This cake was FUN FUN FUN to make! I'm not sure it could be any more "girly" lol. Two tiers, 2 layers each, of french vanilla cake. Filling is raspberry filling sandwiched between french vanilla creme. Buttercream frosting. The purse is made from rice krispy treat covered in marshmallow fondant. The jewelry and makeup are all marshmallow fondant. Sorry for all the pics, but there's a lot of detail on this one. :o)

NEON Lights BRIGHT BRIGHT BRIGHT Birthday Cake

Happy 18th birthday to my son Jay's friend Allissa! They're had a surprise party for her, all NEON, so Jay asked me to make a coordinating cake. It turned out super bright and I hope they had fun and enjoyed it! Both tiers are two layers of vanilla cake with french vanilla creme filling and buttercream frosting. The cupcakes are dark chocolate fudge with buttercream frosting.

WILD and CRAZY Colorful Birthday Cake

This WILD and CRAZY cake was just F-U-N. The birthday girl wanted bright colors, specifically:n eon green, purple, hot pink, and turquoise blue. She wanted polka dots, stripes, swirlies and zebra print. I think I got it all in, ha ha. The cake is 10" on the bottom and 6" on top, both 2 layers of red velvet cake with vanilla cream filling. The frosting is buttercream. The "13" on top is rice krispy treat covered in buttercream.

DELICIOUS Rocky Mountain High School Baseball Cake

Mmm mmm mmm. Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. Mmmmmmm. Add some raspberry filling sandwiched inbetween chocolate mousse under chocolate fudge and I believe you have something real special.
I think this would be a very delicious cake, but I didn't get to taste it, lol. It's 2 layers of chocolate fudge cake (with pudding AND sour cream) and chocolate mousse AND raspberry filling, with chocolate fudge frosting and buttercream accents. The baseball and logo are free-handed with buttercream frosting. :o) Here's what the cake taker said: "Hi Cathy! We actually bid on this cake at the auction and it was quite deilicious!!" (I know that she meant delicious, I will take it any way you want to spell it, ha ha).
