Angry Birds for Isaac
Lots of fun doing this cake. All the pieces are fondant which I mixed with tylose. Cake is Chocolate with Mint chocolate chip cream cheese filling. YUM!
"Heartist" BBQ
This cake was for my son's band, Heartist. I took it to a 'family-of-the-band-members' BBQ. Since our boys are leaving for tour Nov. 25, 2012, they wanted the families to get together and get to know each other. It was a great day!
Marcia's birthday
I wanted to try this new technique. It's a fold and tuck with fondant. The centers are buttons made out of fondant. The entire cake is then dusted with luster dust. Time consuming, but fun.
Happy Birthday Marcia!
Jamie's 28th birthday
Flowers are "fabric flowers". They are made of fondant to look like flowers. All detail is fondant.
Happy Birthday, Daughter!

St. Jude "Breastival" cancer survivor celebration
This cake was made and donated to the "Breastival" at St. Jude Hospital. It's an event that celebrates breast cancer survivors. I am honored to donate every year.
Silver Anniversary
A very delicate cake for a 25th anniversary. I wanted to match the lavender flower that is on the topper. The cake is stenciled with silver luster dust. I added edible pearls for a final touch.
Under the Sea smash cake and cupcakes
This was for a first birthday for a co-workers' sister. The shells are all made of white chocolate and colored with various shades of luster dusts.
Nancy's 50th Birthday
Nancy really didn't want to turn 50. But she did! And she did it with such grace. I was very happy to do this fun themed cake for her celebration. One of Nancy's favorite things to do is go hiking, so it was very fitting to put her on a mountain surrounded by the things she loves. Everything was edible. It took quite a bit of time getting all the elements made, but when it was all put together, it was fantastic!
Here's to 50 more birthday's, Nancy! XOXO

Giraffe Baby Shower cake
This cake was a little bit of a challenge. The Giraffes head was a little tricky, but with the help of a great decorator/friend, Michelle, we pulled it off. The "wood slats" are made of chocolate. Clear bubbles are made with gelatin. A very cool technique I did using balloons. This cake was so much fun to make. Hope I could do another one some day.

Bryce's 22nd Birthday
This was a fun cake to do for my Son's 22nd Birthday. He is a singer in a band. (Yes, the name of the band is Heartist). I wanted to make the amp to really resemble a box so I chose to make gumpaste/fondant panels a couple of days in advance so I could get real nice clean straight sides.

Kristi and Jeremy's wedding
This was a different cake as far a flavor goes. The top and bottom tiers were both layered white and chocolate cake with hazelnut and bavarian cream filling. The center was Lemon cake with strawberry and cream cheese filling. YUMMY!

Hailey's 2nd Birthday
For Hailey's birthday party, Jamie decided to go with cupcakes this year. And of course #2 cookies. I threw in a little cake. Design was super easy and cute. For the little cake, I used the edible image sheets that are pre-colored. They worked better than I had hoped. For the lettering, I cut them out using the cricut cake machine. The cookies are covered in fondant and then painted with gel food colors. The top of the cupcakes are done with fondant and edible images.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL GRANDDAUGHTER!

Adam's 27th Birthday Fish Cake
I just loved doing this cake! To see it come alive, was so amazing. Next time I do one, I'll post start-to-finish pics. The cake was lemon with buttercream fill. The coloring was done with Luster dusts of different shades. All the accents are made with fondant. The "hooks" are made with chocolate. Everything is edible.
Happy Birthday to my Nephew, Adam. I love you!
