Happy Valentines Day!



This year I had the opportunity to bake two beautiful red velvet cakes for a Valentines Day celebration. Both cakes are frosted and filled with a nice rich cream cheese frosting. And then decorated with a red velvet cake crumbs.

Football!!!!

For my brothers 20th birthday I baked him this lovely vanilla cake with butter cream frosting. He is the biggest Carolina panthers fan I know, so I decided to make him a cake that was a replica of the Carolina panthers helmet. I hand traced the logo onto the cake and then finished icing the logo in black,blue and white. This cake was and still is one of my favorites. The cake was completed after frosting it using a nice star tip piping technique.

Happy 40th MOM!

This is my moms 40th birthday cake. Each tier is frosted in butter cream and covered in fondant. There are also gum paste butterflies on each tier and fondant flowers as well. Each tier is a vanilla cake filled with vanilla butter cream.

#1 Stunna Cake

 This cake was made for the #1 Stunna Motorcycle Club. On the top is the motorcycle clubs logo along the side is all of the chapters in the motorcycle club (well all the ones that could fit). The cake is a chocolate cake covered in vanilla butter cream. Everything on the cake was hand drawn and piped.

German Chocolate

 My dad was out of the country and I figured what a great chance to use this homemade German chocolate frosting recipe. Of course he lovvess German chocolate cake so I got to work on the cake. Throughout the whole process of making the cake I thought I would mess up on the frosting but in the end it turned out great and the cake tasted wonderful!!!

Polka Dot Frenzy


Before 
After
 This was a birthday cake done for a 4 year olds birthday party. Initially I made the cake with both polka dots and flowers but the client decided she would rather just polka dots so I took all of the flowers off. I personally liked it with the flowers on it but both came out nice and tasted just as great. The top tier is chocolate and the bottom tier is vanilla. Both tiers were iced in vanilla butter cream and then covered with fondant. Also on the cake board I did a little airbrush (I had just got one for my birthday and figured I could practice with it). All in all the cake turned out wonderful.   


Birthday Cake



This is a Birthday cake for my mom's boss. He is a cowboys fan so I made him a blue and white star cake. The cake is a chocolate cake iced in vanilla butter cream icing. The cake was covered with a star tip in both blue and white butter cream icing.
