Lavender & Lace

This has to be one of my favorites to date -- which I usually say about every wedding cake I make! The cake was white Russian with tiramisu filling-- Yum! It was covered with tinted lavender colored white chocolate, ribbon was dark chocolate and the applique was white chocolate. The lace work was created with royal icing. Pearl dragees were also added to mimic some of the detail work that the bride had on her wedding dress. Love, love the color combination!!

Marra

This cake was for a 40th birthday party for a woman who travels a great deal and is also a producer for stage productions. So theater had to be the theme of the cake. Most of the free standing design elements were created out of fondant and painted with luster dust. The birthday girl no longer lives in the area but wanted to take the cake back with her so we created it out of a cake dummy (Styrofoam rounds) covered with fondant. I take that as a hugh compliment! : ) Pink champagne cake with vanilla bean buttercream was supplied as a secondary cake for eating.

Meatball Pizza

This meatball pizza cake was created for a client who surprised her husband with a party at his favorite pizza restaurant -- Lou Malnatis'. Meatball pizza is a one of his favorite kinds so that had to be the theme for the cake. He is also a dark chocolate lover so I made the "meatballs" out of dark chocolate truffles and made them very ugly as to resemble meatballs. The crust was a combination of dark and white chocolate; the tomato sauce was tinted white chocolate; and the cheese was white chocolate painted with brown and golden yellow food coloring. The cake was dark chocolate with cookies 'n cream filling and chocolate fudge buttercream -- chocolate lover's delight!

Wonder Pets

Wonder Pets was the theme for a first birthday party for a little girl. I was given the invitation which had all three pets and I matched the design style of the graphic for the cake. All design elements were created out of white and milk chocolate.

The Saxophone

This cake was for a young man who plays the saxophone and his favorite piece to play is "The Washington Post" which is printed on rice paper under the saxophone. Gold luster dust was used to create the metallic look of the saxophone.

Jasmine

This cake was created for a little lady's fourth birthday party. The theme was "The Princess and the Frog." The cake's color scheme matched the party supplies that my client found and fell in love with. I must say, I too love the colors!

Wyatt's Ducky

This cake was for a little boy's 3rd birthday and he just loves yellow duckies right now. So I created this yellow ducky for him and added fun simple shapes for his cake. The cake was dark chocolate with cookies 'n cream filling.
