Peony Flower

I wish I would have gotten a better picture of this cake. It was so beautiful! I just love the peony flower on top.

Football Birthday Cake

This cake was a lot of fun to make. It was for my nephew's birthday which was a football themed party. He loved that the helmet was his very own cake!

Cake!!

About a month and a half ago my husband and I were walking through Joann Fabrics and I saw a flyer for a cake decorating class.  I thought that it looked like it would be a lot of fun, but instead of taking one of their classes I decided to just go buy a few books and teach myself.  Since then I have made five cakes and am completely in love with it!  I can't wait to do more!  Here are the cakes I've made.
My 5th Cake

I made this cake for my niece McKinna's baptism. It was so much fun to make and I'm so glad I was able to make it for her on her special day!

My 4th Cake

I made this Neiman Marcus shopping bag cake and shoes for my sister inlaw Erin's birthday.  I had so much fun making the shoes!

My 3rd Cake

The bow on this cake got a little smashed but it still looked really cute.  This was a birthday cake I did last minute for a girl in my ward.  She was very surprised and loved it!

My 2nd Cake

This cake was for our Grandma Grace's birthday. It was a princess party theme.  The crown was made out of gumpaste.  And in between each layer of white butter cake were fresh raspberries with raspberry buttercream.  YUMMM!!! It was so good!!

My 1st Cake

This was my first cake. It was more of a practice run for our Grandma's cake since I had never used fondant before.  My favorite part is the fondant ruffle on the bottom. It made it look so cute!

Hamburgers & Fries Anyone?

When I saw these I knew I had to make them. They turned out super cute and were so much fun to make. The buns are cupcakes cut in half and the patties are brownies. A little frosting for the ketchup, mustard, & lettuce. And some sugar cookie fries. Yummy!

Cake Pops!

I made these cake pops for a friend of mine. She was having a "gender revealing party" to announce the gender of their baby to be. They turned out so cute and tasted amazing!
