Thanksgiving!!!

I made some oh so adorable mini cupcakes for my sons school. They turned out so cute and I am so glad that I stayed up till almost midnight finishing them for him because now I have a cake order for next week...AND there are at least 6-7 people who want my business card at his school *Bizanga!!* hehe thats all for now..enjoy!

Purple cake!

Well.. I was trying to find an amazing vanilla cake recipe and had to make a cake to try it out and I found one that is pretty wonderful. It is one of those cakes where you can only eat one slice at a time cause its that rich and yummy! lol But I tried out a new decoration border and just used my imagination and came up with this cake...I think its really pretty and hoping a client will want one like this eventually!

Fall Wedding Cake

My first wedding cake and I was very proud of it and cant wait to make more!!

Bed Cake ;o)

This cake was soo much fun. This cake was for a pure romance party. I just made a normal 13x9 cake and then cut it a little to make the shape of the bed. Used a tip 104 to do the dust ruffle and then did all the clothes free hand. The hardest part was getting the symbol/lettering right on the cake. All the women loved it, oh and it was a new recipe. Its the chocolate cake recipe on the back of the Hershey's Unsweetened Cocoa box. Its called something like "perfect chocolate cake" its a very easy cake to make and is very moist :o)

Fall and Halloween!

So I had a chance to make a fall cake and cupcakes this month. I tried out a new recipe for an Romanian Apple Spice cake. And oh my gosh it made my house smell AMAZING! I like the fall cake but it kinda reminds me of something that I would see on Cinderella :o)

first time for everything...

Alright..so it happened. I got ditched on a cake. I worked SOOOO hard on a replica louis vuitton present cake and cupcakes. They looked AMAZING ..well to me since I dont use fondant I think they were pretty damn good lol. So she stood me up, no phone call no email no NOTHING. I am so pissed and was totally rethinking this at home cake business crap because now she has made me not trust anyone. Yeah..yeah..that was probably my monthly visitor talking and when I came to my senses I realized from now on I have to have a deposit to even start on the cake. That was all my wasted time and ingredients down the drain. I guess at least my hubby and Jeromy had some snacks. So here it is and I have two more cakes due at the end of the month so there will be more pics to come!!

80's Theme Birthday Party

This was a 80's Themed Birthday Party! She wanted cassette tapes, roller skates and ms. pacman. It was a lot of work but the little detail like the laces on the skates and the bow and eyelashes on ms pacman really made them look nice. She was very pleased and that made me so happy. Enjoy!!

Spidey cake!

This is a spiderman cake I did for my son Arthur, it was his 4th birthday. It was a two tier cake, chocolate first tier and yellow on the top tier with butter cream filling on both :o) This cake was so much fun and the look on his face was just priceless when he saw it! On a more professional note I am finding it way easier to decorate cakes, this cake wasnt very hard at all to me but came out amazing..so im thinking that means I am getting better :o)

Monkey baby shower cakes!

Monkey baby shower cakes/cupcakes, wasnt to excited about this idea at first. But this is what the mommy to be wanted and it really turned out pretty cute!

Phoebes 2nd Birthday!!

This cake was for my daughters 2nd birthday, I am SOOO pleased with how it came out. It was awesome and she LOVED it!!!!!

Wedding Cake!

My first wedding cake I have ever done, it came out okay..I wish I could go back and fix a few things but the bride loved it and it was a cute idea!!

Skateboard Cake!!

This was for a 14 year old guy who likes skateboarding and the GIRL skateboards. This was a really fun cake to make. I will be making the axels for the wheels a little longer next time but other then that I think it turned out pretty great! Everyone loved it. I also used fruit by the foot rolled up for the wheels which in person looked SOO freaking cool.

Cake for Kellies Girls!

This was a technique I have been wanting to try for a while now! The stripes down the sides were really pretty I think, the only thing to work on is that steady hand and making sure they are straight. Other then that it looks pretty good to me!

Bachelorette Cake

This was for Kellie's friend Courtney who is getting married in August, I am doing her wedding cake also. This was her bachelorette cake, turned out pretty well and Kellie liked it so yay...as you can tell..still working on the handwriting..blah! I dont know if its my camera but the colors dont look as vivid as they were in person, I really need to learn how to make HOT pink..if anyone knows let me know!

Victorian Cake

So I had some of the colors left over from Madysen's Lady Bug cake so I decided to make another cake for hubby and my dad and the kids. I did a swag along the sides with rose buds at every point. Then a dot border and a pretty cluster of flowers in the middle. Turned out okay,the cluster of flowers didnt come out how I wanted but theres always next time!

Lady Bug Cake/Cupcakes!

This cake was so much fun also! Madysen's mom Kellie gave me a plate from the birthday theme to replicate onto the cake and cupcakes and at first I didnt like the color that I came up with. But surprisingly the color matched the plastic plates she had and the theme of the table so well. Madysen loved her little cake so much she wouldnt let anyone cut into it!!

Fire Truck Cake!!

This was the fire truck cake for a little boy named Logan who loves anything with wheels. He absolutely was astonished by this cake and even tried playing with it..he thought it was a real truck!!

Purse Cake!

This cake was so much fun to do! It is a purse *obviously* Next time I try this cake out, I am going to try to find this edible silver paint you can put on the detail to make it look like clasps etc.. to bring out the detail I put into the purse. Also hubby had a good idea and said next time I should make the bottom of the purse fatter to make it look more realistic. *like theres stuff in it*

MIL Birthday

Still working on the handwriting, but I fixed the size of the vines coming from the flowers and believe it looks better this way. MIL loved it, it was exactly what she wanted.. so I was pleased!

Father's Day!

Father's Day Cake I made for my dad. He wanted a chocolate cake with blue because thats his favorite color! My husband pointed out that I made the vines too thick on the cake and I agree, so with the next cake you can see how I adjusted the size of the vines.

Moms Birthday!

Chocolate cake that I made for my moms birthday, she wanted chocolate frosting with peach colored roses. I was really pleased with how this cake turned out, and she loved it!!

Bug Cupcakes!

These cupcakes I used a grass tip to make the grass, and then piped all the bugs by hand. Caterpillar, Butterflies and Lady Bug.

Mothers Day!

This was my Wilton Course II Final cake, we took the first two weeks making all the flowers which were made out of royal icing and then put the whole cake together at the final class with the basketweave side and rope border.

Pablo the penguin cake!

This is the Pablo the penguin cake and cupcakes made for a friends little boy.

Easter Cake/Cupcakes

This is the Easter cake that I made for Tiffany's family Easter get together.. This was one of my FAVORITE cakes, it came out so beautiful!

And these are the mini cupcakes I made for Arthur's preschool class and their Easter party.

Course I Final Cake!

This was my final cake for Wilton Course I, I did a rose bouquet with a small shell border with the purple sweet peas in the bottom border.

Next class..

This is where we learned drop flowers and shell border, as you can see my handwriting is very crooked but the teacher had said that the writing comes with time and boy was she right!!

First Cake Class!

This was my cake from my first Wilton cake class where we learned borders and the star tip, was actually asked by many people in the class why I was taking the beginners course :o) Its a pretty cute cake for like easter or something!

Halloween Cupcakes!

These are Halloween cupcakes I made for my sons Halloween party at his preschool, the kids liked them alot!

Dinosaur Cake!

This was for my Evan, on his third birthday. He loves dinosaurs and he was so ecstatic when he saw this cake. This cake was also before any cake classes.

Arthurs 3rd Birthday

This was the second cake I made without classes. It was for my sons 3rd birthday, and I tried very hard to make this look as nice as possible and I think it turned out pretty well :o)

Okay, so this was the first cake I have ever done. It made me really feel like with some classes this could be something I can get better at!! I got the idea off betty crocker. Its a half sheet cake with the flip flops on the top, and I used these airhead candy stripes as the thongs on the sandals.
