Pots of Gold!

I tried to make little pots of gold for St. Patrick's Day. They are chocolate cake with mint chips inside. I hope you can tell what they are. :) At least they taste great.

To brighten your day!



I made these just for for fun using some leftover flowers I had from a past wedding cake. A friend of mine has been having a hard time lately and I thought these would brighten her day. :)

Ribbon Wrapped Cake!

This five tiered wedding cake is mostly styrofoam! Could you tell? No? Well that's the point. :)
Lets face it, at most weddings the only people who even taste the wedding cake are the bride and groom and after the reception some of it might be divided among family members but in the end most of it ends up in the trash. What a waste of money! By doing a dummy cake you still get the beautiful large cake of your dreams without the crazy price. I called around to get prices on this type of cake and all prices were between $500-$600!!! Sheesh. This cake of mine went for $235.00! Much better price tag, right? The bottom tier is white cake with raspberry filling, vanilla buttercream and marshmallow fondant.
