Under the Sea Cake

This cake is for another faithful client that I have been making cakes for her children for a while now.  Her little girls birthday is the Little Mermaid and she has an ornament that she is placing on top of the cake so that is why it is blank on top, but honestly, I love it just the way it is. It has such bright beautiful colors that it needs no more. 

 

 

 

 

Lion King Baby Cake

 

Isn't he so darn cute? I was so determined that the lion look like Simba that I think I got very close to it.  Trying to sharpen my modeling skills and I feel I'm getting beter at it. He's so cute. I also made paw cookies for this shower.  This is for another faithful client.  I had the blessing of making her first baby's shower cake and cookies in the Zoo Crew Theme, then her baby's first birthday Cat in the Hat, his second birthday, Mickey's Playhouse , and now her second baby's shower. I am so happy they keep coming back for every special event in their lives. Hopefully I will continue being part of the ones to come. 

 

 

 

 

 

Whimsical ladybug Teapot

This teapot was my design 100% and I must say that says me all over it!  I wanted it to give you the feel of a ladybug without putting the bug on it.  When I finished it, I asked one of my girls: "what does it remind you of?" and she said "it reminds me of a lady bug". I smiled becuase I had done it.  I said it and I will repeat it, I've discovered that I love making teapots.  Can't wait to come up with other designs.  The recipient of this cake was very happy and that filled my heart with joy.

Flower Teapot and cookies

A client was having a tea party for Mother's Day and she asked me to make her a teapot cake.  she showed me several pictures, but showed me one she loved and asked me to make it for her.  Although it's not exactly the same. It still has the same feel.  I am really satisfied with how clean it came out.  It really resembled a teapot. I am so happy with how it turned out and discovered that I love making teapots from cake. I made some cookies for another order for someone else that was also haveing a  tea party for Mother's Day.  I decided to use left over flowers to decorate these as well and took a picture of them as a set. Absolutely love  how they turned out. My client loved the teapot. Yay!

 

Jungle Cake

This cake was for a baby shower for an expectant mommy of a baby boy!  I am in love with the monkey. The cake is 3 tiers and serves a 12, 10 and an 8 inch. Each tier is 4 inches high. 

 

 

 

 

 

Miami Heat Cake

I think the client that ordered this cake found me online or through a friend. This cake was fun to

make. I really enjoyed creating the elements for it.  It's 100% edible. This can be done for any team as well.

 

 

 

Cat in the Hat Cupcakes and Cakepops

I have done Cat in the Hat goodies before with more elements, but I figured I'd put these up because this is slightly different.  These were for a baby shower.  The client was referred to me by another client.  The cake-pops are red velvet, the cookies are vanilla flavor, and the cupcakes are yummy cookies and cream (to die for).  I delivered these and I was in panic mode because it was so hot and humid and I was scared that the cake pops would melt, but they made it in one piece.  The client loved her goodies. I'm sure she will be calling me for her baby's birthday.

 

 

 

Pretty Pink and lavender Bow Cake

A good friend of mine that always orders all her cakes from me contacted me telling me she needed a cake.  It's a good thing she trusts me because I didn't even meet or even really talked about what she really wanted in  detail.  She sketched up a drawing and made some lines pointing to the colors she wanted. I interpreted the cake as best I could because really, this is a fairly simple cake that I can do with my eyes closed, but you never know, lol!  When she saw it she loved it. Yay! was relieved!

The flavor is Leelee's moist Vanilla bean.

Fluttering butterflies baby shower sweets

I love butterflies, so when this beautiful mother to be told me she wanted butterflies for her baby shower theme, I was elated! I absolutely loved the wonderful pastel girly colors used. On our consultation we decided on vanilla cream cake pops, butter cookies, and red velvet with cream cheese flavor for the cake and cupcakes. The cupcakes I only sprinkled with pink sanding sugar because she had purchased some edible butterflies and was placing them herself at the venue.
The sweets made her happy which made me happy as well. She texted me the following message:

"Thank you so much for everything!!!! It all was beautiful and amazingly delicious!!!!
I had a lot of people asking me for your info cuz they were impressed!!! :). Couldn't have been more satisfied!!! :)))))"

Another satisfied client. Yay!

Lalaloopsy cookies

I love making things for my client Karla, she always gives me the green light to do whatever I want for her girls parties. This time though, she ordered some goodies for a friend's party. I made her cookies, pretzel sticks covered and chocolate and choco-Oreos. Karla makes these beautiful banners that are just too gorgeous.  If you are interested, in one just let me know and I will have her contact you.

American Girl "Coconut" doggie cake

This is a client that has the cutest little girls. She sometimes celebrates their birthdays together because the dates are so close.  I have had the privilege of making their cakes for quite a while now. I know I've made other cakes for them, but these are the ones I remember from the top of my head:
Wall- E Cake
Mickey Playhouse
Tangled
Toy Story

Thise year the girls wanted a cake that showed their favorite American Girl pet Coconut. I could have molded it, but I had already done something like that.  I wanted it to be fun and playful, almost cartoon like, so I did it this way and was so pleased with the results.  The bottom of the cake has the other little pets the AG have.  This cake was fairly small, 10x10 and 4 inches high. The flavor was vanilla bean with vanilla frosting.  Simple but delicious. 

Sail Away with Me Valentine's Dinner Party

Every year I host a themed Valentine's Dinner party. This year I called it "Sail Away with Me". I love color combinations and I found the royal blue and yellow appropriate for the theme. I asked the guests to come dressed in nautical attire and as a party favor I had gob hats for everyone that I placed hanging from each chair, My husband was the only one with a captains hat.   I had prepared a playlist with awesome backgroud music. I created an appetizer station with nautical props.We also had a time of pictures.   My appetizers included, bacon wrapped scallops with a tangy sauce, mushroom caps filled with crab meat, coconut shrimp with a mango sauce, crab dip with savory crackers and a ceviche individually served in shooter glasses paired with a Sauvignon blanc. Dinner was oh so yummy, Surf and Turf. The surf was a delicious shrimp scampy and the turf was filet mignon with a red wine reduction sauce, paired with a nice Pinot Noir wine. Dessert was a chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ganache and then decorated with fondant to look like the sea with a boat. Chocolate covered strawberries, mini chocolate trifle shooters and other goodies. Everyone is looking forward to next year to see what fun theme I come up with.  Little do they know that I'm already working on it.
