An Iowa "onesie" was included along with a spit towel that reads "I drool black and gold!" Cake was vanilla with cookies 'n cream buttercream filling. The cake was covered with modeling chocolate as well as the other "toys."

Joshua's Icing Smiles Cake

This cake was created for a special little boy named Joshua who turned 10. He wanted a "Big Time Rush" themed cake. We went with a strong colors and the logo from the show to decorate the cake. We also put spotlights on a 3d number 10 for fun! We are part of the non-profit organization of Icing Smiles (http://icingsmiles.org). I am proud to say I can be apart of such an incredible giving organization. Please check them out! : D

Irish Ed

This cake was for a surprise 70th birthday party for a gentleman named Ed. He is a true lover of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Chicago Cubs, Chicago Blackhawks, and Chicago Bears. He also is an avid collector of bowling balls. The challange was to incorporate all his passions into one cake. I think we did it. We made each team's logo badge and placed them around the bottom tier, and dedicated the top teir to Notre Dame. We airburshed the top with metallic gold and placed bowling balls all around. Little Ed was decked out in his Irish gear. Tremendous fun to create this cake!

Spencer is 60!

This cake was for a surprise 60th Birthday impromptu gathering. The honoree is a big fan of our Red Velvet cake so that was the chosen flavor. We went with a whimsical style for the tiers and added bright colors and patterns. We also created a mini Rick along with a few of favorite things. Everything is edible.

Baby Luv

We designed this cake to coordinate with the baby shower invitation. Colors and baby matched to the tee! All elements were edible and created out of modeling chocolate.
