Princess Haley Cake


This cake was for a little girl who was turning 1. The crown and bows are marshmallow fondant with some gumpaste powder mixed in to help with the drying. I am always nervous about this Las Vegas heat and what it will do to the cakes. The party was fun with lots of food and the birthday girl was so cute. She was terrified of the balloons and mystified about what to do with the candles.

Baby Boy Shower Cake


I made this cake for a customer who was throwing a shower for a family member. The baby boy is coming out like a gift and the booties are little Converse. The decorations are marshmallow fondant with some gumpaste powder mixed in to help it dry. The heat in the summer make fondant a little tricky. The cake is white with fresh strawberries and a strawberry gel filling and is covered in whipped cream frosting.
