It's Been AWHILE!!!

Well what can I say...life has been busy! I think I use that as my excuse all the time! lol. Not sure how else to explain myself. It's not that I haven't made cakes, I've made MANY!! I really need to get my butt in gear and post all of them. I am very proud of my accomplishments this summer with over ten weddings and numerous birthday and theme cakes, oh and some new adult cakes. I've learned new techniques and tried new tools. It's great to look back and reflect on where I started with cakes, not even having it in mind that I would ever create this many cakes in my life! It all started with my son's 1st birthday cake just under 2 years ago and now I have created over 100 cakes...I should count them one day! :D

I will post a few now and then when I get the chance, which hopefully will be soon, I will post the rest. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my cake creations!! :)

Some of 200 Canada Day Cupcakes made in red velvet and french vanilla for Tartan (an oil company to donate to the Canada Day Celebration up in Conklin.

The picture of this cake is unfinished!  The groom forgot the flowers and I could not make it there the next day to put on the flowers.  The flowers were suppose to be turquoise gerbera daisies, which would've looked awesome on this cake!!  But, the next day the flowers were forgotten about again and they improvised with some small white daisies out of the bride's flower bed.  They did not get a picture of the cake, so this is all I have.  A little disappointing, but whatever.  Anyways...the rubber boot and moccasin I thought were such a cute idea.  I molded these out of fondant.  The rubber boot was to symbolize the groom being from the East Coast and the moccasin to symbolize the bride being of Metis status. 

Unisex Baby Shower Cake.  The client designed the cake.  I have never had such detailed instructions before.  She was very thorough!  I love her ideas though!!

"thanks for the wonderful cake, it was yummy and everyone liked the design. Good job."

Seashell Cupcake Wedding.   Chocolate, Butter Yellow and Carrot Cupcakes with a Carrot Cutting Cake.   I absolutely love the cake topper.  It is so pretty!! :)

Not my design, but I found it on google and really loved it!  Not sure who to give credit to.  The whole cake was french vanilla and I really enjoyed making this one!

I made this Power Rangers cake the day after we got back from holidays.  To be honest, I actually forgot all about this cake and I had to really rush it.  IT was for a friend, which I am glad!  She still loved it and the birthday boy got a giggle out of it!

"Totally loved the cake!"

I LOVE Littlest Pet Shop!!  I wish they were around when I was 5!!  I made all the cupcake pics out of cardstock and dressed them up with a couple of flowers at the bottom.  A great idea for a kids birthday cake.  The kids can enjoy the cuppies and later on the family can have the cake.

"Zoey so loved her cake!!!! Thanks so much! "

My first experience with a square wedding cake.   I finally got my pans in just in time for this one.  It was a pleasure to make a cake for a friend I hadn't seen or talked to in probably 8 years.   Turns out she doesn't even live that far away either!  I had a chuckle when I saw the cake topper she picked out.  It reminds me of when we were in England together just over 10 years ago.  Fun Times...  The pedestals were a heirloom passed down from a few generations and I am glad we could fit them into the design she wanted.   I had never used pedestals before, so I was a bit iffy, but they make the cake look amazing!!

Well, thanks for being patient with me.  I will post some more later on.  Thanks!!
