Cake and matching cupcakes for 2 little sisters celebrating their birthdays together, 2 and 3 yrs. old. Fondant and gumpaste decorations and everything is edible. Chocolate cake with chocolate chip buttercream filling and the cupcakes are vanilla with vanilla buttercream.

Peonies and succulents were part of this baby shower decor. Gumpaste flowers with relaxed fondant ruffles. The succulents are real as I didn’t have time to learn to make them which is another item on my agenda. I used floral water picks for the succulents then inserted them into the cake so they woudn’t be touching the cake. Top tier is gluten free chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and bottom tier is tangy lemon cake with lemon cream layered with fresh raspberries for the filling.

Big yellow fantasy peony with a molded grey button with a little edible glitter for bling. The simplicity of the cake really made the flower stand out and this is what the client wanted. Went well with all of the other delicious treats on the dessert table. It was styled by the client for her sister. Dark chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ganache filling. Flower is gumpaste/fondant.

All buttercream iced with gumpaste hibiscus flowers. Chocolate espresso cake with chocolate hazelnut buttercream filling. Love doing these kinds of cakes because they’re so easy to ice and the textured look is a nice addition to an otherwise plain cake.

This was a very special cake for me to make as baby Jacob was born at 26 wks. He is 7 wks. old now and he and his mom are doing fantastic! Mom loves owls and I made it to match the invite. Dark chocolate cake with banana cream filling. Fondant/gumpaste decorations. Can’t wait til this little miracle comes home so I can meet him. TFL!

This would be pretty for a wedding too. All white buttercream frosting with plum accents. Bottom tier is marble cake with chocolate ganache filling, middle tier is banana cake with banana crream filling and the top tier is strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream filling. Kind of neopolitan or banana split flavors.

I made this cake for a group of people celebrating their birthdays in the winter. All textured buttercream and I used a piece of burlap to put texture on the bow. Dark chocolate cake with bavarian cream and fresh raspberry filling. Except for the bow, this was the easiest cake I’ve done in a long time.

I made these cupcakes for a special lady who delivered her baby boy at 26 wks. They are both doing wonderful! They are banana chocolate chip cake with rich dark chocolate buttercream frosting which is her favorite. I took them to her this past weekend and needless to say, her and her husband loved them. Toppers are all fondant. TFL!

I made this pleated cake for my niece’s birthday. She loves burgundy roses and they are also the color of her birthstone (garnet). I chose light gray for the cake as I’ve been wanting to make a gray cake for a while. Since it’s still winter here it seemed like a good time to try it. She’s not a frilly kind of person so this is what I came up with. Fondant over buttercream and gumpaste roses and leaves. All carrot cake with cream cheese filling.

Birthday cake for my dauighter. Tart lemon cake with tart lemon filling. My daughter is pregnant and craving lemon?! Thank goodness it was tart enough because she did love it. Fondant ruffles and flowers.

Made this cake for our family. Dark chocolate cake with alternating layers of dark chocolate ganache and buttercream with crushed peppermint candy for the fillings. Trees and presents are white chocolate. Edible gold glitter and silver dragees for sparkle.

Fondant/gumpste decorations. Ornaments were hand cut. Edible gold glitter for sparkle.

Had a lot of fun doing this cake. Lots of ruffles and bling. Gentlemen wanted a cake for a surprise 40th birthday for his wife. Only conditions were pink, black and some bling. Gumpaste and fondant for the decorations and all edible. Cake flavors are vanilla cake with chocolate ganache filling and vanilla cake with raspberry mousse filling all iced in buttercream. Wish I had a better picture of it. Was in a rush to get it delivered.
TFL!

I made this cake for 5 people who all celebrate their birthdays in the fall. Carrot cake with cinnamon cream cheese filling and iced in buttercream. Gumpaste/fondant foliage.

I donated this cake to be auctioned off at Art & Creativity For Healing fund raiser event. This is a wonderful organization for all children, adults and our men and women in the military. I chose to use an icing sheet with this colorful print that shows exactly what they do with color and paint. Gumpaste/fondant peony and artist pallet. White sour cream cake with chocolate cream and caramel drizzle filling and iced in buttercream.

Vanilla cake with chocolate chips cake and buttercream icing. Fondant/gumpaste/royal icing decorations.

What better way to let people know that a baby girl or boy is on the way. I was inspired by the invite. but the mom-to-be didn’t want it too fussy. This is what I came up with. Decorations are fondant/gumpaste and edible images. Top tier was dark chocolate cake with whipped cream filling (for dad) and the bottom tier was vanilla cake with whipped cream filling also. I dyed it pink because it’s a baby girl and all covered in buttercream. It was so fun to be a ‘partner in crime’ with the parents.

Cutting cake for a wedding desert table. Dark chocolate cake with buttercream filling and frosting. Black molded fondant rosettes and fantasy flower.

Since Halloween is just around the corner I wanted to try something different. It turned out looking a little Goth and my dark side definitely showed up on this cake. Lol! Out of the box for me, but I had fun doing it including making the cake stand. TFL

This cake was a little out of my comfort zone as I’ve never done a chevron pattern, used an entire edible image around a cake or done an extended height all in the same cake! I chose the paper at a scrapbooking store and then went from there. All dark chocolate cake filled and iced in buttercream with fondant decorations.TFL!
