Toy Story



I made this cake for my own birthday boy! He is just obsessed with Toy Story. Everything is "Buzz, Buzz"! I wish we had taken a picture of the inside because I colored the 6 layers of cake 3 different colors. Green, blue and purple to match buzz's colors. This was a white cake with chocolate ganache between the layers.
Jack just loved the cake which made it all worth it. He just kept staring at it and pointing as if to let us know just who's cake it was.

Thomas the Tank Engine


One of my very good friends threw a party for her son who just LOVES Thomas and friends. This cake was SO much fun to make. It was fun to sculpt Thomas's face and see him come to life.
My favorite part was when they came to pick up the cake Christopher saw the cake and right away said "Whoa!! Look at the ...." then proceeded to name the different parts of the train. Obviously I am not as smart as Christopher because I couldn't even name the parts of the train to you and I made the cake! :)
I am glad he liked it!!

Baby Shower


A friend of mine was having her first baby and I wanted to help her celebrate so I made this cake for her baby shower. They are big Brigham Young University fans so I added a personal touch and made the "Y" in boy to match their school logo. I had a lot of fun making the clothes line on this cake. I love all the little details.

Knock out Cake



I wanted to make a special cake for a friend of mine on her birthday so I asked her husband what shape I should make it. He came up with the fun idea of making it a boxing glove. Amy is one of the sweetest people but man she's a tough chick! It was a bit of a tricky shape to get right but I think it was a "hit"! :)

Halloween Birthday



This cake was requested as a Halloween birthday cake. The layers of this cake were orange, green and purple. And when they cut into it the kids all had such a big surprise! They were so excited to see the cake was different colors.

Two Princesses Cake



A Grandpa and Grandma ordered this cake for their 2 grand daughters who were visiting. This princess cake needed to accommodate both girls and their age so we opted for something general enough to meet those needs but fun enough to make them both feel like it was their own special cake. Each name occupies its own side of the cake so that each girl has her "own" cake. I loved the way this one turned out.
