Pantry Shower for Heather & Skylar

Over looked this picture of Heather and Skylar's shower cake, in part because the pics were  not made on my camera and so I forgot about this one until I borrowed Heather's camera and viola, there it was. This is just a vanilla cake with buttercream icing and serves 40. Congrats to my daughter and her husband Skylar, he's a wonderful addition to our family and we love them both.

Clayton's Wedding

Clayton was very specific on how he wanted his cake to look and ta-da! He wanted red velvet cake with cream cheese icing, houndstooth all around,except for the top layer, "A" and elephant on top. You talk about nervous...whew! It's almost like an M&M cake where each one goes on one at a time. Oh wait, there was an M&M cake and it was for Tabitha, Clayton's  first cousin. I think there's a conspiracy amongst that crew to pick out cakes with tiny details.(lol) When I mentioned that, the comment was made,'Oh we just like your company'. Ain't that sweet or what. We love ya'll too!! This cakes' decorations are all made from modeling chocolate and there are 351 houndstooth pieces on this cake. The elephant is a keepsake from his mom, Jane. Serves about 172. The wedding was gorgeous and very proud for both Clayton and Brittany. Congratulations!!!

Princess Kendall

Kendall is 4!!!! Well, on the 24th she will be but we celebrated the 15th and Misty, Shawn, Carly, and Katie did an awesome job with the decorations. Misty gives Pinterest the credit though for the ideas. But Misty it's one thing to see the idea and quite another to follow through. Ya'll did good! This of course is a cake with many princesses present. Can you guess who they are? This is a vanilla cake with buttercream icing, covered with fluff. The bow, sea shells, lily, and crown are made from our modeling chocolate. Kendall also had Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, and Snow White show up and they told stories, painted nails, did make-up and also their hair, They got the royal treatment. This serves about 72. Happy Birthday Kendall!!! We love you so, so much! Also 40 Princess Crown butter cookies.

Circus in Berry

 

This is a strawberry cake with buttercream icing. Hayden's first birthday and Caitlin wanted it to be very special of course and I love the colors. Covered with fluff, this three tiered cake serves about 82. The very top is left over fluff and modeling chocolate covered. Happy Birthday Hayden!

Princess for a Day!

This is the cake that I didn't make, well, except for the chocolate cake on top. I actually bought it...you may ask why? Cause I forgot about this one until the day of the party. I cried because I was gonna be the one person that MESSED up a little girls celebration and I couldn't bear it. So I asked them to give me an hour or hour and a half and they did very graciously. Off I went to the grocery store, then purchased the disney princesses to decorate with and back home I went. I happened to have two 6 inch chocolate cakes already baked and so I added one to the top and iced it, trimmed it and called for them to pick up her cake. They were so good to me and I really appreciate it, you can imagine how bad I felt. Happy Birthday Lori!!! Thanks Ginny, Ginger, Kevin and Lexi!

Colin is 1-Carson is 3

Three birthday celebrations in Georgia in one weekend, and it was awesome. Kimberly and Cory decided to have a combo party for Colin and Carson since they were both born in August. What better way to celebrate than with a baseball theme. If there ever was a dedicated fan for the Atlanta Braves it's Carson. He's just 3 but he can tell you about the team players and sit with his daddy and watch them play every day of the week if they played that often. And just wait until Carson starts teaching his little brother how to play and who's who on the the Braves roster. For Carson's 3rd birthday and Colin's 1st birthday, we made 75 servings of dark chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing. The jersey. home plate, and baseball are made from our fluff and the grass with buttercream icing.

Colin's smash cake is in keeping with the theme of baseball and he dove right into it. He wasn't as interested in eating it by himself as he was sharing it with their two dogs Chase and Haley. So cute! He has the most lusious lips, and they both have beautiful blue eyes! Happy Birthday Colin and Carson, we love you!!!! Great job Kimberly, we had a great time.



Evan is 1

Evan, Zach and Becca's little fella and our 8th grandchild, celebrated his 1st birthday in Georgia, with a pool party. Everything was decorated so cute! This cake is about 65 servings of vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The bottom tier is covered with multi-colored stripes and border made from fluff. The #1 and anchor on top are made from modeling chocolate and the small cake is Evan's smash cake and boy did he tear into it. I didn't get a pic of him but I will have one later when I get one from Becca. He was so cute. Never have I seen a littlin' tear into a cake and not care about the mess. He didn't just tear into it, he devoured it. Zach had to catch his head turned and sneak it away from him. Needless to say he's a big fan of our cakes! Happy Birthday Evan, we love you so much!

Clark Reception Cake

Heather and Skylar's reception cake was just what the bride ordered, nothing fancy for a country themed party. 100 servings of vanilla cake with buttercream icing and 50 servings of dark chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing.

Aidyn was at Memaw's house the day before his party and so she had a private celebration with him and what little boy doesn't like tractors. And I believe he got a John Deere tractor with trailor for his birthday. Happy Birthday Aidyn! Serves about 9 people.

A Day at the Beach

Brooke is 9! Happy Birthday!!! She knew exactly what she wanted which is what we like. She wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and as much decorations as possible made from modeling chocolate. WOWEE!!! Bet she had a time going to sleep after eating all that chocolate. And she planned only to share the cake, not the decorations. With her name etched in the sand, aka modeling chocolate or I should say peanut butter modeling chocolate, her towels, flops, beach ball, kite, umbrella, palm tree and 12 chocolate sea shells around the sides, gave her plenty of chocolate to eat on for days cause it never ruins. This cake serves 25. Neglected to get a pic of the sea shells.

'One Direction'

"One Direction" hmmm...guess we're to old to know the latest teen heart throbs but this one was brought to our attention awhile back. This is a dark chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing and serves about 25. Hope they made your day Kate and Happy Birthday!

This Is The Life

Celebrating 72 years of living is really something to celebrate. His favorite chair is his recliner with his remote and red solo 'spit' cup on a side table. Relaxing is very important when you put in a hard days work on the farm. This kinda work will not wait on anyone, it has to be tended to daily. And usually from sun-up to sunset. This is a vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The recliner is krispie treats covered with modeling chocolate as well as the T.V. The table, remote, and cup are modeling chocolate and the rug is buttercream icing. Happy Birthday Roy! Heather, you did a terrific job!!! So proud of you! Serves about 40.
