Elmo Birthday Cake for Katelyn

This was a fun one!  Katelyn's 2nd birthday was Elmo themed, who she loves very much.  Her party was awww.maaaaazz.ing.  You can check it out here.
The bottom tier of the cake was a double-layer 8" round and the top tier was a double-layer 6" round, both were classic white with buttercream icing and a gumpaste Elmo sat on top. 

Also, there were Elmo decorated sugar cookies, that turned out way cuter than I ever expected.

 

Here's a better pic with a professional photographer (makes me really want to get a fancy camera and learn how to take nice pictures of my cakes).



Grooms Cake for Da' Poet

Girly Birthday Cupcakes

I made these chocolate cupcakes for a good friend of mine who was celebrating a special little girl's 1st birthday.  Her nickname is "Little Miss" so I wrote "Lil Miss" on one of the cupcakes.

Texas Longhorns Birthday Cake

A few weeks back I did a Texas Tech football cake, but secretly I've been dying to do a Texas Longhorn cake (my husband and I are both Texas Exes.  Along with my brother, one of my uncles and a couple of distant cousins).  So when Pam asked me to do this cake for her husband, I squealed with joy!

It was a simple double-layered 10" round chocolate cake with buttercream icing.   Simple but so so so awesome- one of my favorites to date!!   Hook 'em \m/




Happy 1st Birthday Audric

I have to start off this entry by saying how happy I was to do Audi's first birthday cake.  He is a very special little blessing to one of the sweetest moms I've ever met. 

Audi's birthday cakes were decorated to match his invitation.  The bottom tier was a double-layer 10" round yellow cake and the top tier was a double-layer 8" round chocolate cake, both with buttercream icing.  His personal smash cake was a carrot cake with buttercream icing.

I also decorated some sugar cookies as party favors for Audi's guests.  Thanks again Andria; you are one amazing momma!
