Wicked Sweet Cake!

This cake was a challenge but I loved doing it. This was for a 40th birthday obviously. The birthday girl loves the play, Wicked so of course we had do put the play's logo on the cake. The picture was assembled out of fondant cut out shapes. You can see that the regular picture has no definition but on the cake, I had to create the lines and depths for the hair, their hats, robes, etc. Thanks Cara for the challenge. By the way, it was a dark chocolate cake with dark chocolate mousse and vanilla buttercream.

Some Fun Birthday Cakes

Here is a quick post showing a fun birthday cake I have did recently. The Tinkerbell themed cake was for my sweet neice, Mia's, first birthday. The little cake next to it was for her to devour. That one was done in just buttercream to make it easier to eat. We did that with my son too and it was way fun.

Inspiration Lounge Grand Opening

I know it's been a while since I last posted. A few weeks ago, the Inspiration Lounge had their grand opening. It was an awesome night full of amazing vendors. These are some pics of my cake and minis taken by Kym of Ventola Photography. She is an amazing photographer and was kind enough to let me borrow her adorable models for some great pictures. Check out her website and blog at ventolaphotography.com

ABC AZ

So I got an invite last week to a potluck dinner for the Association of Bridal Consultants. I was really excited to participate because there would be a lot of great people to meet. I talked to a lot of great planners, photographers, photo booth vendors, etc. My favorite part was talking to all the great cake "ladies." They gave such great advice and their goodies were sooo good. These are pics of my spread. New cakes! Professional pics coming soon, hopefully on a new website!

Grandpa's Birthday

My hubby's grandpa just turned...yep you guessed it. 90!!!!!We had a fun birthday party for him. The food table was decorated in red, white, and blue, to celbrate his service in the military and his patriotism. He loved every minute of it. Top layer was carrot with cream cheese frosting and the bottom was a white cake with strawberry filling.

Michelle and Neil

I met Michelle when I was doing my student teaching. She got married recently and I was asked to do her cake. I was so excited. Michelle is such a nice person and I was more than happy to help her out. The cake was done in ivory and white with royal icing "lace" and buttons going up the back to imitate her gorgeous dress. The top was red velvet and the bottom was white with a simple buttercream filling.
