Princess Leah's Castle






Princess Leah has a castle made of 4 cakes and 15 cups of icing! The upper floor (8") is chocolate, and the main floor (12") is strawberry. Her garden is full of light and dark purple flowers (over 300 of them!). And cake sparkles make the whole thing even more special! Happy 3rd birthday, Leah.

Ellie


Ellie Anne Laymon was blessed on August 5th and this is the cake I brought to the luncheon. It's covered in fondant and the pink decorations are painted with a pink pearl dust to make them sparkle!

Wilton Kids Camp Cupcakes


These are the cupcakes I taught some kids how to make at the Wilton Kids Camp held at Roberts. They all had fun making their own creations.

Happy un-Birthday Mom!


We are going to be on vacation for my mom's birthday, so I made her a cake before we left. She got to take it to work and share it with her co-workers.

Polka Dots and Stripes



This cake is covered and decorated in marshmallow fondant. The ribbon roses and the bow are the only things made out of pre-made gum paste. The 10" layer is Swiss Chocolate cake with chocolate bavarian cream filling. The 6" top layer is white cake with raspberry filling. I hope you and your family enjoyed it, Linda! I really enjoyed making it.

5 Little Dinosaurs Cake


My nephew turned 5 years old and this is the cake that my sister-in-law and I made. The volcano was shaped and then covered in chocolate frosting and then we added crushed oreo "lava rocks". The lava is colored piping gel, and so is the pond water. We made the trees from royal icing leaves and pretzel sticks. Five little dinosaurs and 5 little trees were the perfect touch for a 5-year-old birthday party!

Baby Shower



This is a baby shower cake I got to make for my good friend, Amber. It's a 6" and 9" cake covered in Marshmallow Fondant and decorated with gumpaste decorations. The 9" cake is a blue/white checkerboard cake inside. I would guess that this one took me around 4 hours to decorate. Congratulations Amber and Ryan!

pretty in pink (and brown)



10" square base is covered in pink MMF. The top 4" layer is covered in pre-colored brown fondant. I love working with fondant. I think the finished cake turns out so nice.
