Birthday Balloons

More fun with new templates. Who wouldn’t love some balloons for their birthday?

Some of you may know that I do taekwondo with my two daughters. We enjoy the time together, working out and having fun. Today students in our taekwondo center tested for their black belts. I was asked to make a special birthday cake for one of the masters of the center. His birthday will beContinue reading “Special Birthday”

Purple Purse

My daughter turned 6 recently and ordered up a purple purse cake. Her birthday cake of choice is chocolate. She wanted peanut butter icing but only if it could be purple. So I went to work. Tinting peanut butter icing is easier than I thought it would be. I used chocolate icing for the writing.Continue reading “Purple Purse”

While it worked with my peanut butter chocolate marble cake, it didn’t quite turn out with my heavy chocolate cake (which is my son’s favorite). So I had toContinue reading “Low Rider”

This is a 1/4 sheet cake (any flavor-this one was butter cake) with vanilla icing tinted blue. The cloud is vanilla icing without the tint. Colorful MContinue reading “St. Patrick’s Day”

Stacking Strawberries

Ok, so they aren’t really strawberries but it is strawberry cake. When I asked my daughter what kind of cake she wanted for her birthday this year, she replied, “Strawberry, of course. Oh and can you make the cake look like a strawberry?” I said that I would try. So here we are with twoContinue reading “Stacking Strawberries”

MEOW!

This Cat and Mouse were such fun to make. The customer wanted the cake to be chocolate with cream cheese icing. She also requested that the icing be tinted to gray and decorate it with tabby-like markings. Oh, and don’t forget the green eyes! The little mouse in the corner is a white cupcake withContinue reading “MEOW!”
