Tea Party Cake

I love how this tea party cake turned out! I was given free reign to design a cake for a 4th birthday tea party (from an amazing customer ;) )and came up with this design. I made the tea pot out of rice krispy treats and fondant and everything else was buttercream with fondant details. I must say this is one of my favorite girly cakes so far.

iPhone 5 Cake

This cake was pretty exciting for me to make since my hubby and I JUST entered into the 21st century and got our first smart phones (iphones)!! I tried to get the dimensions exact on this cake so I measured mine and multiplied it by 4.

Minion Cake

I'm lovin' these little minions lately. After I made this cake, we ended up having a family movie night and I watched Despicable Me2 for the first time....it was too cute! 

This cake is a 3-D cake that I made with several 8"round cakes. It is covered and decorated with fondant. 

Toy Story Cake

I have a lot of fun cakes to post about! The last few months have been pretty busy with lots of fun birthday cakes. Kid's cakes are my favorite. I love how this Toy Story first birthday cake turned out....

I made the cake topper out of gumpaste and the cakes were buttercream with fondant details.

Frozen Cake and matching cupcakes

This is quite possibly one of my most favorite cakes I have made recently! I love how it turned out, and even though I haven't seen the movie, it sure was fun to make Olaf. I made all of the snowflakes out of royal icing by piping them onto parchment paper and letting them dry over night. My favorite part of the cake is the snow sprinkles and pearls. It was quite an appropriate cake to make this week since we have had frigid temperatures and a pretty big snow storm for NC :)

Fire Truck cake and cupcakes

I made this sweet little cake and cupcakes for my friend Preethi's little boy. Landon loved watching me make it and especially liked the "baby firetrucks" (he likes to call everything little "baby") on the cupcakes.

Train Cake

I love this sweet birthday cake! It was covered in all fondant and I made the little train from fondant as well. 

Pumpkin Carriage Cake

 My friend Dianna ask my to make this precious cake/ matching cupcakes for her boyfriend's daughter who turned 5. I haven't met them yet, but I hope to soon! I LOVE how the cake turned out and it was a perfect combination of Fall and Cinderella.

Hot Air Balloon Cake and Cupcakes

Last weekend, I had a pretty cake crazy kitchen! I made this cupcakes and cakes for a little girl's first birthday party as well as the baptism cake below. I made it from sheet cakes and cut out the dress shape. Dave and I have had plenty of extra cake around here this week! 

Mickey Mouse Baseball Cake

I made this Mickey Mouse birthday cake for a 2nd birthday party. I had free range to do what I wanted - I love those orders! I just had to incorporate Mickey Mouse and baseball. It was a triple chocolate cake and was covered in buttercream and fondant. I cut Mickey out of fondant and used royal icing to outline him and add the stitching to the baseball. 

Annnnddd here is a pic of my little helper. He loves to lick the spoon ;) 

Bounce House Birthday Cake

Bounce house birthdays are very popular lately so it was fun to make a cake to go along with the theme.  I made this two tier, chocolate and vanilla cake for a recent birthday party. It was really special because I have made a cake for this family (twin boys) the last few years :)  Anywho, I used the invitation as inspiration for the cake. I hope they had a fun time at their party!! 

Oh yeah, I was playing around with picasa and thought this setting made the cake look really cool.

Over The Hill

I recently made this cake for a 40th birthday party. I have never made a tombstone before but I think it turned out kinda cool! I made the tombstone out of fondant and had to let it dry for a couple of days so it would be strong enough to stand up. It was lemon pound cake and was covered with buttercream with fondant details.
