Lego Birthday

This cake has over 80 fondant Legos on it. It was heavy!

Penguin Cake

For a very special birthday girl:

50th Birthday

Gum paste ribbon with fondant circles on buttercream.

This Little Piggy Turned 9

This cake was for a 9 year-old's birthday. He's covered in fondant with gum paste ears. The mud is buttercream frosting. A big thank you to my husband for the design idea and the carving.

Pickles and Ice Cream

This was for a baby shower. The cake is hand-painted fondant. The cherries are fondant with gum paste stems.



I had no idea on how to do the ice cream. I happened to Tivo a Food Network Challenge that featured food stylists and one of their challenges was to make a banana split. It turns out that fake ice cream is just a modified stiff frosting. I love how it turned out!

Elegant Wedding Shower

This was a buttercream cake for a wedding shower. The circles are fondant painted with silver pearl dust.

Getting Married to a Green Bay Fan

This beautiful cake is white cake with buttercream filling and frosting, topped with ribbon and fresh flowers.



The bride and groom's initials:




The groom's cake: white with buttercream.



The largest oval I could find wasn't big enough to get the 100 servings they were asking for, so I asked if I could supplement it with a smaller cake- something I think of when I think Green Bay and Wisconsin:

It all started with a cutting board. This is a cardboard cake circle covered with fondant, then painted with food colouring.

Then I added the "cheese". White cake with buttercream filling covered with fondant. I used food colouring to give it more depth.

Guaranteed to make a Packers fan happy!

Happy Father's Day!

A fondant and buttercream shirt cake for a Brave's fan. It was done in my most popular flavour combination: white almond cake with raspberry filling.

Butterfly Baby Shower

My client brought in a napkin for me that matched the baby shower decorations. She told my husband that she had gone to a supermarket bakery, but they turned her down. I was so glad I could do this cake for her!

The cake is buttercream and the butterflies, flowers, and lettering are fondant.

Happy Birthday Relief Society

I did this cake for our Relief Society birthday. This cake is a 14" 2 layer with a strawberry jam filling. The cake is done in fondant with buttercream piping.






Perry's artistic shot.

C is for Cookie

This cake was for a friend's son's second birthday. While looking for Cookie Monster cakes, I saw a picture with a little boy wearing this shirt. I thought it would be a quick little present. The cake is fondant, and the little cookie cupcake is buttercream.

House of Blues

I used fondant to make the logo for this cake.

Blue Screen of Death

I made this for a friend's husband's 47th birthday. He really liked the details- Perry made sure I had the USB ports and everything. This is actually the size of my real laptop.

All Wrapped Up

Commercial fondant doesn't taste good, but it sure does make cute ribbons!

Hawaii

This volcano cake was fun, even if it was a beast to put together. I did this for a Cub Scout Blue and Gold, as well as Caleb's end of year party. This one has the volcano covered in fondant, which was easier than covering it with buttercream. The inside holds a juice glass that I put dry ice in and added water for the smoke.

This little guy was fun, although keeping the pretzel stick upright wasn't. Liesie "helped" me with this cake by tasting the frosting on the side. I had used all of my blue, and anyone who does cakes will tell you that matching frosting is a beast. I came up with a wave effect made up of a royal blue, white, and sky blue mixed gently together. It turned out better than the straight blue I had before. I used the same technique for the lava on the volcano. Thanks Liesie!
