For my husband's cousin's wedding I made a 3 layer cake, 16 matching sheet cakes and 40 Cupcakes! It turned out to be a 102 Degree day, the venue's kitchen was the size of a half bathroom, had no A/C and the caterers had to also cook in it. But by the grace of wedding magic, the cake held up and it was a great late afternoon wedding.
This was a simple wedding cake I made for a friend over the summer. It was my first, it went off without a hitch and it was wonderful to have someone trust me with such a big part of their day. It was also GLUTEN - FREE! The bride has Celiac's Disease.
When a friend's baby girl turned one she requested a Tinkerbell cake... in the "Tinkerbell Green". I covered the cake with marshmallow fondant so the kids may actually enjoy it also. In the back is the traditional "smash cake", covered in buttercream...
This year it was fun to take a whole year's experience and do another basket cake for our family Easter celebration... I loved the colors on this cake. I'm thinking I'll keep up the tradition in years to come.
This anniversary cake employs the same "brush embroidery" technique as the Mother's Day cake (2009). The slight sparkle comes from an edible silver dust that was brushed on. It was maroon and ivory to match the party colors.
