Keegan's Lightning McQueen Cake

This cake was made for a little boy turning 3. Having never seeing the movie, these cakes seem to get a bit easier each time being that this is my 6th one in the past year or so. The cake was white with strawberry buttercream and fresh strawberries, and crushed graham crackers for the sand on top. All "decorations" were made from fondant with the exception of the cars on top. If you notice, the road is shaped like a 3 and the speed limit sign is 3 mph because the birthday boy turned 3 years old... clever huh? :) Happy 3rd birthday Keegan!

This cake was made for a man turning 80 years young! The cake was based on the actual newspaper from the day he was born containing some of the same headlines, while a few others were made up for fun. The cake was white with strawberry buttercream/fresh strawberry filling and vanilla buttercream frosting. Happy 80th Birthday Norm!!

Twin Peas in a Pod Baby Shower

I absolutely LOVE the way that these turned out! These adorable peas in a pod cupcakes and small cake were made in honor of the soon to be mommy and daddy who are expecting twins... one boy and one girl! The boy cupcakes were chocolate with blue vanilla buttercream frosting topped with a pea pod and blue flower made from homemade marshmallow fondant. The girl cupcakes were vanilla with pink vanilla buttercream frosting also topped with the fondant pea pod and pink flower. The cake was one layer chocolate and one layer vanilla with vanilla buttercream filling and frosting. The large pea pod, flowers and polka dots were all made from fondant as well. Congratulations Michelle and Jeff on your soon to be double bundle of joy!

Ayden's 1st Birthday!

This cake was made for a little boy turning 1. His mom requested a cake with no theme, but wanted circus like colors. The bottom tier was white cake with strawberry buttercream and the top tier was chocolate with vanilla buttercream/chocolate chip filling. The 1, stripes, polka dots and the ball border were all made from homemade marshamllow fondant. The smash cupcake I was told had to be chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream frosting... a tradition in the family! Happy 1st Birthday Ayden Joseph!



Smash cupcake for the birthday boy

Happy Easter!

My dad and step mom put together an Easter egg hunt for all of the grand kids, so I made some very quick and easy Easter cupcakes to take along. I was quite busy with other orders this weekend, so I didn't have the time to be creative and make my own toppers, instead I bought some peeps and some Easter decorated toothpicks to top the cupcakes with. Happy Easter!!
