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.

A Star is Born Shower Cake


I made this cake for my friend, Autumn's baby shower. She is having a girl, but fruffy pink is not her style. She came up with "A Star is Born" theme and had movie decorations and games. I made this cake to fit that theme, and I think it is my favorite shower cake I've done. The little movie camera came out so cute. The cake was chocolate with raspberry filling. I had a good time at the shower and I am so excited for Autumn's little girl to arrive.

Baby Girl Shower Cake


Last weekend I made this cake for a baby shower. The customer just said to make something girly. This is pretty girly. The cake is marble with a chocolate cream inside and frosted with whipped cream frosting. I decorated with fondant ribbon roses and baby.
