The First Cake I Ever Made

This was the very first cake I ever made. I made it for a friend's 30th birthday and I had no idea at the time just how far this cake thing would take me.

I think I've come a long ways from then. :)

Scarecrow Spring Cake

A Scarecrow watching over his garden, protecting it from the birds.

Everything was made with fondant, including the Scarecrow and the Sunflowers.

The cake was chocolate ganache covered.

Spring Time Cupcakes

These were for a young girl's birthday. She wanted a spring theme so I created butterflies and flowers and snails for her. The cupcakes were chocolate with mint chocolate chip buttcream.

Cat in the Garden Cake

Here kitty, kitty. Made this cake for a retirement. Everything was made with fondant.

I wanted to make this cake for awhile, so when I found a client who wanted to commission me to make a cake for her daughter's birthday in the garden theme, I couldn't pass up the chance.

I sketched out the cake and then set to work creating the kite from sugarpaste and the mushrooms from fondant.

I loved this movie as a little girl and making this cake prompted me to watch it again.

The cake was made at Christmas time so the client wanted a cake flavor that would match the holiday festivities, so I made a white cake with peppermint bark and white chocolate frosting.
