My nephew Cooper is obsessed with lawn mowers right now...well, any lawn work equipment, but lawn mowers especially. This is the cake I made him for his 3rd birthday. He loved it and wanted to "push it."
This cake was for two adorable three year old's. They love Max and Ruby. I had actually never even heard of Max and Ruby until I did this cake. I think the girls loved it and they had a blast at their party!
This cake was for my nephew's birthday. He LOVES Harry! I wanted the cake to look like the book, so I downloaded a picture of the book cover and went from there. This was my first attempt at drawing a real person. As you can see I'm not that good at it, but my nephew still knew it was Harry :)
This is a cake I did for a friend. Her daughter's school asked her to bring a birthday cake for the teacher. She loves chocolate so they wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Chocolate icing has to be one of the hardest to work with. It shows EVERYTHING, so getting it smooth was virtually impossible, but I think it turned out pretty good.
This is one 1/2 sheet cake I created for a baby shower. This cake serves 24-48 people and would cost $70 because of all the different colors. Up to five colors would be $60.
I created this cake for my friend Erica's lingerie shower and bachelorette party. This was such a fun cake to decorate. This cake is carved from a 1/4 sheet cake and would serve 12-20 people. This would cost $35.
Here are some examples of character cakes or cakes that I have carved. These cakes are the most fun and get the most oohs and ahhs. The number of servings depend on the cake you choose. The Winnie the Pooh cake would serve approx. 10-15 people and would cost $25. The Wiggles guitar cake would also serve 10-15 people, but because it is hand carved it would cost $35. The treasure chest would serve 25-30 people because it is three layers. It would cost $40. The pirate ship is also three layers, but would serve 20-25 people. It would cost $45.
Here are some examples of 1/4 sheet cakes I have done. I loved doing each one and each one presented new and exciting challenges. These cakes will feed 12-24 people and the price depends on the number of colors you want. Up to three colors would be $30. Up to five colors would be $40.
I got this idea from the internet and put my own spin on it. Of course now that I know what I'm doing I can see all the flaws in it, but the mom-to-be thought the cake was great. This was my first experience with basket weave. Not too difficult, but very time consuming. This cake would feed about 15-20 and would cost $45.
This is the first real cake I ever tried decorating. It was my nephew Colton's second birthday and he LOVED Elmo! I had always wanted to get into cake decorating and now I had a good reason to. At this point I hadn't had any formal training...except for Google, that is. Everyone loved the cake and thought I had done a great job. From then on I was hooked. This cake would feed about 10-15 people and would cost $30.
