Disney...Christmas and Gardening... Who Would Have THought!

I was contacted by Christine a while ago about making her Mom a special cake. She asked if there was any way we could combine her favorite things... Christmas, Gardening and (My favorite...Disney!)

So right away I thought- Mickey heads in a garden! But I was a little confused with how to get christmas in there... Until i saw in my head a picket fence! Filled with garland of course!

These Mickey heads are gumpaste. I added alot of sparkle to give it that pixy magic and lots of little hand sculpted flowers and leaves. The top is crushed chocolate cookies with a three layer chocolate cake. Fillings are Chocolate with melted chocolate and Vanilla with real vanilla bean!

Here is a close up of the flowers that I love!!!

Christine, Thank you so much for allowing me to make this cake! It is my all time favorite!

N-I-C....K-E-Y... Nickey turns 1!

Mickey for Nicky!! Nicholas turned one this Month, and his mom decided that they would have a Mickey Theme for his birthday!
Nicholas is the biggest blue eyed smiley baby in the world, so I thought... Why not make him as a figure!

It seems like the Mickey hats are becoming my trademark piece and I AM LOVING it! They take over two weeks to create but they are WELL worth it. If you look close... you can see that Nicholas is holding a mickey head!

Mommy cupcake made extra large Mickey head cookies to match the cake and invitations! The cookies all had the number one on them! Awesome Job Mommy Cupcake!

Mickey Themed Shower

Beth and Lauren had contacted us about Jodi's Baby Shower. Since Jodi decided to not find out the sex of the baby, it was important to keep the cake and favors neutral.

So, Jodi's mom Beth decided to stick with Yellows and Green, and her daughter, Lauren, helped figure out what to do for the top! A Mickey Mouse True To Life Baby Hat! :)

Beth had also decided that the favors should represent the cake as well. When she saw our onesie cookies previously she decided that's what she had to have! So, Mom threw some Mikey heads on the bibs, and VIOLA! Again wonderful job from Mommy Cupcake!!

I created the favor tags to go with the color's and used the Disney Font that we are so usd to seeing.

Congratulations Jodi!

Grooms Take The Cake!

Hey Everyone!

So... My first real attempt at a fondant cake!
See... I wanted to make something special for my Fiance... but once I started to get some quotes I felt like... Hey... I can do this!

So... Hubs love for Black Jack gum and Disney have been my big inspiration for this cake.

For those of you who don't know, Blackjack gum is only sold at a certan time every year. It's liccorice flaver (yuck) which happens to be his favorite! So... Here is my take... and the hubs reaction to the cake!

The cake is a vanilla pound cake on both the top and bottom with vanilla buttercream.
