Cake Balls
My husband recently discovered he REALLY likes cake balls after I made a trial batch. He told me I could stop making cakes and only make cake balls from now on. This is my second time making them.....for him to bring into work. I used hazelnut creamer and Wilton candy melts. Accented with vanilla almond bark.

I made this on Xmas day for dessert. It is a carrot cake from scratch with cream cheese frosting. The frosting was a bit hard for me to work with and I couldn't really get it smooth. The frosting was either too soft or too firm if I refrigerated it. The cake tasted good anyway.

I was told at 12 noon to be at a surprise birthday party at 7pm. They are friends of mine and I knew there would be other cakes there so I made this a small one (6", 5"). My first time making MMF flowers, although I didn't have much time. The guests preffered the taste of my cake over the store bought one. I used DH and the cake mix extender recipe.

One of my first cakes I made when I started this new hobby. I made this for my daughter's "half-birthday". She turned 2½. We have a tradition in our house to celebrate half-birthdays (no presents). We make a big stink about the person turning another half year older....the kids love the attention.
