A Cake for A Culinary Team

With the year 2009 coming to a close (today is New Years Eve) I thought I would post the last cake I made for the year 2009.

This was made in appreciation for all the hard work of the Pinehurst Country Clubs culinary team. Flavors were chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream frosting. The roses were air-dried buttercream brushed with gold petal dust, other items were molded from fondant.

Thanks to all who have viewed my cakes this year. I look farward to making many more in 2010. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Christmas Cakes for 09

My December got off to a busy start. I just finished my “special order cakes”, all 30 of them. This is my 4th year doing cakes for this customer. Some are decorated the same as last year but a few have new ideas. Since they were going to a lot of different people it was ok to repeat the designs. All the 9×13 sheet cakes were the same flavor, classic butter cake with vanilla buttercream frosting. Here are just a few pictures out of the 30.
