Yellow Roses for Mama

 

 

 

 

 

When I started this cake I didn’t know how I was going to decorate it. I make so many sheet cakes it’s hard sometimes to come up with a design. Some people like sheet cakes, others not, but they are easier to serve for a crowd.  So I began by making a few yellow buttercream roses in different sizes. The design just kind of emerged after that. Not really original but I used up all the roses and my customer loved it. The cake flavor, yellow butter cake with vanilla buttercream.

 

 

Another “Joe” Cake

It’s Halloween time again, time for Joe’s Halloween birthday cake.

Each year I try to come up with a different look, so this year I used a combination of things. None are original but I just grouped them together on top and along the sides of the cake. The eye ball base was a cupcake I covered in frosting then in fondant, the hand holding it was also fondant as well as all the cut outs around the sides. Cake flavor is always the same, yellow butter cake filled with black raspberry buttercream, iced in almond buttercream.

It’s Triplet Time Again

 Each year since the triplets have been born Grandmother Glenda has ordered special cakes for their birthdays. One large one for the family to enjoy and 3 smaller ones for each of the children. This year we went with mult colored dots and a monogram. Some of their cakes from past years can be found in the birthday category.

The monograms on each of the small cakes represents their name.

                                E for Elizabeth, L for Laramie, S for Sydney

                                       HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EVERYONE  !!!!
