Spongebob with Crabby Patties

We had another request for that loveable yellow sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea and loves his crabby patties, Spongebob!  These crabby patties were complete with bun, lettuce, cheese, and of course crabby patty.  The cake was a chocolate cake covered with buttercream and the cupcakes were decorated with delicious buttercream frosting.  The whole cupcake was completely edible and adorable.

"Gnome" Cake Quite Like This One

I just finished my very first gnome cake.  Yes that's right I said gnome cake.  I recently had a very interesting request for a gnome birthday cake and I have to admit I was a little nervous at first.  I wasn't sure how I was going to pull this idea together, but after all is said and done I am very happy with the results.  Jodi and Jeff, hope you all enjoyed the cake!  

12 inch round cake, iced with buttercream frosting, covered in marshmallow fondant, completely edible

The little Gnome hats were an inspiration from Gnomeo & Juliet

This was a cake for an adult so we added a few adult beverages  for this gnome to enjoy.

All the flowers were handmade and added to give the affect of a garden.  
The Gnome was hand made, sculpted with cereal treats and covered with fondant.

Wildly Fun (Lingerie Cake)

I had a recent request from a good friend to make as she called it a "boob cake".  After a fun conversation and some research on the internet we came to the conclusion to do a leopard print bra cake.  This cake would be great for many different occasions such as a bachelorette party, lingerie party, bachelor party, bridal shower, and even a celebration for a breast cancer survivor.  It was a ton of fun to make this cake and hope all the ladies loved it!

Oh Boy! cont.

I was honored to throw a baby shower for my dear friend Catey.  She is expecting her second child and this time she is having a BOY!  The theme was green and brown per the mamma to be's request.  We are all so excited to welcome this bundle of joy! Here are some pictures of her cake and banner.

Pregnant Belly!

What a great idea for a baby shower...a pregnant belly cake!  This cake is sure to awe and amaze guests and most importantly the mommy to be.  The "dress" is made of fondant and inspired by the fact that it's summer.





Oh Boy!

A dear friend of mine is having her second child, which so happens to be a boy! I am honored to be able to throw her a baby shower. Here are the invitations I made.

Graduation Cake

The excitement of graduation is upon many families this time of year. Pride beams from every parent as they watch their children grow and achieve goals.  Congratulations to all the graduates of 2011!   




Mickey Mouse

Meeska, mooska, Mickey Mouse!  A Disney themed birthday party calls for a very special cake.

Tinkerbell Cake

A little faith, trust, and pixie dust helped make this cake happen.  Okay well maybe not the pixie dust.  

Castle Cake

Every little girl dreams of being a princess, living in a beautiful castle in a kingdom far, far away.  Well this little girl is a princess in her parents' eyes and they wanted her to have that beautiful castle for her birthday.

Batman AND Sonic

When you are 5 years old you know what you like and what you don't like.  Well this little birthday boy knew he wanted to have a Batman and Sonic the Hedgehog cake.  He was not about to settle for just one or the other so we had to come up with a way to combine both of his beloved characters.

Dinosaurs!!!

Little boys love dinosaurs!  They are mysterious creatures that fill the imaginations of children so of course we have tried to capture that in requests for birthday cakes.

This particular birthday boy requested specifically to have a blue T-Rex.

"Tangled" in FUN

Little girls all dream of being a princess. And Disney has introduced all of us to a new princess, Rapunzel. My daughter has fallen in love with this movie and so when I was asked to do invitations for a Tangled themed birthday party I was excited!

Minnie Mouse

This custom party was inspired by an adorable mouse, Minnie Mouse!  The birthday girl specifically asked for a Minnie birthday party after returning from her trip from Disneyland.  So the creative wheels began to turn.  First came the adorable invitations.  They were 5 1/2 inches and handcrafted.  We wanted to have a coordinating birthday banner but the facility where the party was held prohibits hanging items in the party room.  Boo!  But we were able to customize a special cake that did coordinate with the theme and invitations.  It HAD to be pink per the request of the birthday girl.  Too cute!

The invitations were approximately 5 1/2 inches.


Custom Cake!  White cake (colored pink), butter cream frosting, and marshmallow fondant) Yum!

Dr. Seuss Party

Turning One is so much fun!  Especially if when it is themed around the beloved Dr. Seuss characters.  This party was for a little girl's first birthday!  The invitations and birthday banner were handcrafted to match the theme of the the party.  The cake was custom made as well, One Fish Two Fish book.  Outside was decorated with balloons and characters from different Dr. Seuss stories.  Turquoise and red colored balloons, candy, table cloths, and even birthday outfits and hair ribbons tied everything together.  A fabulous party to celebrate turning one!


The invitation opened like a book and included the rhyming phrases.

We also made a highchair banner that matched the birthday banner.

Cowgirl Party!

This party was a Cowgirl Themed Party inspired by Jessie and Woody from Toy Story.  The birthday banner and invitations were handmade and coordinated with matching scrapbook paper.  The cake was a carousel cake with Jessie and Woody as decorative keepsakes for the birthday girl.  The party also had wanted posters for each of the birthday girl's friends that attended the party and one for her sister. What a fun theme for a little girl's party!
