Vow Renewal

When friends held a surprise vow renewal (yes, he was confident!), I made this as a surprise for the bride of 32 years. Her husband wanted something to go with the lavendar and purple flowers since that was her favorite color scheme. They had never had a wedding cake for the first wedding (elopement). Very romantic and fun for all of us!

Green And Yellow With Pacifier

The mother to be wanted something simple. We used to joke about how, when she was a toddler, we didn't think she'd ever give up her "plug". She loved it when she saw the pacifier tumbling down the side of the cake. The cake was chocolate chocolate chip, orange buttercream filling, IMBC frosting, chocolate clay booties and pacifier.

Oval Wedding Cake

Made this when friends decided to renew their vows. The cake tiers each had a layers of chocolate pound cake alternated with vanilla nutmeg poundcake; peach preserves and dark chocolate ganache between layers; Bakery Shop Icing on sides and edges with freshly made peach curd on top of each layer. It was fun to decorate with all of the fresh fruit and the fruit tasted really good with the cake.

Baby Blocks And Pitter Patter Petit Fours

Shower for a baby boy; Winnie the Pooh placed on top for the baby's room theme. Initials for the mother, father, family name, but the baby is not yet named. The grandmother said she couldn't wait for the pitter patter of grandbaby's feet, hence the petit fours walking around the cake.
