"I Did"

Yep, I did my first wedding cake! My Dad was getting remarried and he and his lovely bride asked me to do their wedding cake. I'm not sure which was more stressful, getting the tiers on or getting it to the reception...but I think it turned out pretty good for my first one. The cake is a 3 tier yellow cake with buttercream icing, covered in fondant and decorated with ribbon and edible pearl candies. The cake topper is real flowers, like they used in the wedding.

A buggin Birthday

A friend of mine was having a "Bug and Snake" party for her son's 6th birthday (Happy Birthday Matthew!) And wanted a cake and cupcakes for the party. The cake and cupcake's are yellow cake with buttercream icing. The cake is decorated with fondant and the cupcake's are decorated with crushed Oreo "dirt" and plastic bugs the kids could keep. The poor kids never got to eat the cake as squirrels attacked it while they were on a nature walk....but at least it looked cute ;)

I'm Back!!!

I'm back from a nice long beach vacation, and have lots of cakes to share :) First up is a princess cake for my beautiful niece Abigail who was turning 6. The cake is a yellow cake with buttercream icing and is covered and decorated with marshmallow fondant.

The same weekend I did a cake for my Aunt Patti's anniversary (Happy Belated Anniversary Patti and John). His favorite cake is a spice cake, so this is a spice cake with buttercream icing.
