Minnie Mouse Cake

Last weekend I made this cake for a friend's little girl who was turning 3. It was actually a very simple cake - lots of circles! The hardest part was getting a true red when making the frosting. This was a lemon cake.

Skateboard Skull Cake

I had a customer send me a picture of this skateboard they were getting their 16 year old boy for his birthday. They asked if I could make a cake like it. This is what I came up with:


I made two 9 x 13 cakes and rounded off the edges. I frosted them and covered the top with fondant. I painted the skeleton light bulb with food dye and lemon extract. The wheels are made of Rice Krispy treats covered in fondant. The wheels were the hardest part. I also made a little round cake to be sure there was enough servings.
