Bridal Shower Cake
I made this for my friends bridal shower. It's a lemonade cake with a lemon mousse and a vanilla buttercream. It was very good. I made the flowers out of royal icing. After course II, this was my first time doing flowers again...it was a little nerve racking, but they came out ok. The gal giving the party gave me a napkin to match the colors.

Granduation Cookie Bouquet
This matches the graduation cap cake that I made. The cookies were fun, they always are. It was so sad, when I was placing the cap cookie into a bag, I broke the tassel off. I was upset, but what can you do! This is why you always make 2, just in case I guess. Now when I buy cutters, I look at how thin the cookie will be. Live and learn. Thanks!

Baby Shower Block Cake
This was for a baby shower at work. She didn't know what she was having so I tried the best I could. It was a 10 in. devils food cake with vanilla creme buttercream with a chocolate moose filling. These are the first blocks I've tried. They were a little hard since I didnt use fondant. Everyone LOVED the cake, and didn't even notice. They looked ok. Thanks for looking.

Topsy Bridal Cake
This is my first atempt at a Topsy cake. The top layer could be a little more angled, but I thought it was super for my first try. It was soooo much fun to decorate. The flowers are made from royal icing, did them on wax paper. Royal icing decoration (first time with that-loved it) cream cheese icing with a strawberry and vanilla cake, 9 and 6 in.

Music Cookies
I made these for a friend of mine. I wanted to present these in a really different way, and this is what I came up with. I really like how it turned out. My friend told me that she put the cookies out, then they were gone. I think the presentation really helped, we eat with our eyes too.

My First Wedding Cake Con't
This is a better picture of the whole table. I'm very proud of it. I got many comments about the taste, that made me happy. I was a little worried about how'd they taste, I did the freeze thing and made them a week ahead. Cakes were very moist, it worked amazing! The couple got married in Hawaii and had the reception in there home town. Thanks for looking!

My First Wedding Cake
Well, I finially did it! My first wedding cake is done. I owe so much to this site. Thank you all for helping me. The top is lemon, middle is strawberry shortcake (my own creation), the bottom is a chocolate/banana (my own creation). The plumarias are gum paste, it was my first time with them. I has a few that cracked but I thinks it's because I didn't let them dry all the way. Around the cake a chcoolate shell candies I made. They came out cute, but nobody thought they were chocolate, so none were eaten.

Bridal Shower Cookies
I made these for a friends bridal shower. They were a huge hit! We also gave them away as prizes. My sister decorated the pots and I did the rest. I also made the medium size cookie as favors for each person. It was a lot of cookies, but a lot more fun. They were decorated with Americolor markers.

1St Event Cake-Calvery Cake
I made this cake for my dad's annual Calvery Troop dinner. It was a chocolate banana cake with a banana filling. I used chocolate buttercream, which was my first time making it and it came out wonderful! It cake was a big hit! I was very pleased with the overall cake. The taste was wonderful, if I do say so myself, and the decoration came out just like I planed. The rough ending, I just added because I wasn't quite sure how I was going to smooth that egde. I had a blast making it. Enjoy!
