Swirls Wedding Cake and A Helper!

This buttercream wedding cake included three tiers. Two vanilla with buttercream, with the middle tier chocolate with chocolate buttercream. Each tier was decorated with piped swirls in three different colors. I don't usually do just buttercream cakes, so this was a fun change of pace. I was pleased with the result.


My cute daughter is always so patient as I decorate cakes. This time I made her a small cake to decorate for herself. She made piles and piles of frosting on top! Mmmm! I think we have a future sugar artist on our hands. :)

Purple Cake with White Flowers


I just finished this cake and have to say it is one of my favorites I have done! I LOVE the giant white flowers. I know the picture makes the cake look blue, but I promise it was a deep purple. The cake was vanilla with raspberry buttercream, and raspberry filling.

Airplane Cake


This airplane cake was for a 1 year old birthday. The cake was chocolate with chocolate buttercream. The airplane was made of rice krispies, hence the bumps. :/ Next time I'll try something different.

Ladybug, Daisy, and Butterfly Cupcakes


I was asked to do cupcakes for a 1 year old birthday party, and they were so much fun to do! I went with a lime green, purple, and bright pink color scheme. The toppers included ladybugs, butterflies, and daisies with yummy flavors as well. All the cupcakes were vanilla, but there were 3 different frosting flavors: lemon blueberry, raspberry cream cheese, and lemon cream cheese! Yum!
