Extra Batter Cake!
I have a group of people always willing to take anything extra I bake. I called my friend & said I was making one for her and were there any events coming up for her family members. She said "we don't need an occasion to have cake". I said "well Happy Wednesday!" Pre-made protea flower.

Dennise & Steven's Wedding Cake
The bride loved purple! I was using pearlized cake lace mix & was having the worse problems with it not coming out nice. After about 4 hours or my friend & I trying to make it, I was going to mix a batch of white when I discovered I had premade purple that I didn't remember buying and voila! Cake lace can sometimes be a problem & the pearlized ones tend to get brittle so you can't make them ahead, that I know of. I did make another pattern thinking it was maybe the mold so I wrapped it in parchment & Press N Seal wrap. I'll check it down the road to see if it kept its flexability. The bottom lace looked almost black though but a beautiful color in the tub. Go figure...

Lisa's Birthday Cake
I made this quickie cake for a get together with an old friend living far away. We got together to meet her "new" sister who lives in our area. Be prepared if signing up for one of those DNA sites. This was a happy surprise for 2 sisters together, after over 50 years. I thought it's about time they celebrate a birthday together and they agreed.

Jim's Birthday Cake
I didn't realize that it was one of our dinner guests birthday until the day of. I made this for a boating friend. Love the mold but not this cake in particular. I wanted to try it. Baked in the AM, chilled, then started 2pm filling, chilling and decorating. The mold is about 4.25 inches so I stretched it to 5". They weren't expecting a cake but happy & surprised when I came out singing. Cake came so high because it was Neopolitan style which I highly recommend! Chocolate with chocolate filling, then white cake, strawberry filling (a can of Comstock with strawberrys cut in half) then strawberry cake. Yuuummmm

Virginia's 60Th Birthday Cake
Last year I was talking to Virginia about the unicorn cake being on my bucket list but no one wanted one. She said "I love unicorns! You can make one for my 60th birthday" and here it is. She had forgotten about it when I called her about her birthday so it was a surprise. Especially since she thought she was getting it next week since I was "busy" today and today, her daughter threw her a surprise party! I had a great time and now that's off my cake bucket list!

Marge's 60Th Birthday Cake
A cake made for friend's 60th birthday party. I used the soft silver Cake Lace which I recommend baking longer than it says. I think I must have finally figured out to bake it 30 mins at 170F, added more of the Cake Lace & then baked another 10-15 minutes. Topper purchased cheap. :) I used the Satin Ice purple & lavender.
