Hair Salon Cupcakes

   Lemon cupcakes with lemon buttercream.

   I’m glad I only had a dozen of these to make. Making all the little things ( hand molded from fondant) to go on top was a little crazy but I do like how they turned out and my friend loved them too.

Showers of Wishes for a Baby Boy

It’s always fun doing shower cakes especially for a baby. I loved the colors the customer chose for this one. The simple designs were cut from fondant. The flavor was butter cake with vanilla butter cream frosting.

 

Pumpkins & more pumpkins

 This cake was for a baby shower (a boy) and the request was for fall decorations. I scored the cake in 2″ squares and placed a pumpkins in each square.

The little pumpkins are fondant, the cake, yellow butter with butter cream frosting.

A Princess Birthday Cake

Princess cakes are so much fun, you can make them as “girly” as you like with lots of frills. This one, a 10″ classic yellow butter cake with vanilla butter cream.  I made  bright pink roses in varing shades, wrapped the base of the cake in pink ribbon to match the roses and piped dots on the sides with touches of lavender here and there. The wand was handmade from fondant, the star I cut with a cookie cutter and was brushed with silver dust, the handle rolled and brushed with gold dust, a small silver bow added to the handle. The Tiara was purchased.

  Note: The Mother was so pleased when she saw the cake saying “that’s exactly what I wanted, a very girly cake” and of course that made ME a very happy cake decorator.
