for the boys.  I hope they were enjoyed.

Princess Crown Cake

This cake was made for a special little girl turning 3.  The cake is our made-from-scratch strawberry cake with cream cheese filling.  It is frosted in pink buttercream with edible pearl accents.  There is also a white satin ribbon to accent the white pearls.  Our buttercream is uniquely flavored with the tiniest hint of lemon (among other flavors) and is delicious.  Happy Birthday, Arabella!

Candy Corn Cupcakes





I love these cupcakes!  The cupcake is our white butter cake layered yellow then orange and topped with a very soft, not-to-sweet frosting.  This frosting reminds me of a soft cloud and softly accents the flavor of the cupcake.  These cupcakes are perfect for harvest and Halloween parties and all things autumn.

It's a girl!


This cake was made for a baby shower for somebody expecting a little girl.  The theme was based around plates that said, "A New Little Princess" with polka dots in shades of pink and lime green.  The bottom tier is strawberry cake with cream cheese filling.  Our strawberry cake is made from scratch using pureed strawberries and is a taste of summer.  The top tier is white butter cake with raspberry filling and both tiers are frosted in buttercream with fondant accents.

Flower Cupcakes




These are flower cupcakes frosted in pink buttercream with a layered fondant flower with an edible pearl center.  This particular cupcake is chocolate fudge cake that is moist and pairs up perfectly with our cream, ding-dong filling.  The coordinating flowers alternated between white, light pink, and dark pink, with a contrasting center flower.

Rehab Authority Cake


Did you know that Rehab Authority opened a new location today?  This cake was created for their grand opening and everything is edible.  The bottom tier is white butter cake with raspberry filling while the top tier is  chocolate pudding cake with ding dong filling.  Both are iced in buttercream and covered in fondant.  The top tier also has a quilted imprint with Rehab Authority's logo and silver dragees.  The man, table and dumbbells are also hand sculpted.

Decorating Class

I was so lucky to be approached by a friend to give her daughter some decorating classes for her birthday.  Vanessa turns 10 today and she is such a sweetheart.  She did a great job and you would never know that it was her first "real" cake decorating.   Happy Birthday, Vanessa!
