A New Year of Cakes and Other Stuff

After taking off a few days to enjoy Christmas and ring in a new year I’m back in the groove again, baking cakes. This year I have decided to slow down a little and not take as many orders as before. I think at 81 it’s a good time to do that. I have lots of recipes I would love to post and hopefully those that follow me would like that too.

For now here are my latest cakes for 2018.

Barnes Baby Shower Cake

11 x 15 classic yellow butter cake, vanilla buttercream. Mommy & baby whale butter cream transfer. White chocolate sea shells lightly brushed with edible pearl dust.

Baby Shower Animal Theme

These cupcakes were so much fun to do but the animals were a little time  consuming.  My first time doing animals like these. Cupcake flavors , yellow butter & chocolate with vanilla buttercream frosting. The animals are fondant.

Fondant Baby Shoes and Pink Booties

Baby Shower Cake

11 x 15  yellow butter cake with vanilla butter cream. The baby shoes are fondant and the pink booties I piped with butter cream.

Cupcakes for Gender Reveal Party

Chocolate and yellow butter cupcakes with vanilla butter cream. Fondant hearts.

Baby Shower

    I was given several design ideas for this baby shower cake by my customer but we decided on this one. The design items were made from “candy clay”. A very nice medium to work with and taste great. Cake flavor, chocolate cake with vanilla butter cream frosting.
