Again I am making a gun cake for a young boy. For this one, instead of a copy of and AK47 I copied a picture of a Nerf gun and just changed the colors.

Kendra's mom has been thinking about a guitar cake for over a year, and this year the order was made fairly last minute so we didn't have a lot of time. We decided to go with a picture of a traditional style guitar instead of cutting out the shape this time.

This royal cake was for a little man's 1st birthday.
Originally my weekend was overbooked and I had to turn this order down. Then I had a cancellation, and fortunately they still wanted me to do this order.
I love to have a new cake experience, and I was so glad this one turned out so well!

A love of many things

My friend likes to leave her cakes up to me to decide how to decorate. So she gave me a few criteria and told me to go with it.
Tim loves the color red, electric guitars, music, longboarding, and the ocean.
This scene is the end result, and from what I heard after the party, he loved it!

Old Man 30th Birthday

My cake client wanted to make sure to refer to the fact that her husband believes that 30 is soooo old.
30 is not old in my books, but that's coming from someone older than thirty..... let's just leave it at that.

Google Search birthdays

For my first cake of 2012 I was asked to make the Google home page.
Apparently this guy absolutely cannot live without Google. And to top it off, his nephew refers to him as Butts, hence the search bar with an odd birthday message.

Christmas Cake 2011

For my family's dinner at Christmas I made this. I have never made collars for a cake before and the 3 Kings design was a colorflow design much more detailed than ones I have done before.
I would like to try the collars idea again. It was certainly a learning process and I think I can improve on it the next time I do one.

This was my last cake order for 2011. It was to be a quick simple ladybug cake, but when I started looking at pictures online, I found one like this and I knew I just had to give it a try.
I really love how cute she looks.

Here is my second attempt at a gender reveal cake. This time I dyed the cake batter to the secret color before baking. Then iced it and covered it in fondant.
When the expectant couple cut into the cake to serve it, everyone got to see what they were having. (The cake is blue inside)

One of my best customers always orders cake for his friends kids and other people that he know. This time around the cake was for his own 2 year old son, so of course we went all out on the design.
The little trucks are made using krispie treats covered with icing and fondant, and the 'dirt' is a mixture of brown sugar and oreo baking crumbs.

Spiderman

This design for Spiderman was one that I had picked out long ago, and finally had a chance to use. I think he looks like he really means business. He's got that "Don't mess with me" look about him.

I got to experiment a little when making this cake. She asked for Hazelnut Chocolate Italian buttercream icing.
I had never made this before. Italian buttercream is very buttery and not very sweet. So the addition of chocolate and hazelnut was delicious!
