Pink and Green Zebra Fashionista Birthday Cake

Love love love all my nieces and nephews, and so it makes it a lot of fun to get to make their special cakes for them. The best part is that they usually just give me the theme and general color scheme and let me play with my creativity to make the "cake creation." While I usually have a general direction, I never know exactly how the finished product will look.

For this cake, Gracie wanted zebra stripes, with the main colors pink and green. Here's how it turned out:

Fancy Batman Wedding Cake!

What a fun time I had with this cake! It's similar to a couple of other cakes on the web, but I made the details my own. :) 

 

Top tier is vanilla cake, middle is strawberry and the bottom is lemon. All with French vanilla creme filling. Buttercream frosting, marshmallow fondant accents. I hand piped the scrolling, and did it first in navy blue, then ice blue, loved the effect. 

Hand cut the cityscape from mmf, then used yellow buttercream for the "lights." Batman is hand formed from mmf. The effect I was going for was that he was crawling out from under the flowered wedding topper. :) 

The wedding couple loved their unique cake, and it fit right in with their fun and creative wedding!

Star Wars Birthday

Made this fun little cake for my sweet nephew. Vanilla cake with vanilla cream filling and buttercream frosting with marshmallow fondant accents. :) Yoda's ears seem big, but I swear they are the same perspective  as the photo I used to model. Hmmm. 

Lil' Pumpkin Baby Shower Cake

I can't take credit for this cute pumpkin baby shower cake idea. I was commissioned to make it and they sent me a picture. I do think it turned out pretty cute though. The pumpkin itself is two vanilla bundt cakes, the bottom one is turned upside down. They are covered in butter cream frosting. The babies head and pumpkin hat are rice krispy treat covered with marshmallow fondant. 

Giraffe Birthday Cake

I LOVE it when an idea you have turns out just like you wanted it to! This is one of those cakes for me. :) I enjoyed making it and really love the result, all for giraffe loving Chelsea's 18th bday. Vanilla cake, raspberry filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. Giraffe is hand formed and I think turned out perfect.:)

Baby Shower Cupcakes

Decided to go sweet, simple and neutral for these little cuties. Used a fondant mold for the flowers, but hand formed the other accents. Vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting and, of course, marshmallow fondant.



Happy Birthday Song Cake

Twenty years later and I may have run out of themes for my oldest son, ha ha. He wasn't much help with ideas, do I just opted to wrap the birthday song around the cake, lol. Not my favorite but it worked out ok. :) Yellow cake with chocolate frosting, always his fave.

Whimsical Sweet Sixteen Birthday Cake

Baby Boy First Birthday

Sweet little cake . . . Chocolate fudge cake with chocolate creme filling, buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. Again, loved the simplicity!

Dora the Explorer Birthday Cake!

Colorful and fun cake! Funfetti cake with vanilla creme filling and buttercream frosting. There are some toys on the cake, but I made the backpack, map, stars and presents from marshmallow fondant.

Baby Feet And Polka Dot Baby Shower Cake

Just a cute little cake: chocolate cake with buttercream frosting, marshmallow fondant and sugar pearl accents. Sometimes sweet and simple is just right. :)
