This was a dummy cake I created for a competition at the start of 2013. Sorry it's not a great photo; the lighting in the hall was weird so I had to lighten the pic and that made it look grainy. Thanks for looking!
...well, at least that's what it felt like when I was in the midst of applying them to the cake! Classic vanilla bean with a Kahlua infused buttercream filling and finish for this wedding. Thanks for looking!
Chocolate cake brushed with coffee liqueur and Kahlua, and filled with cream cheese buttercream. Thanks for looking! :-)
My client came to our consultation with one, yes ONE, computer printed image in her hand. This is the cake she wanted. And I was very happy to oblige! Made small changes to make it hers. Set on an 8" high porcelain cake pedestal. Sorry for the not-so-professional photos...used my camera phone Tfl!
Gumpaste blossoms dusted with pink centers, and dark chocolate fondant branches.
Dark Red Velvet torted and finished wtih vanilla buttercream. Greenery, bow and berries all vanilla fondant, brushed with pearl dust for a soft sheen. Thanks for looking!
This cake was so much fun to make! Each tier was a different flavor, the finish was buttercream, with little fondant pumpkins and stripes. Bought a cool figurine set to add the characters. Thanks for looking!
Really cool theme for a baby shower...LUAU! And this BIG Flip Flop carved cake matches the invitations. Lemon cake with raspberry preserve filling, vanilla bc finish. The stripes and straps are all fondant in neat, vibrant colors! Tfl!
Clean and Simple wedding cake for an intimately sized wedding. Dark chocolate cake with rasp bc filling, vanilla bc finish. The fondant black daisies add just enough contrast. Tfl!
I used Satin Ice Dk Choc. fondant for this cake, and used The Mat to roll it out with for the very first time!! (Love that thing!!!) WASC with chocolate bc filling. Piped the design in BC. Fondant bands for borders. The Autumn accents are simply something I placed in the photo for style elements. When the cake gets delivered to the wedding, however, it will have a single big red bloom which is currently at the reception site. Thanks for looking!
Received this wedding order only two weeks ago, for a wedding today. The woman was a liason for the bride who spoke almost no English, so this friend ordered her wedding cake. I wasn't given much info to go with; just the # of servings, Almond cake with raspberry filling and colors for the flowers. So I piped curling bc vines and brushed in some bc leaves to kind of follow the Summer flowers they'd wanted. A little anxious about this order, as I never met the couple nor had any idea what they truly wanted it to look like, but it all turned out fine and the woman who ordered it loved it too. Oh and I apologize for the photos...taken with my phone and I don't think I'll get any pro shots as I don't even know who the photographer was! Oh well...Thanks for looking!
The bride was so passionate about having this shape of cake, how could I say no? :-) It's Midnight Chocolate cake w/ choc bc fill, and lemon cake with rasp preserve fill. Finish is a white raspberry bc. Scrollwork resembles the beading on the bride's gown. This was my first Octo-cake, and it took me about 10 hours from pouring the batter to cleaning the final pan. About an hour of that was some serious measuring of lines and angles and cutting the square tiers I baked. So for those of you who have kids...tell them that YES they should pay attention in math class because even cake work requires math!!! Lol! Thanks for looking!
Today's wedding cake was a pleasure to create, with it's beautiful yellow hued buttercream and bold blk & wht Damask ribbon. Bottom and middle tiers were vanilla bean and chocolate respectively, with raspberry buttercream fill. The top tier was vanilla bean with a Grand Marnier buttercream fill. Today's bride was the photographer for a wedding I did last year, and when she tasted that cake last summer, she booked me a month later. I love that she loved it that much! Tfl!
Second one I've done...this one is actually for an Engagement Party but design is also great for a Bridal Shower. Chocolate cake with raspberry bc filling. Vanilla fondant finish. Black satin ribbon on box and lid. Thanks for stopping by!
Crafted these cupcake toppers for an order for this weekend. Four birthdays, each person getting a batch of their fave flavor cuppies with toppers to reflect interests/personalities. Lipstick, eye shadow pot/sponge and nail polish bottle are full or 3/4 size, others are minis. Making these was like letting my inner child out to play with Playdough! :-) ! Tfl!
Dark chocolate cake with van bc filling, and van fondant finish. Simple, clean design with fondant bands and bc pearls for border. Periwinkle blooms cascade down front; inspired by the floral design on bride's dress. Tfl!
Lemon cake with strawberry preserve and vanilla bc filling, bc finish. A Sangria colored satin ribbon encircled the tiers and a single black fabric flower with crystal center (one of the brooches that the bridesmaids were wearing on their dresses) finished the look. Tfl!
Such a unique cake today! The couple's invitations showed a country road shaded by tree canopies and the whole photo was in hues of red & burgundy. She wanted their wedding cake to reflect that image. So we cascaded a dark red fondant path down the front and added random tree silhouettes handcut from fondant and gave them brushstrokes of burgundy color for depth. Pink, purple and red rock candy crumbles added a pop of color. Definitely one of the more unique designs I've been asked to come up with! :-) Sorry the photo isn't super sharp... Tfl!
This was a 10"/8"/6" lemon wedding cake with vanilla bc, and vanilla fondant. Bride and Groom requested less formally pleated look with the drapery; more casual and randomly placed. Tfl!
Designed for a diehard Sox fan as a surprise for his birthday party! Red Velvet inside, vanilla fondant finish. Letters hand cut from red fondant (oh, those funky Bo-Sox letters with all the little points! Argh! Lol!). Wht choc baseballs made by using a plastic measuring spoon as a mold. Baseball cap formed from styrofoam with a cardboard brim and covered with dk blue fondant. This was so much fun to create!! Thanks for looking!
A Bridal Shower cake ordered by the very thoughtful sister of one of our May 2011 brides. The ring box is a 10" vanilla cake, rasp bc filling, covered in red fondant, has a quilted ivory fondant cushion accented with fondant pearls and graced by a large crystal "diamond" ring. White gum paste roses. The lid is a fondant covered foam square with a fondant bow. Hard to see but white trim/bow is brushed with white luster dust. Tfl!
Today's wedding cake was inspired by a photograph that the couple brought to me of a modeling chocolate cake by Richard Festen. I changed the brown to black, used fondant on buttercream instead of all modeling chocolate, and added lavender roses for the bride's color scheme. In the additional photo, you'll see that the cake looked quite different before the roses were added. Same cake, a little more edgy. Tfl!
Swirls of aubergine, purple and pale gold dusted with pearl dust on this vanilla bc finish. Bride chose bold color palette to match her reception. Thanks for looking!
