Happy Birthday Gary

This weekend, on top of making an anniversary cake and a birthday cake, I have made one more birthday cake. I made a white cake with three layers of French Vanilla pudding and fruit (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and strawberries.) The cake is frosted with real whipped cream which I flavored with granulated sugar and vanilla extract.

Happy Birthday Ben!

Tomorrow (5/31/10) is my brother-in-laws birthday. For his birthday I made him a Boston Cream Cake. It's a super moist yellow cake with a delectable French Vanilla Pudding in between the two layers. To top it off, I made a chocolate glaze which tastes delicious......Happy Birthday Ben...ENJOY!

Happy Anniversary Tammy and Luther!

Yesterday I made a 12" and 8" square carrot cake for Tammy and Luther's anniversary. This carrot cake is a wonderful recipe and I am glad I came across it! It seems like this is my signature cake :) The cake is frosted and decorated with cream cheese frosting.

God Bless Bryce and Happy Birthday Grams!

Today was my baby cousin's christening and my grandmothers birthday. For the christening cake I made a marble swirl cake with a layer of raspberry mousse. Everyone raved about this cake and my neighbor ended up taking the extra mousse home! It came out better than expected and it makes me very happy. The second cake I made was a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting which couldn't have made my grandma happier....3/4 of the cake was gone by the time the after party was over.

Mike's Birthday-Last One

So I decided not to add anything else to Mike's birthday cake. I don't want to make the cake become too busy especially because it is so gorgeous already :) I hope he enjoys the cake! Happy Birthday Mike!

* Well, Mike loved the cake! He gave me a big thumbs up :)

Mike's Birthday Cont.

Well, I finished Mike's 50th birthday carrot cake and it looks delicious! Not sure if I am going to add anything else to it; I will decide tonight and put on finishing touches tomorrow if need be. This carrot cake is topped with cream cheese frosting and it's one of the best cake recipes I've come across.

Congratulations Yojaira!

I made a cake for Yojaira's baby shower yesterday. The cake is covered with blue fondant and the blocks have buttercream frosting. The whole cake was a delicious strawberry. My favorite part was the bumblebee. What a hit!
