Sledding Snowman Cake

Just a simple cake for a family Christmas celebration. Red velvet cake with white chocolate cream cheese filling, buttercream icing and marshmallow fondant accents.

Olaf Kit Kat Hot Tub Cake

I couldn't help myself, I saw another version of this little cake somewhere, and I knew I just had to make it. The cake itself is vanilla covered with buttercream surrounded by Kit Kat's. Olaf and the other snowmen are marshmallow fondant. So cute, I thought! And do you notice the snow man who lost his carrot nose, well,l of course, because he's melting! Just had to have some fun. This cake was a hit, and I'm glad I gave yet another Frozen cake, a try.

Another FROZEN Birthday Cake, featuring Olaf!

Just what the world needed, another frozen cake! LOL. Made this one for a friend at work, vanilla cake (dyed pink to make the birthday girl happy), vanilla créme filling, buttercream frosting with marshmallow fondant accents. Trees and Olaf are made out of rice crispy treat covered with buttercream and marshmallow fondant. 

Frozen Birthday Cake with Olaf, Elsa and Anna

Oh yes, I knew it would happen: Another frozen cake. LOL. This one is for friend of mine, and I knew it would be a challenge. Let me just say that faces may not be my area of strength! In fact, I redid the eyes on the lovely ladies on this cake not once, not twice, but three times! And still they don't make me happy!!! Grrr! Overall, I do think it turned out pretty well. I tried to make royal icing snowflakes, however, I need to find a better way to remove them from the wax paper. So many of them broke, I ended up with only six I could use :-(. So I ended up making more snowflakes out of fondant. I used quite a bit of sanding sugar to add some sparkle to the snowflakes and all over the cake. I do love how Olaf turned out, I think he's pretty cute! And while the theme song 'Let it Go' (UGH!) may be ringing in my head for a while and driving me crazy, I am pretty happy with this frozen cake. Which is probably a good thing, as I'm sure it won't be the last when I get a request for!

The cake is vanilla with buttercream frosting. All of the figures are marshmallow fondant, hand shaped.

Ok, I know, not as pretty as the 'real' Anna-but she's fictional so I know she'll never see this and think "OMG! It looks nothing like me!" LOL. 

How 'bout this Olaf though?! Even looks like he's dancing. ;-)

Snowman Christmas Cake

Surprise Christmas cake for my dear friend Darci and her family. :) Darci is one of those people who REALLY appreciate cake and cake decorations and the time it takes to do it. And I am one of those people who really appreciate people who appreciate . . . well, you get the idea, ha ha. At any rate, I knew that Darci had family coming into town and that this would be a perfect opportunity to surprise her with a cake the whole family could enjoy through Christmas. I even employed the help of her husband (who in turn, asked his son, who in turn asked his grandma, LOL) to get me a photo of their Christmas tree so I could see how it was decorated and try to coordinate the cake. Unfortunately, the photo was a little dark and had I known better I would have added lots of lime green and some red and green polka dots just to make it even more whimsical. I do think it turned out cute, all the same. Vanilla cake, vanilla creme (cake batter, lol, another story, another time) filling, buttercream frosting and hand formed marshmallow fondant accents. Darci loved it and I think they all enjoyed a little sweet surprise!

Penguin "Snowman" Christmas Cake

Fun little Christmas cake for a friends daughters choir fundraiser! Once again, I got to choose the design, as long as it was Christmas, which is my very favorite way to decorate a cake. Penguins are always a favorite, and I received lots of compliments on this one. I did search some cake photos online and then tweeked a cute one that I saw here: Link to Penguin Cake Photo I did change mine up, the snow penguin is all my own . . . brilliant, right? LOL
It's chocolate cake, raspberry filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents, and hopefully tasted as good as it was cute!

 

Isn't the little guy below adorable? I completely took that idea from the same photo as is linked above.

 

My 18 yr old 6'5" son has a thing for penguins. Cute, right? LOL. Anyway, he wanted me to make him one. I turned him down, but then changed my mind and made the below cutie and sent him text photo of it. He loved it. I guess you're never too old for a little penguin fun. ;o)
