Ivory Snowflake Wedding Cake
This 4-tier wedding cake was for my cousin's wedding this week. She requested an ivory cake with the hearts, snow, and snowflakes incorporated. The top tier is a very small 4-inch round cake for the couple to save for their first anniversary. The tier below that is my first attempt at an eggless cake, as one of my cousins has an allergy to eggs (as well as almonds - so no almond extract in the frosting either). It is a vanilla cake filled with vanilla buttercream. Below that tier is a chocolate cake tier with chocolate cream filling, then the bottom tier is a vanilla cake with vanilla cream filling. The whole cake is frosted and decorated with vanilla buttercream. The red hearts are made from Wilton Candy Melts. The wedding was so lovely and it is always great to see family. Congratulations to my cousin Layna and her new husband, Jeff!!!

Romantic Blue Cake with White Chocolate Roses
Another cake order for my best customer! This one was for her mother's birthday. She said to do whatever I wanted and to make it really pretty. Fun for me! This is vanilla cake with raspberry filling and vanilla buttercream. The roses are my first attempt at working with rolled chocolate (white chocolate in this case). It worked out pretty well - I've made enough flowers out of play-doh in my life to have a little bit of an idea of what to do. Although the flowers are chocolate, I don't know if it's something that anyone would really want to take a big bite of... What do you think?

I am very pleased with how this cake turned out! The dinosaur themed party (picture below) is for a 6 year old's birthday this weekend. The small cake is my Neapolitan combination (strawberry cake, vanilla cream filling, and chocolate buttercream frosting), along with one dozen strawberry cupcakes frosted with chocolate buttercream and topped with chocolate rocks, as well as two dozen chocolate cupcakes frosted with vanilla-almond buttercream.

3-tier Sports Birthday Cake
Three family members with November birthdays means a 3-tier cake for one big party! The customer asked for a sports themed two tier cake to celebrate her son's 3rd, one of her daughter's 12th, and her husband's 35th birthdays. I thought a three tier cake would be even more fun, so I surprised her. All three tiers are mocha cake with chocolate cream filling and vanilla-almond buttercream frosting. Happy Birthday Grayson, Darian, and Joel!!!
