St. Louis Rams

This cake is BIG! It is a double layer half sheet (11x15"). It is Yellow cake with Vanilla Buttercream and covered in fondant. The blue details are cut out of fondant and the gold is handpainted fondant using Gold Luster Dust. The lines on the field and the grass border are all buttercream.

ALOHA!!

This cake was for an awesome Luau! It was a coconut cake with vanilla buttercream. It is an 8 inch and 4.5 inch tiered cake covered in fondant. The flowers on the sides are piped buttercream and then hand "painted" to give them texture and blended colors. The topper is a hand made Gum Paste/Fondant Fantasy Flower.

Home Sweat Home!

Hey, this was for a party that the theme was "Trailer Trash". I had way too much fun with the details on this. And there was so much more that I wanted to do. Every trailer has to have a "fRee kiTTeNs" hand-written sign and a mailbox "planted" in tires, right?:) Oh, and you can't forget the misspelled "home 'sweat' home" sign posted on the front of the house.

I decided to dress it up a bit with some broken lattice made out of chocolate to hide the truck trailer that the house is sitting on. The stairs are also chocolate that I melted, cooled and cut into the sizes I needed.

The concrete blocks, mailbox, tires, and kittens sign are all hand made with fondant and/or gum paste.

The cake itself is 6 6inch square cakes with a strip of rice crispy treats about in the middle of the trailer to make it a bit longer. It was Chocolate cake, vanilla buttercream. I then covered it in fondant and used fondant and buttercream for the details. Theme cakes are so much more time consuming but so much fun to do. I can't tell you how many times I laughed out loud while coming up with this one.

Joe's Pizza Cake!

I wanted to take something to Joe's work since he had to work ALL day on his actual birthday, so I decided on a pizza cake and pizza. This was very simple to make and it turned out really cool. Then I just went to our favorite pizza joint for a clean box to put it in. It's a yellow cake with red buttercream. I shaved white and yellow candy melts on top for a "Cheese" effect. The pepperoni is cherry fruit leather. The peppers and olives are also candy melts that I did ahead of time.

Joe's Brithday Car!

Joe drives a Galant VR4 and LOVES his car! So of course I gave him a VR4 cake for his birthday.

Sweet Baby Girl

I just finished this cake for a friend's baby shower. I wanted to do something that would resemble bedding for a little girl. I love the colors and how it all turned out. It is an 8x8 and a 4.5x4.5. Chocolate cake and chocolate buttercream covered in light pink fondant with pink, ivory, and brown details.

It's a Bird...No, it's a Plane!!!

Our friend Dave loves to fly his model airplane so I decided to do a cake with that theme. The base of the cake is a Chocolate Better than Sex cake, then the mountains are chocolate cake/chocolate buttercream. I love the addition of the banner in the sky. Happy 30th Dave!!!

Sage Cornelli Lace with Fresh Flowers

I made this cake for a reception last Saturday. The colors for the wedding were Sage and Eggplant. Thinking that it might be a bit difficult to make Eggplant look classy on a wedding cake, we opted for a Sage one with Cream Cornelli Lace and fresh flowers to bring in the Eggplant color. This is the first one of my cakes that has had fresh flowers on it and I don't think it will be the last. I love them! This is a spice cake with vanilla buttercream and covered in fondant with buttercream details. 10" and 6" tiers.

Pink Cornelli Lace and Roses

This is my latest cake. It was for a display for our stake talent show. These are the first buttercream roses I've been able to make look good. I felt pretty proud about that! Maybe I've finally got the hang of it. This is a Swiss Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Buttercream icing and Chocolate fondant. Square 8" and 4.5".

Monster Jam!

I've never met a 3 year old who loved anything more than Avery loves Monster Trucks! He has been to Monster Jam and watches it on TV a lot so I thought I'd recreate it for him. Four little boys surrounding one of my cakes would normally make me very nervous, but not this one. They were driving the trucks all over it and I didn't realize a cake could have sound effects. The best compliment I can get on a kids birthday cake is when they are distracted from the party by the CAKE!

Black & White

I have wanted to do a black and white one for a while. There are so many options and I hope this isn't the last I get to play with. I layered the cake black and white also. White cake, then a layer of chocolate tinted black with icing color. So it ended up being 4 layers of cake on the bottom (alternating the black and white) then 3 on the top (also alternating colors) with white/vanilla buttercream between all of them. It was really cool when it was cut too. Bottom is 8"square and top is 4.5" square.

Happy Birthday Quincy Lyn!

This is my new favorite bow to make. I love how realistic it is. This cake was for my friends little girl's 1st birthday. I made the tiny one for her individual cake to destroy on camera. I love the colors on this cake. It's an 8 inch and 5 inch on the big cake and the little one is about 2.5 to 3 inches across.

Jack's 1st Birthday

This was for Jack's 1st birthday. I love these colors for little boys. It is all fondant with buttercream details.

ZZZZZZZZ!

I love making cakes that look like things!! This one was so simple and fun to make thanks to some ideas from Joe on how to make it all work and what the "in" trends in bedding are right now. It's nice to have a husband who knows everything about everything! I am now finished with all my classes and ready to start baking. If anyone needs a cake, let me know before you go to Wal-mart and get a generic one. These are so much better. Looks and taste! I'd love ideas for future cakes too. Let me know what you'd like to see. I'd love to try it.

A Sweet Cake for a Sweet Lady

This was for my Mother-in-law's Birthday. She decided that she wanted a spice cake with pecans and orange buttercream icing. It was mouthwateringly good!!!

Huggably Delicious!!

This was so much fun to do. It has chocolate cake and chocolate buttercream on the bottom tier, then coconut cake and vanilla buttercream on the top tier. How adorable!I am excited to do this one in different colors too. The bottom is an 8x8 and the top is 4x4.

Joe's Dirt Cake

Yes, it is suppose to look like dirt, gravel more specifically. The caution cones are all handmade with fondant. If you look at his rallyx pictures you'll see the inspiration.

Gift Box

This is another I did for class. It was really cute.

Mario Cake!

Sam decided he wanted a "Mario Wedding Cake" for his fourth birthday. I had a lot of fun with it despite doing my very best to convince him that he really wanted a Pirate Treasure Chest Cake. First of all, IT WAS HUGE!!! How many 4 year olds get a cake like this? And, more importantly, what is he going to want next year?! I really wish I could say I made mario on top, but I can't. Well, I guess I could, but I would be lying. A friend sculpted it out of fondant. I did however make the fondant and paint him.
I had a lot of fun with the details, and also a little help from Joe.


Now that's a lot of cake!!

Chocolate Lovers Dream Cake!

I have wanted to do this cake for some time now and I loved it! It is truely a chocolate lovers dream come true. Chocolate cake, chocolate buttercream, and a two toned chocolate fondant covering and roses. I would love to do it in white tones also. So if anyone needs a cake..let me know...I'm pretty cheap...well, not me, but my cakes!
