Madagascar Cake for Lincoln


Lincoln turned 3 this week and loved his Madagascar themed cake!  The bottom tier is vanilla confetti cake with raspberry filling, the top tier is orange creamsicle.  All of this cake is frosted and decorated with buttercream.  I also made the topper, and I borrowed the toys from my little ones. :o)

Rustic 4-Tier Wedding Cake




The first two pictures were onsite at the wedding, this last one was what it looked like as I delivered it to the florist.  The flowers she added were so beautiful.  There was a slight mishap with delivery so the front of the cake was actually turned into the back of the cake and the heart and initials were "carved" into the new front side and there were a few more flowers than originally planned.  But everything worked out and it looked beautiful at the wedding. The 12 inch round bottom tier was vanilla cake with raspberry filling.  The 10 inch tier above that was chocolate cake with vanilla cream filling, above that is an 8 inch tier that was carrot cake with cream cheese filling.  The top tier is a pumpkin spice cake with apple cinnamon cream cheese filling.  All was frosted with off-white buttercream.  Lots of flavors for the guests to choose from!  Nicole & Patrick - thank you for your order and congratulations on your beautiful day!  Becky - thank you for saving the cake. :o)

Flower Cupcakes


I made these cupcakes for my sister-in-law's baby shower this weekend.  We had a lot of flowers for the decor and so I went with that idea for the dessert.  I felt that cupcakes were more fitting for this party than a large cake.  They are pink lemonade cupcakes with buttercream frosting.  I did three designs: hydrangea, rose, and marigold.

50th Birthday Brownie Cake


This is a two-layer brownie cake filled and frosted with chocolate buttercream.  The customer requested some green leaves and the birthday message on the cake.  Thanks for the order, Pam!

Wedding Cake with a Tree


The bride requested a three tier white wedding cake with a tree up the center.  She had shared a picture of what she wanted and I went off of that.  The bottom tier is chocolate cake with mint buttercream filling, the middle and top tiers are vanilla cake with raspberry filling.  The frosting is all buttercream, the brown details are chocolate and the green details are mint.
 
She also ordered a lot of cupcakes for her special day.  She had one batch of orange cupcakes with vanilla buttercream, one batch of lemon cupcakes with raspberry buttercream, and one batch of pineapple cupcakes with coconut buttercream.



 
Congratulations, Christa!  I hope you enjoyed all your treats.  Thank you for the order!

Pink and Green 2-Tier Baby Shower Cake




This is a two-tier baby shower cake with a banner and topper to match.  The banner design and topper were purchased by the customer in a digital format.  I offered to print and cut out the pieces with my cricut machine - saving her a lot of cutting time with scissors.  The cake is pink lemonade with vanilla cream filling and buttercream frosting.

Another birthday cake for little Presley!  This year was a Minnie Mouse theme.  This was a yellow cake with chocolate cream filling and buttercream frosting, and a topper to match.  Happy 2nd Birthday, sweet girl!

Black and White Wedding Cake "Biker Elegance"



This was a very fun, non-traditional wedding cake order.  The bride had an image of a cake she liked and asked if I could produce something similar.  She said the wedding would have kind of a "biker-elegance" feel. :o)  She requested the skull and crossbones, studded ribbon, and rhinestones incorporated into the cake design and fresh bright pink roses to finish it off.  She was very pleased with the cake!  The bottom and top tiers were white cake with vanilla cream filling, and the middle tier was white cake with coconut cream filling.  All was frosted with my buttercream frosting.
