Hunting Camo

This cake was a bit trickier.  All I had to go on was that the little boy liked hunting and camouflage.

My Daughter's Wedding Cake

My daughter isn't a bridezilla in the least, so when she first asked me to make her wedding cake, well, I felt honored.  Then reality set in and I knew how much work it would involve and how busy we'd be that week.  Yet, she insisted I make her wedding cake.  I tried several different ways to get out of it, but could not.  Here you will see the result of the wedding cake and the groom's cake, which I ended up making also.


Step One:
Lots of blue icing!

Step Two:
Stacking 4 layers!  Of course, she likes chocolate and Aaron likes white cake, so I made their top layer half and half.

Step Three:

Getting the icing smooth!

Step Four:

Resulting in a beautiful cake for my sweet daughter and her future hubby!

Wedding & Wedding Showers

This cake was a surprise to make.  Literally!  I was asked on Thursday if I could make a wedding cake for Sunday.  It was an impromptu wedding at our little church for a couple that had attended a few times and wanted to quickly tie-the-knot.  I said, SURE, as I'm usually game for just about anything.  Without much time to prepare, I think it turned out rather well!

This one is a wedding shower cake.

Niece and nephew's wedding cake - my first ever! - Jan. '10 - I think I've improved a lot since then.

Funny story - wedding cake for my ex when he remarried.  LOL  Totally

by accident, but I misspelled the word "friendship."....I think we all had 

a chuckle.

Baby Showers Cakes for Girls

This customer didn't have a plan.  They just needed a baby shower cake for a girl.  So, this pattern I pulled from another cake I saw on the internet.  I wish I had kept the link to give credit, but maybe it will be okay since I am not claiming originality on this one.

Is it a Deer or a John Deere?

A friend wanted a small birthday cake for her buddy - decorated in John Deere.  Lucky for me, Wal-Mart carried some cute toys that worked quite well for a topper.

Baby Shower for a Boy

Baby shower cake with matching cookies!  I used the 

napkin they supplied to decorate the cake.

Baby shower cakes can be fun if you have an idea and a creative plan.  This person wanted me to copy the invitation.  Boy, does that make things easier!!    How cute is this cake with the scraggly grass and hair on the critters?
