Hibiscus Cake

This cake was made for my brother-in-law's step-mother (that's a mouth full) for her birthday. I was told that she likes the Hawaiian look....as well as I....I looooove Hibiscus flowers!

Meriah's Hobby B-day Cake

My coworker/friend of mine requested a birthday cake for her daughter, Meriah. She requested a heart cake with pompoms and ballet slippers and left the rest to me. I originally had no idea as to how I was going to create these objects but in the end I think I was able to pull it off. My favorite part about the whole cake was when I delivered it to my friend and she hugged me sooooo tight...I think she liked it. lol

My first Wedding Cake

Wow, I finally did it...a wedding cake! an old friend of mine was married yesterday and they had asked me to do the cake...I was excited at first then the closer it got to the time to deliver, the more nervous I got. I was a wreck by the time I got to the church. lol Anyway, the bride had asked for a sage bow because all of the decorations included sage bows. It was really cute (I actually think I got a few ideas for my own wedding from theirs...48 days to go by the way!! lol) Anyways, while this was fun to do, it was also a learning experience which I deffinitely use for the next time. Everyone said that they liked it...I so hope they did!

Congrats to Ryan and Laura, the happy couple!

Polka Dot Tiered Cake and decorations

One of my niece's, Gabbie, first birthday was on July 29th and the theme was polka dots, polka dots, and more polka dots.

This is my first tiered cake! I can't believe how easy it was to do, I was so nervous, though. He he. This cake's three tiers measured (from bottom up), 10"x3", 8"x3", and 6"x3". Polka dot ribbon was wrapped around the bottoms of each tier and then used as a bow topper for the top of the cake. The cake is covered in marshmellow fondant with fondant polka dots. The cake itself was Rainbow Chip Cake so when you cut it, there were more polka dots! Well kinda.

But the polka dots didn't stop there...no way. Using my wonderful Cricut, we cut out a few hundred circles and put them up all over the living room and dining room for the decorations. This is something I highly recomment for a party when funds are tight. It made such an awesome impact with minimum costs. The party was a success. Happy Birthday my little Sweet Pea!
