Despicable Me!

This cake was for Bubba's 5th Birthday.  He wanted a Minion themed party and his mom picked out a picture of this cake that they wanted.  The Minion is three layers in yellow - chocolate - yellow.  The little cake is all chocolate.

My first adult themed cake!

3D Horse Cake

Maddix turns 4 this year and wanted a horse cake. This cake was done in chocolate with buttercream icing and fondant. This cake begins as a 1/2 sheet cake. I also made 20 chocolate cupcakes with green icing to accompany the cake.

Marley turned 2 and needed a pink Minnie Mouse cake. Yellow cake torted into 4 levels with buttercream, fondant, and royal icing ears.

Sonic the Hedgehog

Trey turned 7 and wanted a Sonic c

ake. The cake is Chocolate with buttercream.

Epi's Birthday

This cake was from last December. It was a candy barrel cake for my friend Epi.

Forced Resignation Party

The Executive Director at one of the state agencies I worked at was finally forced to resign last week. In celebration of his demise, my ex coworkers purchased this cake for a party. They requested the cake be red velvet to complete the effect when they cut him up to eat. This cake used a new technique of Frozen Butter Cream transfer that I enjoyed trying for the first time. I look forward to many ways to use this technique! This cake was 1/2 a sheet cake in size.

Cupcakes for Brandi's Shower

Yellow cupcakes. Some with Chocolate icing and the others with Cream Cheese icing. I made the blue diaper pens candies also. Great idea for a shower.

Baby Rump

This cake was done for Cristi Kidd's baby shower on 3-27-10.

This was the first time I had tried something like this and I already know all the things I would do differently the second time around. :)

Mom's 60th Birthday Cake

This was the beach themed cake I made for my mom's 60th Surprise Party. It was Yellow cake with Buttercream Icing and FondX. The "sand" was vanilla wafers run through the food processor. Everything on here except the cake board is edible. :)

Ryan's (my boss) Birthday Cake

Strawberry cake with Cream Cheese icing was the birthday boys request. I was trying to go for something more manly than my typical flower covered cakes. Polka dots was the best I could do. Ryan isn't into sports or any of the other manly things that come to mind. So, polka dots it was. :)

Michelle's Birthday Cake

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures before all the candles went in. These cakes are my favorite though. The basket weave is a little time consuming, but I just think it looks so great.

Brandi's 30th Birthday Cake

Cristi's B-Day

This cake was easier than most. It was a yellow cake with chocolate cream cheese icing. I was pretty happy with the way this turned out, but hope to better perfect my writing skills in the future.

Shower Cake

This cake was made for Kate's baby shower. The Yellow turned out a bit brighter than I would have liked, but all in all it was a success. I made all of the little animals from royal icing to match a quilt from little Brady's room.

Grangraw's Birthday Cake

Wedding Shower - Bell

This cake was for a Wedding Shower/Bachelorette Weekend for my friend Brandi back in March 2007. Not sure I will go to these lengths for that kind of party again though. People just don't eat cake with Beer and Wine. Lesson learned, but it was yummy and turned out good too. I was able to use some of my roses, daffodils, and pink violets for this. Guess it's time to make some more flowers. I'm getting a bit low.

Golf! Golf!

A surprise cake for my Father's 60th Birthday in December 2007.

This cake took a while to put together. Between the pieces and all the cutting of the cake to make the shapes. Not to mention the coloring of all the fondant I was worn out. Almost no cake was left after the party though. So, I know it was a hit and well worth my time.

Small Wedding Cake

This cake was done for some friends 10th wedding anniversary June 2007. They had eloped 10 years ago and never had a wedding cake. I was so excited to get to surprise them with this. Congratulations Beth and Charlie McDaniels

The cake was a basic yellow cake with butter cream icing. I then covered the cake with fondant and added accents with more butter cream. The yellow roses are actual flowers. I wasn't convinced I could make yellow icing roses look as good as the real thing.

Strawberries and Chocolate

Here is a cake I did for Robin and Earl's joint Birthday gathering.

The cake was a basic yellow cake with chocolate cream cheese icing. It was a major hit at the party and turned out beautifully!
