Blast Off!

This cake was so much fun to make! This was for Mr. Tanner, who was turning 6. Tanner loves rockets so we decided to go with it! I was so thrilled with this cake, it's completely covered with buttercreme icing, the only fondant on it are the wings and the flames, also the backboard (the blue sky). Tanner loved his cake and I couldn't have been happier! Happy Birthday Tanner!

Chain-Ganging


This cake needs a little explanation! A friend at church was turning 50, as you can see, but his wife didn't want anything black and your typical "Over the Hillish". This friend is on the chain gang at the local high school so we decided to go with that! I love the phrasing, thought it was pretty cute! Glad to do this cake for a good friend! Happy Birthday Gary! 

Finally!

She's finally done!! This was a smaller cake I made for my best friend Liz, she is FINALLY done with college!! Liz graduated with her Masters in Accounting back in May and of course I had to make her a cake! This was a strawberry cake (her favorite) with cream cheese icing and of course her school mascot's paw print. Congrats Liz, I'm so jealous you're done! :)

Monkeying Around



This cake was so much fun to make! I love baby stuff, so this was right up my alley. This cake was for a couple at church, their Sunday School class threw them a baby shower and asked me to make the cake! It's neat because I knew the couple when they started dating, there when they got married and now they're having a baby! This was modeled after the plates and napkins at the shower and also worked out well because the baby's nursery is a monkey theme. Welcome Baby Brayden!!
