Pink Daisy Wedding Cake

I made this cake for a couple in July.  They wanted a very simple design so that they could feature the pink daisies.  The cake topper set it off!

Hot Pink & Zebra!

One of my favorite cakes to date! The is a completely fondant birthday cake for a precious little girl who turned 2.  Love it!

Dinosaur Mountain Cake.

Bob the Builder.

Martini for the Girls.

Made for a Girls' Night Out Bachelorette Party.  A little bit of fondant decorations on a buttercream cake.

Groom's cake.

This was made as a groom's cake for an avid duck hunter.  I was honored when the bride actually featured it at the wedding reception next to her cake rather than at the rehearsal dinner the night before.  The duck was actually bought instead of made from fondant.  I wanted it to be realistic, and that would be very difficult to achieve with fondant (at least for me!)

Rubber Ducky!

Luau Cupcakes

Fondant pineapples on a simple blue-iced cupcake.

Putting green.

I made this cake for my cousin who just made the middle school golf team.  It's supposed to show him eye-balling his putt. :)

Choo Choo!

Buttercream cake with fondant train! (The top picture shows the colors better, but didn't show the writing on the side.)

Butterflies!

This is a two-tiered buttercream cake made with fondant butterflies, flowers etc.  Again, for a one year old so there is a matching "smash cake."

Wedding Cake!

Detail while in progress.

Ta Da!

My very first wedding cake :)  I am so happy to add this to my portfolio - and also to announce that I am now accepting wedding cake orders!  This is a 3-tier square red velvet cake with buttercream icing and a cream cheese filling.  The bow was made by special request from the bride to make the cake look more like Christmas presents since her wedding was a Christmas theme.  It turned out lovely!

Christmas Lights & Mini-Trees.

Christmas lights cupcakes.  Made of cupcakes, icing, graham crackers, pretzels, gumdrops, twizzlers, sprinkles...the list goes on!  Perfect for any Christmas party.

The lighting is bad on this - but these are mini-cupcakes with Christmas trees piped on top.  Powdered sugar for a snowy effect!

AutoBell Cake.

Someone very close to me works for AutoBell Car Wash in the Charlotte area - and I was asked to make a cake for their in-house Christmas party.  (The petit fours below were for them, too.) I asked if I could do a logo cake for them along with their order, and well - I'd say it turned out pretty good!  This was all piped by hand after transferring the logo with piping gel.  Pretty cool!

Detail on the logo.

Christmas Petit Fours.

This was our (me and mom) first attempt at making petit fours.  Boy, was it a lot harder than you would expect!  Making sure to have all 5 surfaces smooth and presentable proved to be difficult with buttercream, but overall they were worth it!   Trying something new and learning the tricks of the trade is what it's all about!

My Little Pony.

LOVE this cake!  With the exception of the clouds (which are buttercream,) the entire cake is fondant.  I was so happy with how this turned out.  I met with this customer and we just worked out exactly how she wanted it by putting a couple of ideas together from different cakes.  The cupcakes were adorable - I purchased a new piping tip (the 1M) and that is how I did the swirly design on the cake.  This is my new favorite toy!  I'd make this cake again in a heartbeat!

Super Mario "Toadstool" Cupcakes.

These are Mario "Toadstool" cupcakes made for a 9 year old birthday party.  After trial and error we (Me, My Mom and Sister) had to cover the entire cupcake in fondant to give it the right effect and to let the base be white enough.  They turned out good, but were a lot harder than I would've expected!

Pink and Brown Polka Dots.

This is a buttercream two-tiered cake with fondant circles - the smaller of the two being a smash cake.  Cute for any little girl's birthday!

Pumpkin Patch Cupcakes.

I made these for a preschool class, and while I'm sure the parents liked them...they likely hated me too because these are nothing but sugar! Buttercream icing dipped in orange sugar crystals with an Airhead as the vine and a Rainbow Twizzler as the stem! Perfect for Halloween!

Monkey Cupcakes.

Darling cupcakes made for some adorable twins' birthday party!  The faces are made of fondant.  So cute!
