My little princess birthday

Of course I always plan extra special cakes for my kids birthday's. This year my daughter requested a princess party. So, of course we needed an edible purple castle to go along with the party. All started out well .. but this cake turned out to be a nightmare. Long story short .. it ended up falling in on the bottom layer, so our 3 story castle became 2 & it wasn't anywhere near perfect ... but it still tasted yummy & the girls still thought it was amazing - especially my little birthday princess (so that's all that really matters). Lesson learned ... don't place the cake (without supports) temporarily when it's hot - it will get stuck. . .

Oh and the super cute princess dress cupcake where a must as well! They were the perfect size for the girls.

1st, 5th & 90th Birthday

I've had lots of cake jobs lately - here are some of the birthday's that I've done recently.

A 1st birthday for a very special boy - my youngest nephew, Ty.

A 5th birthday. It was a Wild Kratt's theme (a TV show), it's my son's favorite TV show, so he helped me design the cake. It was a huge success!

A 90th birthday party. The guest of honor was thrilled to have a cake in her honor. I was glad that it held up, it was pretty much the hottest day of the year.

And I made LOTS of red velvet cupcakes for a graduation party. Of course I had to sample one, since it is my favorite with yummy cream cheese frosting!

40th Anniversary

My sister had to make a cake for a 40th anniversary party - so she baked it & I decorated it. I should do all my cakes like that - it makes it so much easier :).
It turned out really nice!

Candy and Roses

A candy themed birthday for Karis. 

A cake for a 90th birthday

Leopard Print Cake

I did a leopard print cake for a tween birthday.

It turned out super cute.

I hand-painted all of the leopard spots.

It is a 2 tiered cake, but had to be assembled on-site, so I didn't get a final photo.

Angry Birds

An Angry Birds cake for my nephew's birthday!

His dad made some super cute cake pops to go along with the cake too.

Horse Party

Andy celebrated his 5th birthday with a horse themed party. At school with his friends he had horse shaped cupcakes.

His party was at a ranch complete with a horse shaped cake. The best part - it was covered in chocolate frosting! Yum.
