Great to Be 8 CTR Cake

I made this white cake with lemon filling for a church activity. I frosted the cake white and then piped green cornelli lace on it. I topped it cake with a fondant CTR Shield. We had drinks made of sherbet and Sprite, which went perfect with the cake. It was a nice ending to a nice night.

Swim Party Fondant Figurine

I made this fondant figurine for a friend who was making a cake for her son's birthday.

This is how her cake turned out. How cute are the wafer cookies as the sides of the pool. I loved it!

Preschool

My other job is being a preschool teacher. This year I taught 9 sweet kids. We celebrated their graduation to Kindergarten last week. I made this lemon cake, frosted it, and decorated it with their names and a figurine (my son said it was him). They sang a few song and were so cute. I will miss them next year!

Poker Table Cake

I made this Poker Table cake for my client's son's 21st birthday. I baked the cakes and filled and frosted them, when I noticed the bottom layer was buckling. I sometimes forget how fragile cake is to work with. All the neighbors got a big chunk of cake and I started over. This was a chocolate cake with Oreo filling.

The client offered to bring over cards and chips, but as a cake decorator, I like the challenge of trying to make everything edible. I cut out these cards and let them dry overnight, then I used food dye to hand paint them.

Talent Show Star Cake

I made "A Star is Born" baby shower cake recently and my daughter, Camryn, thought it would be perfect for her birthday party. I just made a Camryn figure singing to put on top of the strawberry cake. Her party involved make overs, a photo shoot, and each girl sharing a talent. It was fun and Camryn loved her cake.

Chocolate Covered Oreos

If you think Oreos are chocolatey enough on their own, you would be mistaken. My daughter and I found these chocolate molds that coat Oreo cookies. She brought these to her school class and her musical theater class on her birthday. Her theater class is putting on a production of Beauty and the Beast next month and we thought the rose molds were perfect. We wrapped them in little treat bags with a tag that said Happy Birthday Camryn! on them. The kids loved them.

Ladybug Cake

A client asked me to make a cake for her daughter's first birthday. She sent me a picture of the plates they were using and I tried to match the theme and color scheme. The cake is a white with fresh, sliced strawberries in the middle. I am always trying to find ways to make more elements on my cakes edible, so the ladybugs are made of rice krispy treats, covered with marshmallow fondant.
