I made these adorable cake pops for a sixth birthday party being held at a bowling alley. The mom provided the handmade Styrofoam bowling lane along with the bowling pin cookies she made at one end. I then added the chocolate bowling ball cake pops. They are covered in teal and purple white chocolate (the birthday girl’s favorite colors) and decorated to look like bowling balls. This is a great shot of Cecila with her birthday display. She came over with her mom to help put the bowling balls in the display.

For this wedding cake the bride really wanted something traditional. She liked the idea of having pillars with the cake topper in the middle, so the top tier was decorated with a cluster of royal icing roses. Drop-strings in ivory buttercream surround the bottom two tiers with a royal icing blossom at each point. The middle tier is also decorated with cornelli lace inside each drop-string.

This cake was ordered by the same customer who also ordered the Christmas Ornament Cupcakes. She had ordered the cupcakes for a small dinner party, and they were such a hit she decided to order a larger cake, with the same ornament theme, for another party. The large 3D ornament was made from rice krispy treats formed into a ball and covered in red fondant. The design was piped on using royal icing and painted with gold luster dust. All the ornaments going around the cake had different design.

This wedding cake was for a couple who both happen to play Djembe drums. Since the wedding was in December the bride wanted the cake decorated with snowflakes as well as red bands to match the wedding colors. The two drums on top where hand made out of fondant to match the bride and grooms’ own drums.

I made these adorable cupcakes for a Christmas party. They each have a half ball of cake attached to the top of each cupcake. The cake was frosted in chocolate buttercream and then covered in a circle of fondant. Fondant ornament “hangers” were handmade, painted in gold and silver, and attached to the top of each cupcake.

I made this cake for the retirement party of a Chemistry Professor at Centenary College. I actually worked for the professor last spring so I was honored when I was asked to make a cake for her retirement party.

The cake was covered in fondant to look like the top of a chemistry lab bench. The cake is topped handmade fondant decorations to look like a test tube, notepad, pencil, periodic table, and of course a beaker filled with “blue liquid” CuCl2.

The cake was frosted in buttercream and covered with fondant “winks” placed all around. The pot on top of the cake was handmade out of fondant and has a wink mid-air. The American and British flags are made from edible images.

Yellow and pink cherry blossom are accented with small green buds and chocolate vines. A hand molded fondant bride and groom were made for the top.

A bride recently asked me to make a grooms cake for her husband to be in the shape of a log cabin. They are planning to build a log cabin together after the wedding. I carved the cake into the shape a house and then rolled out logs of fondant to build the siding.

The cake is three square offset tiers covered in chocolate fondant. A guava fondant ribbon is wrapped around each tier and bright fall fondant leaves are cascading down the cake.
