PINK, PINK, PINK!
This is for a little girl turning 3 and her only request was...Pink, Pink, Pink! She wanted Pink cake and Pink icing and I could choose a theme.
I chose Hello Kitty as that is popular with
girls of that age and fit the color them perfectly.
The cake was a Pink Mock Angelfood cake with pink buttercream icing. The kitty was made of fondant/ gumpaste combination.
Parker's 7th Birthday
This was last minute...my own fault.
I wasnt going to be home to decorate
anything but also forgot to buy a treat for my sons birthday so ended up making these late one evening so he could have a treat to bring to school. I had some leftover blue icing from and wanted to use it up. So I thought "fish" would suit the occassion. I didnt have enough "dry" time for my fish but the kids loved them all the same.
The cupcakes were "blue" sour cream white cake with regular buttercream.
Happy Birthday Parker

For a gentlemen who is celebrating
his birthday who enjoys playing
pool.
The cupcakes are Sour Cream White
with regular buttercream. The cupcakes are
large size as the board is a 16x16 and they
go end to end almost. Hard to tell
sizing by the picture so I thought
I would include that for those of you interested.
Snowmobile Cake
For a little boy celebrating
his 5th birthday.
Sour Cream Chocolate cake with white
buttercream. Also another 1st for me
in sculpting a fondant/gumpaste
snowmobile. She said they had an older "yellow"
one but I forgot to ask the brand..
Yamaha or Ski-Doo so just
picked one brand as Im sure the little boy wont mind

John Deere Tractor
This is a Sour Cream Chocolate
Cake for a cute little boy turning 2.
He loves watching all the machinery
going by outside this time of the year so
the mother chose to incorporate this into his birthday.

It is approx. 3"x 3" on a oval cake to serve 10.
Happy Birthday Mason
Flower Pot Cupcake
A small cupcake flower pot to celebrate
a birthday. Not exactly what I envisioned due
to the fact I couldnt find certain items and colors
that I thought would be easy to find
so I had to make due with what I had.
The cupcakes were Carrot Cake with
Cream Cheese Icing
