This was for my son's promotion from Pre-k to Kinder. As you can see the theme of their party was princesses and princes. This is my official first stacked cake using dowel rods...they are great and easy to use. Vanilla cake made from scratch, buttercream. I made the foam decorations myself and saved a bunch. The cake was my gift for the students.
Last minute request for my husband's friend. He called me at work at 4 pm to see if I could whip something up for the next morning. Of course I got out of work to buy ingredients and bake at night. I think it came out pretty good for what it was. 5 inch brandy cake made from scratch. Buttercream and plastic rings for decorations.
Cut from a 6-inch cake. Ordered by a neighbor for a friend of hers whom just loves butterflies. Yellow cake and buttercream icing.
Made for my husband's cousin. She came to visit, saw my cake portfolio and ordered this cake for her daughter in the US (I'm in Puerto Rico). She froze the cake and took it with her 2 days later.
Butter cake, almond syrup and buttercream icing. Eggs are plastic and basket handle is colored foam.
This was my nephew's 2nd birthday cake. I put a lot of heart into it. Everyone loved it. Made from scratch vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The tree was made using a PVC pipe with a wood top attached to it and covered in brown royal icing.
These were for my son's pre-k class. The teacher was amazed and the kids loved them, especially my son who said: "Wow mom, you're cool!" I just love him. Bunnies were made in royal icing. Jelly beans played the egg part of easter.
Done for my son's Pre-K classroom. Last minute request from his teacher the night before the party, that is why they are all in pink
Yet another practice chocolate cake... I just put the baby booties and rattle on top to see how they would look.
This was just a practice cake. I actually put the GC Airlines on the side as a suggestion from my husband. They call me "Gisy" which is pronounced just as you would the "GC". Colors are some leftovers I found on the fridge. All buttercream, sponge chocolate cake.
This was made for my 4-year-old son's Pre-K xmas party. The children and teachers loved it. It was simple for the teacher to just give out a cupcake to each child and go on without having to cut, serve and clean messes afterward.
Last minute cake for our street party. The person bringing the dessert got sick so this was the dessert. I actually had 2 hours to make and decorate the cake. Everyone was happy. Vanilla cake made from scratch with buttercream icing.
This cake was made for my best friend's birthday. She adores briliant colors so she loved it. there were two cakes an 8-in (brandy) and a 5-in (chocolate) cake. The one in the picture is the 5-in and this is the only picture of the cake I got to take. the bigger cake had the candles spelling "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" on it but it was exactly the same decoration as the small one.
This was made for my boss' daughter, she turned 10. I made the sides of the cake to look like ruffles on a dress with the little flowers to give it a little color. I used a foam decoration because it was a last minute cake and had no time to do a BCT or use rice paper.
This is the cake I made for my son's 4th birthday this past Saturday. Mostly everything in the picture was home-made. I made the cake from scratch, I made the foam decorations, the cake stand, the mirrored base was cut and prepared at home, and the frosting. The only thing store bought were the toys used, the garland arround the cakes and the black frosting which I don't bother to make anymore. Needless to say, my son loved it.
This cake was made for a co-worker's mom. I was not so happy with the roses but, they are buttercream and I don't expect them to stay too firm in Puerto Rico, it is too hot here (90+ degrees)
This was made for my son's Pre-K fall celebration, 2005. This is actually the first cake I make using a specially shaped pan. It was easy but making so many little stars sure makes you tired!
This was made for my neighbor's boyfriend, he turned 25 and is a big Simpson's fan...Vanilla cake with brandy syrup and Butter flavored Crisco Frosting. Rice paper was used to trace the Homer.
My boss' wife called me at work at noon on a Thursday to see if I could have this cake ready by Friday morning...I get out of work at 5pm. Anyway, it was an 8 inch round cake so I agreed. Instead of making a frosting power ranger I decided to make the foam cake topper and simplify my life. The kid loved it. It is a vanilla cake with buttercream frosting, home made red.
This was made last Saturday for my best friend's nephew. He was turning 9 and he loves batman. Drawing made from birthday plate design.
This was just a practice cake. I just wanted to try out the carving business. 6-inch cake cut in half, placed upward and then carved to look like cars. Buttercream icing (leftovers). Wheels are oreo cookies, gummies were used for signal and stop lights and fruit twists for the bumpers
Simple cinammon cake...I just love the pan.
This was made for my boss' birthday...His wife actually asked for the Mr. Incredible picture on top. Traced on rice paper and then decorated with a #16 Tip for small stars. Frosting and cake are amaretto flavored.
My friends at work played a joke on a mechanic who was taking too long on making a tool work so they told him this project would take until it was time for him to collect his Social Security Check...He was not happy!
This is just a practice cake. I made it to try out my new standing bear cake pan.
Please note the green sandals next to the towel on the floor...I just loved them.
