Rain drops on roses and snowflakes on.......cupcakes?

I thought I remembered the words to that song "My favorite things" but apparently I don't! ;)  Oh well, the snowflakes part goes with my most recent creations.  300 absolutely beautiful....and scrumptuous tasting I might add.......cupcakes for my friends wedding reception.  I made three different kinds, 100 of each.  Chocolate with a peppermint cream filling and buttercream frosting done in lemon grass green with two small snowflakes and tiny edible pearls on it.  A white cake with a custard cream filling, eggplant colored buttercream frosting with one big fondant snowflake and tiny edible pearls, and finally a red velvet cake, with cream cheese filling, a cream cheese/buttercream frosting decorated with sparkly crystals and tiny pearls.!  I think they all turned out amazing!  Enjoy!

Its been a while....where ya been?

Its been a while since I posted last and I had a few cakes since then and a few more from before that that I apparently forgot to post about :)  I had an AMAZING wedding cake, a haunted house cake, a baby shower cake, my brothers 40th birthday which was an ice cream super hero cake.  Lots and lots of fun times!!  I have also commissioned wedding cupcakes for January!  Can't wait to post the pics of those!

Isn't this so cool!

This is the cake set up at the party!

This is the one pic of the wedding cake that would stay the right way I will try to post more later.

These are some cute lemon cupcakes that I make for my moms bday this past sept.

Forgot to mention this one.  This was a Dora the Explorer cake I made for a friends little girl!

I made those logos on the cake out of fondant

Cupcakes for my brothers bday.  yes I made those logos out of chocolate!

I didn't get a picture of the finished cake on this one for some reason, but I made this one for my nephews bdays.  my one nephew is in the Navy seal Cadets program so I hand painted their logo onto fondant.  My other nephews are really into cars and was in the process of making the cars logo for them!

Super cute baby shower cake I made for a friend.  Turned out so cute I think!

Here it is, set up at the party

Stars, Stripes, crowns.......and Elmo?

 Yep you read it right!  The past couple of weeks were CRAZY with cakes!!  I........volunteered to make the dessert for my husbands family b-day celebration for the month of July.  Doesn't seem so crazy right?  well there are EIGHT b-days in July for them!!  Yep eight!  so I got the awesome notion to ask each one what their fav kind of cake was and I would make it for them!  It turned out so cute but was a lot of work!  But thats what I do and I LOVE it!

Don't really know why this one turned on its side after I took it! :p

The next cake I made was actually quite the pain in the butt!  It was so cute but I went through a lot of product to get it made!  If something could go wrong with this cake it did!  When all was said and done I ( and I know I say this with every cake)  think this was my favorite one to do.  it just turned out so cute!

This next cake was done for my good friend from high school Chris's son who turned 3 on Sunday!  Chris did me a HUGE favor and fixed my computer and saved me a TON of money so I did him a favor and created a masterpiece for his son!!  He loves Elmo and sports!  you can kinda see it but there is a little white "Y"  on the football in front because he loves BYU!  again my newest favorite cake!  where Madi's was the most difficult, this cake was.......well cake to put together!!

Oh my gosh! I can't believe I forgot! Roller Coasters!!

About a week after my b-day I made a cake for my aunt who LOVES roller coasters!!  Well that's an understatement  I think she would live at Lagoon if she could!!  So I was asked to make a roller coaster cake for her 45th b-day!!  This one took a while to figure out how I was going to do it, but once it was done it turned out to be stupendous!

Nope not a coffee cake, but a Coffin cake!

 Coffin cakes are all the rage and taking the place of the coffee cake!!...................Ok well not really but that was the theme of my last cake done for a friend of my cousins!  He turned 40 and apparently that's close to being dead!!  Yep he is now over the hill!!  Although.......if turning 40 is being close to dead then I am in trouble!!  No I am not 40 yet but I did just turn 32 so I really only have a few good years left!!  Yea right!! I will be going until they stop me!!  This was a really fun cake to do and I think pretty darn cool looking too!! 

See the cool wood grain I did on the fondant?!
