Cheetah in Pink

A lovely girl names Brieauna (awesome way to spell it!!) contacted me from my craigslist post and wanted something extra special for her birthday. She loved pink and cheetah of course. I always know girls love their cakes when the squeal when they see it.  I know it's a job well done.

Winter "One"derland

Sweet Stephanie (I made her Juicy Couture Baby Shower Cake) called me with a fun picture of a cake that she wanted me to re-create for her niece who was tuning one.  I LOVED the way it turned out.  Out of the box for me for sure but SUPER fun.  I had a blast creating the little penguins who each looked like they had their own little  personality. EVERYTHING was edible besides the glass bowl and snowflake on top. This cake was full of glitter and fun and I hope the birthday girl had a day to remember!!!

Happy 60th

My mom and a few friends were having a 60th birthday party Tea for their friend.  They asked me to do a finger food dessert so I came up with these adorable cake truffles.  I loved the way they turned out.  Just enough!

Arrgh!!

So excited when I heard from Rebecca again to do her children's birthday cake again this year.  Last year she ordered a huge Yo Gabba Gabba Cake.  This year they were throwing a pirate party for PJ and Emma.  I had a lot of fun being creative and figuring out how to put together a pirate treasure cake.  She also ordered pirate cake pops with both boy and girl colors.  SO FUN!!  I hope to be a part of their special day for years to come :)

Wedding Week!

I was SO blessed to be able to be a part of two very sweet weddings this past week.  It was a very beautiful, yet warm day for the middle of October.  I am happy to share these pictures with you :)

The first, sunflower cake was for a sweet young lady named Meghan.  Her wedding was a t a private residence in Del Ray.  This cake was covered in homemade buttercream and each tier was a different yummy combination.  This cake was made to feed around 150 people and probably weighed at least 40 pounds!!

This wedding cake was made for Candace Tanner.  I made a few cakes for her in the past for her who little boys.  Her and her soon to be husband were getting married at a LOVELY little private vineyard here in Clovis, CA.  The venue was breathtaking as I drove up.  They were having a small Hawaiian inspired ceremony.  I loved how this cake turned out!!

Cowboy UP!!

Tiffany contacted me for a smash cake for her son Jayce's (I LOVE that name) 1st birthday.  The hat was made and carved from a 4" cake.  Soooooo fun.  I look forward to making another again soon!!

Ok NOW it's time to make the cake!!

So this is the order I made last week that was supposed to be this week ;)  You're not seeing double I promise!  I loved the way this cake turned out.  And I LOVED trying the zebra print cake pops as well. 

This order was for one of my husband's co-workers so I hope her and her daughter loved them. 

Hawaii

Phyllis attended a party where my cake was being served and called me to order herself a birthday cake.  She wanted something small, but pretty and yummy.  She loves Hawaii and LOVES peanut butter.  So I made her a chocolate, peanut butter cake with Reese's peanut butter cup stuffed buttercream.  YUMMO!!!!

Argh Matey!!

My good friend Amber asked me to make cake pops for her guests for Colbie and Daltons birthday party.  The theme was pirates and mermaids so I had LOTS of fun!  Take a look at what I came up with :)

Oops!!

Today I was working, working, working on a fabulous cake for my husband's co-worker Sonia.  I was putting on the finishing touches when I looked in my phone to make sure I have the correct spelling of her daughter's name.  I scroll up and it says "I would need this cake on the 8th".......

Yeah, tomorrows the 1st!  So, plan "B".  I was making a rather small cake for a client named April.  She was ordering it for her daughter's 5th birthday.  I sent her a message asking if she'd be interested in it at no additional cost.  She was extremely excited ;) So her little girl will wake up to a fabulous Hello Kitty and Keroppi cake in the morning on her 5th birthday.  I LOVE surprises and I love when things turn out even better that I thought they would :) 

Happy Birthday Deer!

Sunch a fun cake to do for a guy!!  A friend Amber Ellis contacted me again to make this surprise cake for her hubby's birthday :)  So fun. 

Mario Brothers

Do you know how hard it is to keep two little boys away from a Mario cake??   :)  This was a super (no pun intended) fun cake to make.   It's an edible video game. 

I am so glad that Julia called me to be a part of her families special event again. :)  I hope Damien and his family enjoys!!!

Adorable!

I LOVED this cake...... and I wanted to keep it for myself.  :)  This was a fairly large cake at 12".  I decided to keep it nice and simple with a monogram on top and a cute little flower.  I added some gold luster dust to make it extra girly and shimmery.  Inside was my red velvet cake with cream cheese buttercream.  Really....you can't go wrong.  I hope that Cassandra and her little love bug adored their cake!

Couture Cake

My first couture cake.  I had so much fun with it!!!!  This cake was adorned with a gold pearl trim and Juicy couture charms and key chains. 

I also did 4 dozen cupcakes to match!  These toppers were designed by a little shop on etsy.com.  I printed them and punched them out for the sticks.  I LOVED them.  Adorable. 

Hello Kitty #2 for the Week :)

This was the larger of the two Hello Kitty Cakes.  Thre tier cake for Mariah's 1st birthday party.  I wanted to eat the bottom tier myself because it was a pound cake with fresh strawberries.....YUM!!!

Hello Kitty

Two hello Kitty cakes with week.  LOTS of pink around the kitchen :) 

This was a two tiered cake for a little girl's 6th birthday.  I loved being able to use my new hello kitty cutter as well as trying out my bow making skills.  I am having a lot of fun trying out gumpaste.  :)

What a busy week!!

Two three tiered cake, one two tiered, one single tier and 6 dozen cupcakes........  and a partridge in a pear tree.  :)  Pictures to follow.

Cheetah

I was so excited to try this cheetah print on a cake.  This is the first time that I've "painted" like this on a cake and I LOVED the way that it turned out.  Also, I tried this peony flower and I can't wait to start trying out more flowers.  I think I've become addicted :)

Steelers!!

Happy Birthday cake for Rudy who loves the Steelers!!  Hand painted Steelers Symbol...... I had fun with this one!!!

Elmo!!

Sweet Hopee contacted me again for me to make her little nephew Giovanni his first birthday cake :)  She also asked for 20 Elmo cake pops.  I LOVED making these fun creations.  I was thrilled with the way that everything turned out and they inspired me to try some other charachters!!

Artsy Cake Pops

A lovely lady named Nicki, who happens to me my mom's massage therapost asked for my number :) She was having a party to celebrate her new home and wanted some "art deco" style cake pops for her friends to munch on. I was pleased with the way these cake pops turned out. They were something ompletely different than what I have ever done and it forced me to think outside of the box. :) I look forward to making something special for her in the future. Thanks for the order Nicki!!

"Cars" Cake Pops!!!

I had a great time putting these together for little Logan! My friend Danielle called me and wanted to order something fun for him to take to preschool to celebrate is 4th birthday. I hope that him and all of his friends enjoy!!
