New Filling!

I recently discovered the BEST chocolate mousse filling ever!!  it is so smooth and creamy.  I could literally just eat it with a spoon!!  you can use it as a frosting or just as a filling!  paired with my chocolate buttermilk cake!  yuuuuuuummmy!!!

Way too many cakes for a simple fun title!

I have had quite a few fun cakes since I last posted!!  I had three all in a row for the same family!  First one was a pirate themed cake,  it was chocolate cake with chocolate filling!  super cute!!! This cake was for her husband who just died over this cake!

 The next one was this cute panda cake!  It was white cake with vanilla buttercream filling and vanilla buttercream frosting!  It was for an 11 year old girl who absolutely loved it!

 This next one is fun!  It is a minecraft creeper cake! it was a white cake with a chocolate filling.  He turned 9 years old and said that I was the best cake maker in the world!!  Love hearing that!! Needless to say they were all very pleased with their cakes

 This next one I did for my hubbys birthday!  He absolutely LOVES German Shepherd dogs and had to give his baby up a few years back!  so I wanted to make this one special for him and put a pic of his dog on the top.  Its edible paper, so everything on the cake was edible.  The cake itself is Chocolate with peanut butter buttercream! 

 I absolutely adore this next cake with the cowboy theme!  The hat is made out of rice crispie treats and the cake itself is Chocolate with peanut butter buttercream!  such an incredible combination of cake!  Its one of my favorites and a really popular flavor!

I have three cakes so far for august and cannot wait to get started on them and share them all with you!!  I love making cakes so much!  I love even more helping make special days sweeter!! 

Baptisms, Birthdays, Cake Emergencies and Flashes of Life!!

Weird title right? Well this past weekend I had 1 baptism cake and 2 birthday cakes!  Totally rocked the whole three cakes in one day thing!  So bring on the orders if you want a cake!  

This first cake was for a little 2 year olds birthday!  His mom wanted mickey mouse and really liked the shape and colors of this cake. It's white cake with a chocolate buttercream. The bottom tier was red chocolate buttercream and the top was covered in fondant.  I loved the polka dots and the number on this cake!  So much fun!

This is the other birthday cake for a friends dad.  He obviously has varied likes and so I tried to put what I could on top.  All of the tools and sports stuff is made out of fondant and hand painted by me.  The cake was chocolate with a chocolate cream filling.  It also had chocolate fondant covering the outside!! so yummy and smelled delicious!

 

This last cake was a really fun one!  It was for a baptism.  It was a white cake with a lemon curd filling on one side, and a strawberry curd on the other.  The frosting is a vanilla buttercream with cute pink scroll work and daisies! 

Polka Dots and Cut Fingers?????

I totally cut my pointer finger to day while I was leveling a cake I was using for a birthday cake I was making. Now i know what you are thinking.......did any get on the cake!?..........no.  I really sucked though!  It was hard decorating the cake with a bandaid on!  But the cake turned out really cute!  It was a strawberry cake from scratch with a from scratch strawberry filling!  I didn't taste it all together but separately the cake and filling tasted amazing!  I hope the family thought so too! The smaller cake was a smash cake for the little 1 year old to dive into!

Barney Wedding

I had the opportunity to make a wedding cake for a family friend this past week.  From the moment I saw the pic of what she wanted I thought "I have to do this wedding cake"  Thankfully they wanted me to do it as well.  It was so incredibly stunning!  I made her a lemon cake with lemon buttercream.  The decoration was what I could only describe as fondant petals coming off the cake!  We used yellow stargazer lilies and blue orchids on the cake.  Here are the pics of the completed masterpiece!  I got such a great compliment from the photographer (who I hope will send me some of the pics he took of the cake), he said "being in this business, I have seen literally hundreds if not thousands of cakes and this one is one of the most unique and beautiful I have seen!"  Made me feel pretty darn good! Enjoy!
