Baseball Celebration

Made this cake as a fundraiser donation, which is not my favorite thing to do. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE to support a cause when it's a good cause and I'm able, but this cake was requested for a dessert auction people just don't realize what custom cakes are worth, how much time and effort goes into them. This one was no different, went for a fairly low bid, but I did have the satisfaction of knowing it went to some great people. :) And I did like how the cake turned out, so still had that satisfaction. But if you want to ask me to donate a cake, be aware I will probably turn down future requests for that type of auction. I'll be happy to make you something simpler, if I have the time and means, perhaps.

This cake is red velvet, with cream cheese filling and marshmallow fondant, hand cut, accents.

Unicorn with Rainbow Birthday Cake

Kids LOVE unicorns, and there is no scarcity of unicorn cakes on the internet. My challenge, though, was to make a cake for an ADULT who likes unicorns, rainbows, panda bears and stars. . . Which is all the direction I had. I dont know the cake recipient well, but hope that this cake was not too childish for her. Or maybe at least brought her inner kid out and put a little fun and whimsy into her birthday. :-)

The cake is double chocolate, with chocolate fudge filling and buttercream frosting. The rainbow is licorice and the unicorn, stars and flowers are marshmallow fondant.
