TIERS OF JOY

A Sunday Wedding

2010-07-25T17:38:00.001-07:00

An outdoor wedding reception near the end of July is not one of the most ideal situations for a cake baker to deal with. However, the weather ended up being great and, after much anticipation, the heat and humidity was actually not bad. So here it is: a white wedding cake with rasberry filling and cream cheese icing. I really love the design the bride came up with for the sides, nice, simple and elegant.

Laptop Computer

2010-02-13T14:49:00.000-08:00

My first laptop computer. Well the first one make of cake anyway. I decided to make my friends 30th Birthday special by making him a laptop similar to his macbook. I thought it would only be fun to rename this laptop as the Matt Book since his name is Matt. I am pretty sure he was suprised and loved it. The computer screen had a print out of a computer code make by another friend custom to be a Happy 30th Birthday message to Matt.

Princess Hadley

2009-10-27T18:09:00.000-07:00

Here was a fun cake to do for a little princess on her Birthday. What a fun and exciting cake to make for little Hadley on her special day. Needless to say the cake was a hit with all her princess friends.

A cupcake Wedding

2009-10-10T15:00:00.000-07:00

OK so this was a wedding I just did with 170 cupcakes. The bride wanted to make it look like a real cake and for the most part I feel it did. This was quite the experience to say the least but worth the effort because they came out great.

Tennis anyone

2009-07-22T10:50:00.001-07:00

Here is a tennis racquet which I made for a client just last week. This client did not need a lot of cake for her party so the head of the racquet is the only part which is cake. The handle and arms are made of Styrofoam and covered in fondant. It was a huge hit at the party.

Sponge Bob

2009-07-13T16:01:00.000-07:00

A third Birthday is not right without a sponge bob square pants cake. Little Aubree loved this cake and everyone loved to eat it.

A Mother's Day Cake

2009-06-24T15:36:00.001-07:00

OK so I am a little late on posting this one but it was a Mother's Day cake I did for a client having a party for her mother and mother-in-law. They thought it was fabulous and loved the taste.

OK so I am a little behind on my posts but I have been busy in the kitchen with my cake creations. So no more wait here is a Elmo cake I created for a 2nd Birthday with was fun.

In Honor of the Masters

2009-04-14T13:42:00.001-07:00

OK, so this was not really for the Masters but making it fell on the day after so why not. This cake was actually made for a couple moving away and they love golf. I had lots of fun making this cake since it looks like the ball is going to crush everything. I wish I could take credit for making the little people because they are cute, however, the lady who ordered this cake made the people.

Theater

2009-03-08T11:07:00.000-07:00

So this is my latest and greatest cake. I made this cake for a client celebrating their sons 28th birthday. I love how it turned out. This is the first time I have used fondant for a clients cake and I was happy to find Satin Ice which I must say tastes great. Since I have found a fondant that actually tastes great I hope to be more creative in my cakes.

This is the total display I made. The clapboard is make from a wood board and the tickets are made of fondant. The client was super excited.

A Valentines Treat

2009-02-15T18:38:00.001-08:00

Here is a little Valentine Cake I made for a co-worker. I got the idea from Bakerella's blog which I thought was very cleaver. Everything pictured is make of cake. The little chocolates were most delicious. I highly recommend this cake to anyone. Although on Bakerella's site she said to make the sides of the box about .25" higher than the rest of the cake. I recommend a little more than that because my sides were not tall enough. You be the judge though.

Christmas Presents

2009-01-08T13:58:00.000-08:00

This Christmas I decided to make a few people on my list a special treat for the Holidays. This first picture is a chocolate house I made for my mother-in-law because she loves chocolate. She loved it and I think thought it was too cool to eat.

This next picture is a chocolate boot with a tree and candy cane in it which was give to many co-workers. I am hoping they all enjoyed them.

O' Christmas Tree

2008-12-09T18:15:00.000-08:00

Well the Christmas season has started and my customers are challenging me to new levels. This customer wanted to dazzle his employees with something different at his Christmas party. So what could be more dazzling than a decorated Christmas tree that you can eat. Needless to say the Christmas tree was a hit.

Thanksgiving Day Treat

2008-12-09T18:04:00.000-08:00

This dessert was made for a customer of mine whom wanted to impress his dinner guests at Thanksgiving. This desert is called a Pumpkin Ginger Trifle. The guests where very impressed with the dessert and loved the taste along with its light feeling. For those that want to know what is in this trifle the bottom layer is ginger bread, the next level is a pumpkin pie filling, and the white layer is cool whip.

A Fortieth Wedding Cake

2008-11-16T17:24:00.000-08:00

Here is a cake I made this past weekend for a couple celebrating their fortieth wedding anniversary. The cake was made to be a wedding cake for the couple because from what I understand they did not have a lot when they got married and they don't have any pictures to remember it either. Needless to say it was a hit. Thanks Cynthia for adding the fresh flowers.

Baby Dean

2008-10-05T14:11:00.000-07:00

This weekends cake was for a friend of mine who is having her first baby. I thought it might be fun to make a baby in a baby carriage holding a umbrella for her baby shower. The cake was a hit.

Along with the cake I thought I would make some cupcakes to make sure we had enough servings for everyone attending the shower. The cupcakes are made into little rattles.

Spiderman or Lightning McQueen

2008-09-15T14:18:00.000-07:00

These are some cupcakes I made this weekend for a friend. They were a hit at her little boys birthday party. He could not decide which character he wanted more so we just made both. These are also special cupcakes as well because they are gluten free.

Fisherman Cake

2008-09-07T17:45:00.000-07:00

This was a fun cake to create. This cake was make for my church minister whom has served at our church for 20 years. The top layer was chocolate cake and the bottom was white. What I really liked about this cake is I used an airbrush to make the icing blue. It was easy and no one was walking around with blue lips after eating it. Another fun thing about the cake is the dock on the top was made of tootsie rolls. Sand around the bottom and top layer is make from gram crackers. Needless to say it was a big hit at the party.

This is one of the two sheet cakes I made to go with the tier cake above. These are actual pictures which I had converted to eatable icing. Pretty sweet.

Barbie Cake

2008-08-26T14:45:00.000-07:00

This cake was ordered by a customer for her granddaughters birthday. The cake is a strawberry cake.

Hannah Montana Cake

2008-08-26T14:38:00.000-07:00

I made this cake for my niece Hannah whom was turning 4. This cake was a huge hit and every last piece was eaten. The cake itself was a funfetti cake to add a little fun for the kids once it was cut.

Graduation Cake

2008-08-26T13:59:00.000-07:00

This is a cake I created for my step-daughters graduation. I had a lot of fun doing this cake because in between the layers I created a small collage of picture from when she was little all the way up until her senior year. She loved it so much she didn't want to cut the cake. In case you want to know the saying on the cake it say "Do not got where the path may lead you, Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail".
