Taz Monster Truck

A.J. is a country boy with a little redneck twang. I don't know if going to monster truck events qualifies you as a redneck(I doubt it), but A.J. is a big fan and what little boy isn't. I even think they're fascinating (maybe I'm a little redneck too). A.J.'s cake is vanilla with buttercream icing and serves 25. Thanks Wendy and Aaron and Happy Birthday A.J.!

Auburn Tigers


Must be an Auburn week this week, at least it has been for us. This cake is inspired by the side of a Tiger. Auburn fan or not, you've got to love the stripes on this one! They turned out so good! This is definitely one way to kick off the New Year and celebrate a 30th birthday, too.
The cake is a vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, and feeds about 35-40 people. The tiger stripes are modeling chocolate (which most of you know we love to work with), and all the writing, as well as the tiger orange, is out of buttercream. Happy birthday to Zeb from The Dessert Box, and thanks, Tasha!

Auburn Eagle



This cake is a vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, and serves about 15. The Auburn Tigers "A" and Eagle are cut out of a sheet of rolled modeling chocolate. Every detail on the eagle are actually painted by hand using frosting. Happy birthday, Kristen, and enjoy your Auburn Tigers cake!

These cute snowflake cookies are our butter cookies (3 dozen, to be exact), iced with a delicate snowflake design using royal icing. They're sure to please the taste buds, and the Christmas Spirit!
