Fire Fighters Wedding 6-3-05
This cake almost didn't get finished! The FD got called to a 3 story fire the evening I finished baking the cakes. We fought the fire from 7pm to 3am! The next day after getting some rest I decorated it. Then we FD had another fire. The next day was the wedding. During the wedding there was a storm & the electricity went out. Thank God for generators!! That night we had an EMS call. The hard part was catching up on my rest!!! It didn't turn out as nice as I wanted but then they never do.. do they~ Thanks!

Fire Fighter Groom Cake
Butter Pecan Rum Cake~ I cheated & used Duncan Hines chocolate cream cheese icing~ The fire fighters & the hearts are color flow~ Of course all the border & fire is BC~ If you notice I put the Bride & Groom's Fire Dept #'s on the helments. That was a big hit at the wedding! It was yummy too!!

~Our Hero Lowell~
This cake is for a very special 6 year old boy name Lowell~ He called 911 & stayed on the phone with them when his 90 year old Granma was having a heartattack. This saved his Granma's life! So our FD threw him a Hero's Party! He lives in Arkansas so we had to wait to throw this party for him when he came back to visit his granma. He came this weekend! The local newpaper was there to do an article on him. It will be in the paper on Tues. What an angel he is!!

Wedding Cake~
Yellow Sour Cream Cake/ BCI The flowers & ribbon on the cake were provided by the bride. All I did was put it together for her. She didn't want any border or decorations. Just the ribbon & flowers she'd picked out. I wasn't happy with the icing because it wouldn't crust. It was supposed to be smoother..

My Easter Cake
This was from pg 66 of the Wilton 05 year book. I saw it & I loved it. I didn't have the petal pan so I used a round 14" pan & cut it into a flower. The basket handles are make of fondant, the icing is Cali4dawn's recipe. I just used a chocolate bunny instead of molding it myself (Didn't have time). I added coconut & peep bunnies to the bottom. Let me know what ya'll think!

Survivor Cake
I love to tell this story.... This is the first cake I charged someone for!!! It was for the old man who lives next door to us. He's 80 something & had a heartattack back in Nov 04. He was in a coma for 6 weeks & was not expected to live! He pulled through w/ the help of God & his heart dr. The cake was made for his dr & the nurses for Valentine's day~ He wanted them to know that he's a SURVIVOR!!
