Fuhriman Wedding

This cake was marbled vanilla, chocolate and funfetti (the trend is catching!) with bavarian cream filling and fondant.

The bride wanted to surprise her dinosaur-loving groom with his own cake. Plus, he really wanted a spice cake, which she wasn't too keen on so this was a happy compromise! The cake was spice flavored with cream cheese filling and frosting. Rocks are candy coated chocolate rocks from Winco (in case you were wondering).

Relief Society Birthday

This was a cake to celebrate the birthday of our church women's organization, the Relief Society. The cakes were chocolate and vanilla with buttercream frosting. I had fun doing the ruffles and adding all the dainty little colored pearls.

Breaking Dawn 2 Party

This was the cake requested by my friend for her Breaking Dawn 2 party.

Cake was chocolate and red velvet with fondant decorations. For the black squares I found these wonderful things called Sugar Sheets made by Wilton. 

I got mine at Jo-Ann Fabrics with my 40% off coupon. They're wonderful for hard colors to mix like red and black. However, if you still want to mix your own, be sure to use Americolor super red or super black gel colors.

Pyne Wedding

This was a fun wedding cake. Bride and groom wanted the top layer chocolate, middle layer funfetti and the bottom layer styrafoam. Never seen a funfetti wedding cake before, but  what a fun choice that says so much about the bride and groom's personalities! Can you imagine everyone's reaction when they cut into that cake?

Anyway, onto the details . . . Like I said, top cake was dark chocolate with buttercream frosting and the middle layer was a white almond sour cream cake with sprinkles added. All three were covered in delicious homemade fondant. The flowers were fresh orchids.

Over The Hill cake

This was for my sister's 40th birthday back in October. Her husband was throwing her a surprise party and requested something with a "death" theme since she was turning 40 and the house was already decorated for Halloween. The cake was red velvet with Bavarian cream filling and chocolate Italian meringue buttercream. The flowers are gumpaste and the gravestone is covered in fondant. At the last minute I added yarn hair to a skull I found in the Halloween section at the store and placed it on top. This was such a fun cake to make!

Here's one of my sister with my oldest daughter. 

Breaking Dawn Party

Ashley Graduation

This was a bridal shower cake for a girl in my ward. I was told she liked pastels, especially purples. The cake is covered in fondant, the ribbon and daisy are real.

Peter Pan

My daughter turned 7 and wanted a Peter Pan cake after seeing this figurine set:

Chelsie

This cake was for a December 21st wedding. The decor was all damask black and white with accents of green so this is what I came up with. The top two cakes are Styrofoam forms and the bottom was chocolate and buttercream with fondant.

Minions

Birthday cupcakes for a little boy who wanted the minions from the movie, Despicable Me. The little guy is made out of half a Twinkie, Smarties for eyes and black licorice hair. You can find instructions and much better photos here.
Sorry for the fuzzy photo. I didn't know it was out of focus until after I dropped off the cupcakes. Speaking of dropping, this is the one I dropped in the sink right after taking this photo. Of course, there was a big bowl of soapy water right where my slippery fingers were hovering. Argh.

Cupcake Tower

This was a wedding back in August. The cupcakes were chocolate and lemon with fondant accents on top and real flowers tucked in between and on the top tier.

Katie's Baby Shower

This cake was for a baby shower for one of the youth leaders at church. Obviously, she's having a girl. ;o)

Puppy cake

 

This cake was for my daughter's 4th birthday. I carved up two 9 inch cakes then frosted with a grass tip. The tongue and eyes are candy.

Sweet 17

Orange Cream Confetti Cake with buttercream and fondant. This was for my niece's 17th birthday. She wanted a doll cake like the one she had when she was little. This was our somewhat grown-up version.

New Moon Party

New Moon party cake. Ruffled tulip is gumpaste. Cake is red velvet with chocolate mousse filling with buttercream and fondant. Ribbons and buttons are non-edible.

Lisa

Bride wanted me to replicate a cake she had a picture of. Bottom is chocolate with chocolate mousse and top 2 are lemon with lemon curd. All 3 tiers are 3-layer, 6-inch cakes.

Girl birthday

A birthday cake for my twin nieces. They picked a bug theme so I made some dragonflies and a butterfly for the top (although it's hard to see). I wrote their names out of the bug "trails" and dusted the holes with pink luster dust. I also dusted the flowers, dragonflies and butterfly.

baby shower cupcakes

I made these for a baby shower dinner for two friends - one is having a boy and the other a girl - so I sprinkled on some blue and pink dusting sugar and bought some plastic binkies at the dollar store. The cupcakes are cherry chip.

Sara

Here's the most recent cake I did. The cake is French Vanilla with Bavarian Cream filling, covered in buttercream and fondant (ribbon is fabric and flowers are fresh).
