Kawasaki Hat Cake




This is a Kawasaki Hat Cake I made for my friend's Dad. I was really sick with a cold and conjestion, so not my best work here. The writing is a little off center, and the bill is not the right size or in the right place. The "M" on the back is from the Monster Energy Drink. The color turned out good for Kawasaki though.

Farm Animals Cake







This is a cake I made Friday for twin boys. I didn't have a lot of time to work on it, especially the animals. But I think it came out ok. The signs are hand-painted and the animals are made out of fondant. The top tier is chocolate cake, the bottom tier is white cake, and the cupcakes are marble. For some reason I could not get a great picture of the cake, camera operator error I'm sure. But I think you can sort of get the idea of it.

Mom's Graduation Cake


This is a graduation hat cake for my Mom's graduation ceremony this weekend. She went back to school to Virginia College in Birmingham, AL and is finally graduating! She is an inspiration to follow your dreams, and to be successful. I am so proud of her. She has not seen this cake yet, and it is a surprise. So if you see her, DON'T TELL!! The cake inside is super fantastic too. It is Triple Chocolate Truffle Cake. Two chocolate cake layers, chocolate truffle filling, and chocolate ganache. Good Lordy, what could be better!

Shaina's Baby Shower/Baby Shower Petit Fours






This picture was taken before the food arrived.

Shaina had tons of gifts. This was taken before all of the guests arrived.
We had such a great time at Shaina's baby shower today! We chose not to do the traditional pastel baby shower theme, but a more modern
hot pink/black/white theme. We had about 15 friends and family there. We played games, talked, and had great food! I chose to do cupcake petit fours for the shower with hot pink and black daisies on top. Since it is Valentine's Day weekend, I was able to find hot pink cupcake liners! My mother-in-law, Peggy, made cute paper boxes and woven paper hearts to hold the mints and jordan almonds. Thanks to my friend Ashleigh for her help (get well soon!), Trisha, and Peggy as well.

Purple and Black Topsy Turvy Cake

This is a 3-tier topsy turvy cake iced with buttercream, with fondant decorations. It is white cake inside. Thanks, everyone, for continuing to check in on my blog. I have a lot more cakes to post; I still have to go to CVS and get them put on a disk from my phone. Hopefully I'll do that soon, I have at least 10 more to add. Thanks for all of your orders and support!

Mario and Luigi Cupcake Cake

Hooray! We finally got a new camera! This is a cupcake cake made with marble cupcakes and iced to look like a regular sheet cake. Mario and Luigi are hand-drawn. These cakes are fun and easy for a child's birthday party. Some call them "pull-apart cakes".

"Cake Wreck" and Topsy Turvy


There is a funny story with this cake order above. The customer's friend really likes a blog called "Cake Wreck". This blog shows all the mishaps of cake decorating from the time the order is placed, to the time the cake is delivered. The customer wanted to give her friend a bridal shower cake mimicking one of the cake wreck cakes.We also wanted to give it a "walmart tacky" look to it. The bride's name is actually Cari, but she often gets mail with her name spelled Carl so it fits into the cake wreck theme. Her cupcakes were marble, lemon and pumpkin spice flavors.

This is a fun cake for any girl. It is golden butter cake iced with buttercream and decorated with fondant.

Two Deer Cake

I would normally do this kind of cake with color flow, but since it was ordered the day before they needed it, there wasn't time for it to dry. So, I had to draw it out of buttercream instead. I still think it looks nice and is a great cake for any hunter!
