A Simple Wedding

I was honored to help out a sister of a friend who needed a wedding cake after being told the decorator at the bakery she chose would be on maternity leave.  This was by far the largest cake I have done yet.  It turned out great and the bride loved it!  The cake was devil's chocolate with vanilla cream filling and yellow with vanilla cream filling.

Arrrrgghh Pirates!

A last minute request for a pirate cake for a friends 6th birthday.  I had fun making this cake and getting to sculpt with cake to make the hat.  The little boy loved it and it fit in perfect with the rest of his theme!

Fresh Beat Drums

My youngest daughter turned 2 last week and she is obsessed with the Fresh Beat Band.  She LOVES to play the drums along with Marina, so we decided that a Marina Drum Cake would be perfect to celebrate her birthday.  This time around I tried to get fancy on the inside and dyed the cake turquoise and purple, which are Marina's colors.

Finding Nemo

 I had the pleasure of doing a Nemo themed 5th birthday party for a set of twins.  The cake was white with cookies 'n cream filling.  

Cars for 6

A friend asked if I wouldn't mind making a cake for her son's birthday.  He is all about the movie Cars, so this was the perfect theme.  Chocolate cake with vanilla butter cream was the cake of choice for this little guy.

Princess Party

Finally after 5 years, we did a princess themed party for my oldest daughter.  And what better way to celebrate princesses then with a pink castle!  Both chocolate and yellow cake with vanilla butter cream round out the choices for all the kids who joined us.

Cherry Blossoms

To celebrate the Jukai ceremony last Sunday at our Temple I had the honor of making cake.  The cake was white with chocolate gnashe filling.

Sunflower Doll Cake

This past weekend was my youngest daughter's first birthday.  We went with a sunflower theme.  She wore the cutest sunflower tutu and to match her we did a sunflower doll cake (tradition in my family for your first birthday) and matching sunflower cupcakes (picture to come when I find someone who took one of them on the cupcake tree).

Red Rose Wedding

This weekend I had a chance to do my first wedding cake.  And also my first "on the road" cake.  My family and I drove down to PA for my father-in-law's wedding and I had the honor of making the cake.  The colors were red and white and the bride was carrying red roses.  The bottom tier was white cake with chocolate gnache, the middle was devil's food cake with vanilla cream, and the top was lemon.  The roses are sugar flowers.

Jessie for 4!

For my daughter's 4th birthday she wanted a Jessie cake.  We did chocolate and yellow cakes with vanilla butter cream.  The bottom layer is an interpretation of Jessie's cowgirl chaps and the top is her shirt.  A number 4 belt buckles completes her.
