Kelly and Greg's Wedding!!!!!

The Big Day!!! Kelly and Greg got married! I am so happy for my sister and new brother-in-law! Even though this was last year, I am still so happy for the both of them. This was a simple cake. The bottom tier was a marble cake and the top two tiers were cherry nut cake. The whole thing is frosted in buttercream frosting that i made to match the bridal parties dresses.


Kelly's Bridal Shower Cake

This was a delicious two layers of angel food cake and one layer of whipped cream with strawberries in the middle. Just like a strawberry short cake!
I know Kelly enjoyed this cake and I hope you do to! If you want a recipe email me or leave a post on the blog. I'd be happy to share any of my recipes anytime. Even my popular real whipped cream frosting.

Bethany's Baby Shower

Sooo I spent many hours on this cake (because I don't normally decorate cakes like this). I really enjoyed myself on this one. This was a baby shower cake for my sister. As you can see, it was based off this painting that is now hanging in the baby's room.

This cake was a white cake with buttercream frosting and oreo cookies in the center. It was DELICIOUS!


These cupcakes are made out of angel food cake. I soaked cut up strawberries in sugar for about an hour. *Soaking strawberries in sugar brings out their juices* Be careful not to soak them too long; we didn't want them to be too juicy here. Then I cut out some of the middle of each cupcake and put a scoop of juicy strawberry in each one. Topped the cupcake with whipped cream and a strawberry slice. These were a hit! I even made this in cake form for my other sister's bridal shower! 


Peyton's Birthday

My cousin Peyton had a reptile themed birthday. I made a cupcake cake (don't worry it's a good one!)
...I believe it's a crocodile but it may be an alligator (I can't remember now). I also made those froggie cupcakes! The croc is made out of 24 funfetti cupcakes with green buttercream frosting. I hand-piped many many pearls on top of each cupcake. The spiky backs are made with hershey chocolates, the teeth are made out of cut up marshmallows, the claws are made from yellow (banana) runts and the eye is made from a yodel that I frosted green.

Sorry I don't have a better picture of the frogs but they were frosted and dipped in green sprinkles. The eyes are made of a marshmallow (cut in half, frosted and dipped in green sprinkles). The pupils are made up of a single chocolate chip.

(Another) Melissa's Bridal Shower

This next cake is another bridal shower cake.....My cousin Tim got married, to a Melissa as well, and I was asked to make the cake. Soo here is it!........


......With just a few shells, you can have a fabulous cake! Anything (within reason) can make a great cake decoration.

Melissa's Bridal Shower Cake

Okay sooooo like I said I want to update all the cakes I have done from 2010 until now. Here is the first of many. My cousin Eric got married and I made the bridal shower cake for the bride, Melissa. It was a marble cake with buttercream frosting. And boy was it yummy!
