Toy Story - Icing Smiles Cake
Bottom tier is a 10" fresh strawberry, top tier is a 6", double barrel, vanilla-almond, both filled and frosted with vanilla-almond buttercream. All cake decorations are fondant and the characters are hand modeled from Saracino Modeling Paste. This was the third year I've had the honor of making Cody's birthday cake.

Celebration Of Life
I made this cake for my brother-in-law’s Celebration of Life on Saturday. He was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive bile duct cancer and passed away after 3 short months at the young age of 59. He was a huge Disney fan along with my family and we spent many family vacations at Disneyland over the last 35 years so we used Disney as our theme. My husband helped me cut out the fondant wording and castle from a picture I found on Pinterest with my Circuit Cake. The cake itself is a vanilla cake with a strawberry buttercream filling, fresh sliced strawberries and Pastry Pride frosting. As most of us know, Pastry Pride and fondant don’t “get along” so I added a good amount of Tylose to the fondant so that the pieces would really stiffen as they dried and I added the pieces to the top of the cake only a couple of hours before serving. I also made some Mickey cookies, mini cherry pies, banana cupcakes and mini brownies to add to the dessert table.
