Christmas cakeballs and a Snowman

This is how I've been decorating my holiday cakeballs.  And a better picture of my Snowman cakeball.


Happy Birthday Tatum!

Tatum turned 8 last weekend and she had a girly make-over party.  I did a simple double layer, 10-inch round cake, one layer was classic white and one layer was chocolate, with buttercream icing and fondant decorations. 

Thanks for asking me to do the cake, D'Ann.  Maddie had a blast at the party!

Happy 1st Birthday Garrett!

Garrett's 1st birthday party was last weekend and it was jungle animal themed.  He had a single layer vanilla full sheet cake (it was a big ol' thing!) and a matching vanilla smash cake (5-inch round), both with buttercream and fondant decorations.  His mom wanted me to copy the safari cake from the baby shower I did a few months ago. 

Thank you Monica for asking me to do the cake.  It was great to see you!


Cakeballs for Thanksgiving!

Baby Carriage Shower Cake - Take 2

Wow, I haven't updated this blog in a while. 

This was another version of the baby carriage cake I did recently for a baby shower.  Except this time, I added a baby face.  Again it was a double layer, 12-inch round classic white cake with two 4-inch classic white cakes as wheels with buttercream icing and chocolate fondant zebra stripes.

Plus, matching cakeballs!
Thanks for ordering with me Jennifer!

Happy 1st Birthday Nia!

I had another 1st birthday this past weekend and this cake for a beautiful little girl named Nia.  Her mom emailed me a picture of her party dress and asked me to decorate the cake to match it.  I have to say that I'm very, very pleased with the outcome!

The top layer was a double-layer, 6" round chocolate cake and the bottom layer was a double-layer, 8" round pineapple cake with a pineapple filling.  Both were iced in buttercream icing.  The tutu and flowers were not edible. :)

Thank you so much for asking me to do this cake, Mithali.  I had alot of fun with it!


Happy Birthday Nicholas!

Nicholas' 4th birthday party was last weekend and he had a Scooby Doo party.  Instead of traditional party favors, his mom wanted to do decorated jumbo sugar cookies for his friends to take home.  She told me that even the parents asked if they could take one home! (I love comments like that!)  She wanted dog bone shaped cookies and I had the idea to put "Scooby Snack" on them.  They were individually bagged and I added the gift tag.

Thanks for ordering with me again, Katherine!
