Birthday Cake

Nothing like a snowy February to make you long for spring! For this 90th birthday party I was asked to 'think spring'. So I baked a white sheet cake with raspberry filling and 3 dozen chocolate cupcakes with yellow buttercream frosting sprinkled with fondant flowers.

My 30th Birthday

For my 30th birthday I created a 6" round chocolate cake with ivory buttercream frosting. I made multi-colored five petal flowers and used a large purple mum to anchor the design.

Holiday Cupcakes

These snowflake and holly cupcakes were made for a company sponsored holiday sale/craft fair. I took some handcrafted items as well as seven cookie varieties and these two cupcake styles.

Boy Oh Boy

Boy Oh Boy, Its a Boy! Blue and brown were the order of the day for this group of 48 baby shower cupcakes. Half chocolate and half white they are topped with four different decorations including polka dots, fondant flowers, candy melt rubber duckies and 'Boy' fondant medallions.






Daisy Wedding

For this Parker, Colorado, wedding I constructed a 4-tier cake with two chocolate swirl layers and 2 white layers. I added ivory buttercream frosting topped with a gradation of polka-dots. The bride needed to serve close to 300 so I baked 12 dozen cupcakes and topped each with a fondant daisy. At the reception site I added fresh flowers to the tiered cake and arranged the cupcakes on two towers. Congratulations Eric and Kristin!
