Beautiful Barbie Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my beautiful niece, Addy! Made her my first ever Barbie cake. :) Was a lot of fun! The dress is completely edible, about 2/3 chocolate cake and 1/3 rice krispy treat (around the midriff). The bodice is marshmallow fondant, and the rest of the icing is buttercream. Bottom layer is also chocolate cake, chocolate mousse filling and buttercream. In addition to having fun with the cake design, this time I got to play fashion designer and hair dresser too, ha ha! (Although I must admit, Barbie and I had some serious words over that hair, nearly came to blows.)











BOISE STATE BRONCOS FOOTBALL BIRTHDAY

Another Boise State Birthday Cake! Hope I don't run out of ideas for them ha ha. This one is vanilla with vanilla creme filling, though I surprised them and colored the cake itself blue and orange on the inside. :) Buttercream frosting and hand formed marshmallow fondant accents. Gotta LOVE that blue turf on top of the cake! Happy Birthday Brock! GO BRONCOS!!!

Coffee Logo Birthday Cake

My son and his co-workers threw a surprise birthday party for their boss, so I made them this 12" cake to help celebrate. Vanilla cake with vanilla creme filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. I used the coffee house logo, shown below, as inspiration. :) Pam sent me the most wonderful handmade thank you card . . . I just love it when people appreciate my cakes, makes it so worth it!





A 21st Birthday Martini Cake

Well, this cake was INTERESTING, for sure! Lol. The birthday girl, turning 21, wanted a martini cake, but her color scheme was gray and dark purple. Hmm? Well, this is what I came up with. Chocolate cake with cherry filling and buttercream frosting, I made the drinks, 21 and "bubbles" from vanilla candy melts. The curly ribbon is marshmallow fondant.





Simple, Elegant, Chocolate Buttercream Frosted Wedding Cake

This was a somewhat last minute cake for a bride who wasn't picky and let me choose the design for her small wedding cake. It's yellow cake filled with a layer of chocolate fudge and a layer of chocolate mousse. Chocolate buttercream frosting. The little flowers are marshmallow fondant. I really liked how it turned out like old leather . . . Was really a pretty effect.







Super Sweet Candy Birthday!

Had a great time designing and making this super sweet cake for mr super sweet niece, Gracie. Chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. The cupcake on top is a white chocolate base with a lid made of rice krispy treat and fondant. It opened up to reveal some hidden candy treats!







BOISE STATE FOOTBALL BIRTHDAY CAKE!!

Made this cake for the son of a dear friend of mine. They obviously have great taste and share my love (passion, really) for Boise State Football, heh heh. ;) It's vanilla cake with vanilla creme filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. The birthday crowd thought the filling was cake batter, lol, and loved it more for that, lol.
