Bridal Shower cakes

We've been getting a lot of orders for bridal shower cakes recently. I guess it's wedding season :] 
There seems to be a trend of people having simple color schemes then having these brightly colored, very fun elaborate napkins, and then they want us to coordinate the cake with the napkin. I really love the way these cakes turn out so i hope this is a trend that will stick. So here's a couple that I've done recently. 


This first one was actually a friend of a previous client, and was at her birthday party. Her friend had done the whole matching napkin cake thing and she really liked it so asked if we could do the same for her. I posted that cake previously, you can see it here it's the 3rd cake down the flower one.


This cake is iced with buttercream with fondant flowers, and buttercream piping.


This one was for a wedding shower as well, The napkin was this peacock with the "feathers" swirling. They got cupcakes too, with the peacock feathers on them too, i forgot to take a picture of those though. I liked the colors of this one a lot.

The cake is iced with vanilla icing, and the decorations are made of fondant. 


I'll try to have another post tomorow :]

How much is that doggy in the window

Just a quick post today, i made this cute little guy the other day out of fondant. The client's brought in a picture of their daughters favorite stuffed animal, they said she wont go anywhere without him. So why not get an edible version of him on her birthday cake. It was a really cute little doggy.



Hope everyone had a lovely cinco de mayo if  you were celebrating! I will try to post some more thing asap.

old and new

Today I'm posting pictures of a couple of cakes i did recently, as well as a couple of old ones i stumbled upon. 

This is one of my favorites, i love that they wanted a fashion sketch of the dress. The dress is made of fondant, then drawn on with food coloring. 



This was for a 8 year old birthday he wanted a dragon similar to the ones used in parades. Then some gemstones on top and a few around the sides. All the decorations are made from fondant, and he wraps around the cake. 


Now here's some cakes from a little while ago. 
                              
              
This one is the second tinkerbell cake I've done. Here is the first one i did.




Last but not least a hello kitty cake

Spring Time

Today I'm posting more photos of cakes i have done recently at work. Now none of these cakes were actually intended for spring, i just thought they all had a very spring time essence to them.




The first one is a character from a children's show called yo gabba gabba, and the characters called a foofa. Pretty silly i know, i really don't understand kids shows these days :p



This next cake was for a bridal shower, i really love this one its so simple yet so cute. I'm a huge fan of people not putting an inscription on a cake. Sometimes it just ruins it, also I love the bee (you can't tell in the picture but he's smiling :]



This last cake was for a 25th anniversary, its a red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. Its decorated with fondant cherry blossoms. The inscription is in Russian so I'm not sure what it says. This cake was also interesting because they didn't want the top tier in the center, so it is lined up with the back of the bottom tier. 




Thats all for now, hope everyone can start enjoying some spring time weather soon!

How to succeed in business without really trying

So previously i had mentioned that i had some pretty exciting news, well this was it. This past weekend i made a cake for the one and only DANIEL RADCLIFFE. 
 I still can't really believe that Daniel Radcliffe ate my cake ;]
 It was for opening night of his new Broadway show How to succeed in business without really trying. Needless to say i was over the moon. 


As usual all decorations are made of fondant 


Here's a photo of the cake with my inspirations for the design 


That's all for now :]]]] hope you all enjoy, and i hope he did as well

Birthday cakes


More cake photos (all decorations are made from fondant)


This first one is groucho marks juggling, they were having their party at some place where they teach you juggling and other circus tricks. 



This is eloise from books such as eloise at the plaza 


 I loved this cake i thought it was such a cute idea having a box of crayons on the cake, then it had rainbow sprinkles on the sides 

This was kind of a strange cake but i liked it, it was for a man who was turning 40. He's a big fan of the song I'm still here, so he wanted that written on the cake. I suppose its fitting for a 40th bday as well. 

And last but certainly not least my favorite cake ever, monty python and the holy grail. I wish more people would order cool cakes like this one.

Cakes Cakes Cakes

So again sorry for  not posting more often, just been busy busy busy. So today i figured I'd just post some pics of cakes I've done at work. 




This was a cake i did that was designed after a display wedding cake that Jess made. The little girl liked that cake and wanted a similar version done on a small cake. All the decorations are made from fondant. I'm really glad the people went with chocolate frosting, i think it works really well with the design. 

I absolutely loved this cake, if you don't know who that is it's general grievous from star wars episode III revenge of the sith. I'm not actually a huge fan of general grievous but it was a nice change from the typical star wars characters people want. (all deco are fondant)

The client brought in a napkin that they were using for their party, and they had coordinated all their decor with, and wanted a cake to match as well. It was a really lovely design, and i loved the colors. All decorations are made from fondant. 




Here's a cake for a pretty cool 3 year old, not only does his birthday cake have a guitar on it, but it's cookies and cream! yummmm (all deco are fondant)

Well that's all for today, i have lots more pictures stored up, but I'm trying to ration them so i can have more posts. So hopefully i will be posting soon, as well as having some pretty exciting news, fingers crossed.
