Safari!

I was so excited when I got this order!

I have been wanting to do a cake with animal prints on it for over a year and thanks to an adorable little boys 2nd birthday I got my wish.

Unfortunately I can't take credit for the sweet animal figures. The mother of the birthday boy bought those from Etsy.

The top tier was chocolate cake with chocolate filling and the bottom tier was 'zebra' made from chocolate and white cake. I promise to post a picture of the inside as soon as I get it.

I am in love with this cake!

Heather's Wedding!

Well, this made me feel old. One of the kids I use to babysit is now a married woman. Yeah, I know, who would have thought that I was that old right? (Sigh) At least I was able to be a part of it by making her wedding cake!

Once again the bride wanted a fancy cake without the fancy cost. We did two dummy tiers and one real for the bride and groom to enjoy.

The colors were navy blue, royal purple and silver.

At first I wasn't sure about those colors but they really came together beautifully.

 

I'm so proud of how this cake turned out!

Michaela & Alec's Wedding!

Look at this beautiful cake I made for my baby sisters wedding! 

I tried to make it look like her dress which was layered in ruffles and lace. It is also mostly dummy cakes! That's right, only one tier of real cake there. It's the perfect way to get a big cake without the big price.

Turned out pretty nice, huh?

I also made the cookies for the cookie bar. It was so fun and different to have a variety of delicious cookies and your choice of chocolate or plain milk.

Yummy!

Ray/Anderson Wedding

This is a four tiered white cake with raspberry cream filling covered in fondant with butter cream accents.

I was nervous about this cake ever since the consultation because I was worried that the design and colors would make it look too juvenile or girly for the style of wedding that the bride described. I did what the bride asked and was surprised to see that it didn't stand out from the rest of the decor as bad as I had thought it would.

Although it's not what I would have chosen to do it does look nice. Congrats to the bride and groom! May your future be as bright as the frosting on your cake! :)

Nifty to be Fifity!

 This month my Mom turned the BIG 50! My sisters and our good friend Ginnie May put together an adorable surprise party complete with food, friends, fun and a surprise visit by my moms sisters. :) We went with a purple theme since it is my mom's favorite color and of course I made the dessert. 

 I made 50 cupcakes and decorated them to match the party decor. I am also happy to announce that I can finally use my amazing cameo machine so the cute cupcake wrappers were a must. 

There were chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter filling and chocolate icing and white cupcakes with strawberry cream cheese filling with buttercream.

The party was a lot of fun and I'm glad that my mom got to spend time visiting with family and friends.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY!!!

Football!

This cake is for a 9 year old boy who is a big fan of the Utes and the Patriots. Thank goodness they have similar colors which made it easy to combine the two teams. I was nervous about this order since I've never done one like this before (exploding) but it turned out nice.

EASTER COOKIES!

We had our first annual King's Easter party today! We had so much fun with the family and I loved putting everything together.

Aren't these little guys cute? I can't take full credit since I got the idea from Pinterest, but they were a big hit.
