Sugar Cookies and Gingerbread Men

My husband and my Father-in-law are both ENT physicians, and this past weekend they had their Christmas party, so I made each family a little box of cookies as well as homemade hot cocoa (the post for that is a few down) as little gifts. I have been told that I made the BEST sugar cookies (wink, wink). I was planning on making all the desserts for the party (pecan crusted chocolate pudding pie, lemon bars, pastry puff, and spritz which I did already have made), but my dog ate a cake for a customer that was due the next morning so I was busy
re-doing that, and so I had no time to bake and I was forced to buy the desserts. :(

Punky's i Carly laptop computer cake

This cake was made for a girl I went to High School with's daughter Alyssa aka Punky who turned 8. This cake went off without a hitch until a sudden disaster struck... my dog Sasha ate it (scroll down to see the pic of the cake she ate) at 7pm Friday night. Words can't even begin to describe what was going through my mind. Anyway, I jumped right on making another one, and actually finished alot faster than it took for the first one. I guess I was a seasoned pro at making computer cakes by that time. :) The cake was white with chocolate buttercream/chocolate chip filling with vanilla buttercream frosting and then covered entirely in fondant. The screen was made from styrofoam and then covered in fondant as well. Happy 8th Birthday Punky!



This was the first cake that I made... the one that my dog ate!!!

Jacob's hockey cake

This cake was made for a repeat customer's son Jacob who was turning 8. He loves Hockey so that is what he got. His favorite color is green so that was incorporated into the cake as well. The cake was chocolate with chocolate buttercream filling and vanilla buttercream frosting. The hockey sticks, puck, stars and stripes were made from homemade marshmallow fondant. Happy 8th Birthday Jacob!
