Mothers Day 2010

So, I decided... Why not try something awesome for Mother's Day?
You know...Just to see if maybe I have something here lol

So, I gave it my all and came up with my "Sweet Mothers" Cake!
Chocolate top, Lemon drop bottom!!

He's Electric!

So, My husband's birthday approached quicker than I had expected... So, while he was at school I decided to start making him an electrician cake!

Millies 60!

So, let's talk a little about my Mother In Law. It's not what you think! I promise. I LOVE HER.


You know those people who give and give and give and genuinely want NOTHING in return?


Thats her.

So... I decided that my first major two layer cake- although playing it safe- would be for her.

The top layer is carrot cake, and the bottom layer is lemon drop cake.

I made this awesome fondant that I got off of a website (That I can't find now!!) but its marshmellows! It is so amazing and delicious and soft and easy to work with!

She has a dog, names scrappy that she loves, she loves to garden... and she is the ultimate grandma! So0.. I added all those into her cake!
Okay, maybe I over accentuated her..um... top... but I didn't know how else to do it just yet!!

I also decided that I would try my hand at some fondant cookies! Hey, she's 60 why not?!

Happy 2010!

I havn't posted much because we have been so very busy figuring out what we are going to be doing regarding Little Sprinkle because...,

It's A Baby Boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so beyond excited because I knew from day one that it would be a boy! And all I've been doing is thinking about how I can make the most amazing cakes now for him! Wonderpets? Tools? AHHH DINOSAURS!

Now, I am even more determined to make this cake business happen. Hopefully my ability doesnt get worse with the whole big belly thing! lol

Next Up... A Baby Sprinkle!

Woah! Here I was thinking I was taking a big step begining my fondant cakes... and wouldn't you know...

Mother Nature had other plans!
We are expecing Baby Sprinkle in July 2010! And already I can not wait to begin to make cakes! Maybe I might go as far as making a cake for my own baby shower!

We will see!

We havn't told anyone yet (Not even Mommy Cupcake) because we are waiting for the three month mark, although I don't think I can hold out much longer!!

Love and Sprinkles!!

A Little Fat Never Killed Anyone!

So... I did it!
I made the T-Bone Steak Cake!
See the thermometer? Its actually a fondant candle!!

I thought that putting it into the oven would add a little smile to those steak lovers! (I'll upload a pic in a while)

I added cherry compote to the bottom to resemble blood (Oh yes- I did)

Dad really loved it!

I'm already thinking of my next cake!

Love and Sprinkles!

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.
