This cake is a celebration of the upcoming marriage of my daughter Heather and soon to be son-in-law Steven. They are getting married at the beach in about 2 months, so the shower and cake were decorated along these lines. The cake is a marbled vanilla and strawberry cake on top and a marbled chocolate and strawberry cake on the bottom. Buttercream icing rounds it out along with a star fish and sea shells all made of modeling chocolate. My sisters did a great job on the shower and I appreciate them for their love and hard work and also thanks to all who came and celebrated with us.
We have been decorating cakes for a while now. We're still new at it but love the practice! We'll post cakes as we finish them, so check back often!

Rubba Dub Dub, Ducky in the Tub
This cake was inspired by a little boy who was very specific about what he wanted. A little ducky in the bath tub was the very thing to put a smile on his face. This is a vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The black tile is made from modeling chocolate, the duck is formed out of rice krispy treats and covered in yellow modeling chocolate, the tub is also formed out of rice krispy treats and covered in fondant, the robe and rug are also made from fondant. Happy Birthday Fisher and Lake!

You are a blessing
A friend of mine needed a cake for a friend of hers. What other way to say how you appreciate someone than to tell them what a blessing they are to your life. This is a yellow cake with buttercream icing and serves 25. Hope you're a blessing to someone today!
Carson's 2nd Birthday
My grandson Carson will be 2, August 2nd, but we celebrated it on July 23rd in GA. He loves school buses and the color yellow and also the song, "The wheels on the bus go round and round". He loves any kind of ball and kicking any kind of ball. He loves jumping and swinging and the one thing he does not possess is fear. He reminds me so much of Cory and moments when he reminds me of Kimberly. This cake is a yellow bus with yellow cake and yellow buttercream icing and serves about 40. Had such a great time in GA with the family.
