Star Wars, The Clone Wars Birthday Cake & More...


 12 in round, 2 layer cake with buttercream icing -- My son wanted Star Wars, The Clone Wars again this year for his birthday. : ) He decided he wanted some of his favorite characters on top this year to do things a little differently. No problem! I made white cupcakes with light saber toppers, red, green and blue (light saber colored) cake pops and also 'light saber' pretzels to go along with the cake. He couldn't have been happier!

Christmas Cupcakes -- December 10, 2011




I made these cupcakes for my sister Chris to take over to the Radiation department at UT Hospital. It was her last radiation treatment and I know she was so, so relieved to be done with it all. She wanted to do something special for the people there that had been so kind to her. There were Chocolate peanut butter cupcakes, Vanilla cupcakes with candy canes and Andes Mint cupcakes (chocolate mint flavored cake with mint buttercream icing, chocolate drizzle and an Andes mint on top).

A Dora the Explorer Birthday Cake -- December 15, 2011


These Dora the Explorer cakes were made for a sweet girl turning 3 years old! She wanted a Dora doll cake and also a regular Dora cake. Very cute and sweet! Both cakes were vanilla cake with buttercream icing. Dora's hair was done in dark chocolate icing to get the just the right color.

A Littlest Pet Shop Birthday Cake-- November 20, 2011


My daughter picked Littlest Pet Shop for her birthday theme this year and it made for a cute cake! We went big as we expected a lot of party guests and wanted to be able to feed them all. This is a three tier cake with a 12 inch bottom 2 layer cake, a 9 inch middle 2 layer cake and a 6 inch top 2 layer cake. Vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream icing. Stripes and dots were tinted buttercream icing. I also made Birthday Cake Pops with vanilla cake and vanilla icing, dipped into candy coating with sprinkles on top! Add in ice cream, fruit and cool whip and lots of colorful marshmallows and you have a very sweet birthday party! Happy 6th Birthday Rachel!!

A Princess Birthday Cake -- November 13, 2011




A Princess birthday cake for a sweet little princess who turned 2 today! Because this cake had to travel by car I didn't put all the decorations on - There are also 4 princesses that are supposed to go in front of the castle and on the second tier. So sweet! Cake is a 2 tier 8 in 2 layer and 6 in 2 layer vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream icing. Cake tattoos by Ace of Cakes added - they were the perfect colors to match the castle and princesses. :) Happy 2nd Birthday Abby!!! I hope you had a wonderful day!
