Sweet 16


Happy Birthday Lauren! This was made for my best friend's younger sister for her 16th birthday. 10" bottom tier white cake covered in fondant and decorated as zebra. Top tier was 6" chocolate cake covered in fondant. Gumpaste/fondant decorations and buttercream "fringe" border. So fun!

The Wedding Cake


This cake was so, so fun to make!! It was very stressful, though. I was amazed at how much cake it took to make such a big cake. Blessings to the newlyweds, Jenni and Justin. We love you guys!

Zebra Practice


This was a small, 6" round cake that I did as a practice run for a wedding cake I'll be doing in December! The actual wedding cake will be square, but this gave the bride an idea of what it would look like. Plus what fondant tastes like. :) It was a lot of fun and I cant wait to do the wedding cake!

Happy Halloween! (a couple weeks late)











This was a small cake (6" round) I made for Jay and Oliver for Halloween. It was only the second cake I had decorated with fondant and it was so fun! I used Bekels fondant and it was lovely to use. Very smooth and easy.

I look forward to making more holiday cakes! I enjoy the thought of Oliver associating cakes with good, fun events in his life as well as the simple "just because" occasions as well. :)

Happy Birthday!




I really enjoyed making this birthday cake for one of my closest friends, Kirsten. Her birthday was at the beginning of November and I wanted to make it special. It was my first time making marshmellow fondant (MMF) and I had a lot of fun with it. I enjoy using the store-bought fondant more, I think, but its nice to be able to make my own also. The cake was a cherry chip box mix (her favorite). I love working with fondant! It takes the cake to a whole new level. I look forward to making many cakes this upcoming holiday season.
