150 made for Bar Mitzvah - 150 hands of cards, too - for Magic/Casino theme party. Hurricane delayed event for 6 weeks - of course it was after I had already baked and base glazed each one! Murphy's Law!
Made 150 of these along with 150 rabbit in top hat cookies for a Bar Mitzvah with Magic/Casino theme. Got all of them baked and first layer of glaze on, only to have party postponed because Hurricane Rita was on its way to us. Had to individually plastic-wrap back to back in bundles of two cookies, then wrap all in several sturdy boxes and tape off all the edges... party was rescheduled 6 weeks later. Luckily, I only lost a few bunnies (ears were too fragile)!
Made with love for my stepdaughter and her friend and their hundred closest friends for a "Finally Thirteen" party. No real theme for the party - I was told they just run around a lot and dance... soooooo, the music note came about. They had a DJ and luckily both of their names start with 'P', so 125 cookies later I got a hug and a big thank you and several new orders from some guests!
Another themed party popular with the little girls!
Made for a pre-school class named "The Gingerbreads" for their end-of-year splash party. The parent that ordered them wanted to make sure that they were personalized for each classmate so they wouldn't fight over which swimsuit they got!
I just chopped off the 'crotch' of the onesie and made the future big brothers their own cookies for the baby shower for their sister. They loved them. I got the idea when I remembered my step-daughter getting a pink shirt in the hospital gift shop when her little brother was born.
Fun cake done for end-of-year party. Made fondant erasers and pencil tips to add to buttercream pencils for border. Also made apple with worm poking out to add on chalkboard ledge.
Boring request so I added the ivy leaves and dusted them with a little gold luster dust... took picture when cake was straight out of freezer. Once it thawed the leaves were glistening, or so the bride said!
Made for a congratulatory gift package shipped to a client's out-of-state niece for making junior cheerleader. I was told the colors were black and gold, the name of the school, and the mascot was a knight. Recipient loved them and shared with fellow cheerleaders!
Requested to match the napkins and plates already purchased for the guest of honor... client 'found' the horse cake pan and wanted me to use it. I ended up doing a chocolate mold and added it on top of a 2 layer sheet cake.
Inspired by other great ideas on Cake Central! I saw this and couldn't wait for my own son's birthday party. When his best friend said he wanted a party at the Aquarium, I knew I had to make it! All the boys said they wished there was some 'blood' on the shark's teeth! I'll have to remember this if I try it again... boys like gross!
Beach themed party for little brother and big sister. Each had to have their own special cake, with a larger life preserver for the other guests. All the kids were fighting over a piece of the rope on the life preserver cake! Go figure!
This was the other niece's birthday cake for her moon-walk warehouse party. Added a bow to give it a more feminine touch!
Lindy's mom requested that her cake look like the invitation - I try to avoid rectangular cakes if at all possible, so I had to think about this one for a while. Decided to pipe the BC body on the cake, then dress it with fondant clothes and shoes. Turned out cuter than I thought it would. Love it when that happens!
Another favorite made for my niece - she wanted a frog since her party was at one of those moon-walk places. My other niece requested a monkey. I had fun making the little fly... all the kids were fighting over a piece of the tongue or eating the fly. Heard lots of requests for more 'frog guts and monkey brains, please'! LOL (gross!)
I don't know the first thing about guitars, as is probably very evident by this picture. I had to go from memory on other cakes I've seen. This cake needed to serve approx. 40, so I split it onto 2 cake boards to accomodate so much cake. The mom had to 'wedge' the two parts together on-site at the party, so I do not have a final picture. The birthday girl LOVED it, and the mom said it went together great!
Fish cookie with rock sugar added on top - looked like wet scales. Very glossy and pretty - kinda like tie-dye.
Each 'princess' who attended DD birthday party was allowed to choose a gown and tiara of her choice to add to the crystal slippers already in their goodie bags. These were fun to make with a 3 year old providing a lot of direction with which colors and icing tips to use! LOL
Made for a little girl turning two - mom didn't really have a theme for the party so she thought 'girlie' was the way to go!
Made for niece's birthday - she wanted it to match her invitation, but I used colors that she likes. Made sugar cookie favors to match.
Sugar Cookies made for niece's birthday party. SO much fun to do with all those colors. Love the way they freshen up my photo album for potential customers to view.
