Cakes from this weekend...

Zebra Cake
Grown up cowboy birthday cake

My youngest son's 2nd birthday cake.

Cupcakes!

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.

Ladybug Baby Shower Cake

I made this cake and cupcakes for a friend of a friend's babyshower today. The new mom-to-be loves red and loves ladybugs, so I made a cake that would incorporate those two elements. This has got to be one of my favorite cakes that I have made. Also, the inscription on the cake could not be more appropriate given that we are experiencing actual showers today.

Valentine's Day

A friend's husband called me and asked me to make this last-minute cake for Valentine's Day. He didn't specify any decorations that he wanted, and all my friend really cared about was having a red velvet cake, but it gave me another chance to try out some more designs with my Cricut using gumpaste.

A few more...

One of the mini cakes I made for my cousin's bridal shower.
My cousin showed me a picture from a magazine of the exact wedding cake she wanted. The only thing we changed is that she wanted square cakes, instead of round.


I made this cake in order to practice a new technique of using my Cricut machine to cut fondant and gumpaste. Obviously my attempt to cheer on the Colts fell a little short on Super Bowl Sunday.

3rd birthday cake

This cake was for my oldest son's 3rd birthday. The pirate ship is florist's foam that I carved and then covered in fondant. The trees are made of gumpaste.
