BBQ Beach Bash Cake
Monday, May 31st, 2010We celebrated Memorial Day with some great friends, and I was in charge of dessert.
My favorite thing to be in charge of, really.
I decided to play around with a beach theme, and created a delicious peach brandy cake with vanilla custard and fresh blueberry filling.
And then the fun began. Check out these sweet teddy grahams sunbathers and swimmers.
We have some itty bitty divers in itty bitty wetsuits…
Just splashing around…
And don’t forget Speedo Bear. He’s my favorite.
A yummy way to celebrate.
And probably one of my favorites to make.
A Birthday Carnival
Sunday, May 2nd, 2010Part of the fun of baking is getting to make the cakes for family birthdays.
It’s even more exciting when it’s for our son.
A’s second birthday was a carnival theme, complete with balloons, games and mini corn dogs.
I made a little 6″ carnival tent cake.
And lots and lots of cute vanilla and chocolate cupcakes to share.
Oh, and don’t forget a bunch of “2″ frosted cookies. My personal favorite!
Happy birthday to our little man! He had a wonderful day!
Valentine’s Day Candy Box Cake
Sunday, February 14th, 2010For your sweetheart.
A delicious dark chocolate cake in the shape of a candy box. Everything is edible (except the cupcake papers)
Complete with mini-cupcakes made to look like truffles & chocolates.
Roses not included.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
A Shower for Baby F
Saturday, December 12th, 2009I was so delighted to be invited to our dear friend K’s baby shower. She and her husband D will be expecting Baby F in just a few short months, and we are over the moon for them.
I was also thrilled to be called upon to make her shower cake. Two tiers, one chocolate, one vanilla, studded with butterdream polka dots and a replica of the fishies from Baby F’s super adorable bedding.
Congratulations, again, to two wonderful friends!
