New website!!!

I know it's been a while since I've posted any cake pictures on here. It's been crazy lately with cake orders and I haven't had the time to post anything on here. Plus I'm very excited to announce that I officially have a website:) It was put together by one of my friends who is a graphic designer. She designed my logo, business cards, and built my website. My new website is www.katiescakesaz.com.

Also because she did such an amazing job with designing everything, I have to highly recommend my friend Jennifer if you are ever in need of any marketing tools for your business. Her website is www.graphic-gal.com.

I'll be sure to start posting more pictures as well. This week is going to be a busy one, so I'll have several pics to post.

Another Round of Cakes...

This was a really fun cake to make. I used one of my son's little Lightning McQueen diecast cars as my model.

The theme for this cake was pink and gold. I made the flowers out of gumpaste and brushed them with gold lustre dust (which you can't seen in the picture), then I finished them off with gold dragees.

Sock Monkey

This cake was for a friend's son and daughter whose birthdays are close. She wanted a cake that would fit both of them, so we decided a sock monkey would do the trick. The best part is that he is edible too. He's made from Rice Krispie treats and modeling chocolate.

A Wine Lover's Birthday Cake

My father-in-law turned 70 this past week and to celebrate his birthday, my mother-in-law asked me to make him a special cake. He's a wine lover, so I thought this cake would be perfect for him.

Minnie Mouse Cake

This cake was for a Minnie Mouse themed birthday party. It was the first time I used a layering Cricut cartridge and I was pretty happy with the results. This cake was a banana cake with chocolate ganache filling. It was loved by both the kids and adults.
