Sweet Celebrations

polka dot giraffe

I consider it an honor to do a first birthday cake.  That might sound cheesy and well I am pretty cheesy, but I think that's a pretty special birthday.  This time the honor was given to me by my very favorite hair stylist, Kimmy.  Kimmy has a cute little boy and they celebrated with a polka dot giraffe cake.

 

Two tiers of the cake were yellow and one was chocolate, all with cream cheese filling and buttercream icing.  The decorations were fondant.  The smash cake was a small yellow cake with a giraffe on top carved out of cake and covered with fondant.

 

Thanks for looking and have a super weekend!

 

pink polka dots

 

I did this one around the end of November for a little girl's birthday. 

Cute. Simple. Girly.

 

curious george

A Curious George cake for a curious (not to mention adorable) little boy who turned one.  For another friend.  Another first birthday.  I love it!

The cake was all chocolate with fudge filling and buttercream icing.  All the decorations were marshmallow fondant.  Don't you love those little bananas? 

Happy Birthday Noah!!

  

3d "A"

This cake was mostly a repeat with a little twist.  It was fun with the bright pink, green and a 3d "A" on top.  Everything was cake and buttercream icing.  The polka dots and stripes were marshmallow fondant.

baby shower

 

This cake was yellow with chocolate buttercream filling and yellow with cream cheese filling.  It was all decorated and covered with marshmallow fondant.  I love baby shower cakes!  So fun!

 

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!

baby shower

This was a baby shower cake for a baby boy coming soon.

topsy turvy sweet 16

I believe this was my first sweet 16 cake and it was a lot of fun.  I really like the way it turned out.  The whole cake is yellow and marshmallow fondant.

 

first birthday

I'm a little behind on showing cakes but this is one from last weekend.  It was for a good friend's daughter who turned one.  She wanted the cake decorated like the fabric that she used to make the birthday girl's dress.  She also did center pieces to match.  The dress and the center pieces were very cute and the cake ended up matching pretty good.  Happy Birthday to H Bug!

Chocolate cake, peanut butter mousse filling, chocolate buttercream icing on bottom and white buttercream on top and fondant decorations.

 

 

technical difficulties and a baby shower

I have broken some kind of file path causing all of my pictures to disappear.  I would explain that further if I thought you were interested or if I even could explain it.  Probably couldn't!  So we'll just call it technical difficulties. The short of it is I'm having to go back in to every post and reload the pictures.  I've only done a few of the more recent ones so it will take me a while to get them all. 

I'm not happy about this, but such is life.......

While you wait here is a baby shower cake I did last week.  I love baby shower cakes.  It was fun except for the part where my electricity went out and I had to decorate the majority of it by using only one flash light.  But I think it turned out pretty cute anyway.

 

cookies and milk

My niece had her first birthday a couple of weeks ago.  The theme was very fun.  It was cookies and milk and the decorations were all pink and brown. 

 

She wasn't too happy about the singing happy birthday part.

 

She has to be the cutest thing ever even if I am partial.
