Toy Story Cake

















The cutest little boy Angel, wanted a Toy Story cake for his birthday! The characters are all made from fondant and the cake was layers of vanilla and vanilla chocolate chip with Champagne buttercream. He was so thrilled to see his cake that he stood right next to it and I was able to snap the photo. Those are the moments that make me want to keep doing this!

Gluten Free at the Wedding

A local caterer contacted me regarding a wedding that she was going to be doing. The daughter of the bride was gluten free and needed a small gluten free cake to place on the table along side the regular wedding cake. The cake is a 6" gluten free chocolate cake with chocolate ganach filling and champagne buttercream. The photo is of the cake with a copy of the wedding invitation.

Susan and Shane's Wedding


A good friend of mine decided to have a surprise wedding and asked me to do her cake. She sent me a photo of her dress purchased in Olvera Street in Los Angeles. It was a beautiful Mexican style dress with roses and lace. I used the photo of the dress to design the cake, matching the color of the roses and doing a more modern style lace. I found ribbon that matched to colors of the roses to add to the bottom of the base. The cake was vanilla chocolate chip with champagne buttercream.

Wedding Cake!























I was contacted by an old friend, she needed a cake for her sister's small backyard wedding. She sent a couple photos of cakes that she liked of a bride and groom sitting on suitcases and a photo of her sister and the groom to be. I had fun getting the bride's hair to look the photo of the bride! The cake was chocolate with a raspberry filling and champagne frosting. The blue straps and details on the cake tied into the bridal party. Congrats to the nuptials!
