Anahi's Birthday

This was a circus themed birthday, but all for a girl turning 5, so what better colors than pink and purple! (And I love her name...so pretty!) The mom wanted a couple clowns and a couple circus animals to pull it all together and it turned out great! (Hopefully you can see the close-ups ok). The cake was red velvet with cream cheese filling, french vanilla with raspberry filling, and raspberry swirl with raspberry filling.

Camera Catastrophy

Well...my camera quit on me. Needless to say, the next few posts show that because they are mostly taken from my phone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I was trying to wait as long as possible to collect pics from the brides, etc. once they got pictures back from their photographers. So if the quality is bad, you know why, and I'm sorry!

Sheri

The bride went with a smaller cake because it was a second wedding. She couldn't be a more deserving person, she was awesome! She found a cake with a brooch on it that she wanted, but in the end couldn't find a brooch that she liked! So I ended up creating this "mock brooch" to put on the fondant ribbon. The cake was red velvet with cream cheese filling, and cream cheese chocolate with chocolate ganche filling.

Saven's Birthday

Saven had an underwater birthday, so I made the frosting kind of "wavy" looking and topped it with a shell with a pearl inside! Each tier had one layer of strawberry cake and one layer of french vanilla cake with strawberry filling.

Kaylee's birthday!

This might actually be one of my favorite cakes of all time! (I know, that's a little crazy...but I seriously loved how it turned out!) Kylee is in love with this really great artist named Kilsook (Kim Haller) and she was getting her favorite scetch for her birthday. So her family ordered this cake and had me re-create the girl from the picture to put on it. I am so proud with how she turned out! The picture/girl is the one behind the cake, and I definately think she was represented well. The cake was delicious too, cream cheese chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and raspberries for filling, covered in creamcheese frosting and fondant. (I also have become a huge fan of the artist, thanx to doing this cake!)

"who ya gonna call?"....hopefully someone who can make a better Slimer cake!

I pretty much struggled with this cake! They liked it, I however, was very disappointed. It turned out ok, because her husband, Jon, made an AWESOME backdrop to put the cake on, and with all the characters you could actually tell what the cake was supposed to be in the end! Ha ha! It was a lemon cake with rasperry filling.

Jovonna

(This was one of the first cakes I did where I realized there was something wrong with my camera! Sorry, and I am working on getting a better pic). I love how she chose to put the ribbon right around the middle of the tier! Such a simple thing really pulled together the whole cake! She also had me make an extra top tier for them to save for their anniversary.

Kaitlin

Kaitlin had a vintage style going with her wedding, and found this idea for a mock lace to "drape" over the cake. It turned out really pretty, I think! The color got washed out in the room, and I tried to take pictures without the flash, but they kept turing out purple! (The color was grey). So, sorry the pic looks bad! Hopefully her photographer got some better ones!

Kim

Awesome and amazing idea! This cake was so unique and fun to do. She got the idea off a cover of a Martha Stewart magazine, very clever! They ordered the flowers online for a way better price than I could have done them for, and I just made the cake and applied the flowers. (Let me know if you want the link to the flower site). Her cake was french vanilla with lemon, cream cheese chocolate with chocolate ganache, and french vanilla with raspberry.

Wendy

This woman ordered this cake for her step son and his wife, for a family dinner. They were not able to go to the ceremony/reception, but she still wanted to do something special to help celebrate. (There was alot going on behind the scenes...let's just say she amazes me, and is such a bigger person than was called for!)

Jen's graduation!

I must admit this is the most unprofessional picture, but I had to at least get a snapshot of it! This was just a smaller version of a previous cake I did, but she still got the same look. The bottom was cream cheese chocolate with chocolate ganache filling, and the top was lemon with raspberry filling. CONGRATULATIONS! What a huge accomplishment!

Valeri

This bride came in with two very traditional styles for her cake. But, she had a desire to create something unique that maybe played off a tree idea. (She was proposed to in a certain spot where they carved their initials in the tree, and later returned for engagement pictures.) I felt it was imprtant to keep the look of a wedding cake, but try to incorporate the "tree" theme. This is what we came up with...and I LOVE IT! It turned out awesome! Her cake was all french vanilla with chocolate ganache filling, and chopped chocolate covering the buttercream. The groom's cake (batman) was cream cheese chocolate with cream cheese filling. Awesome!

Two-Face birthday cake!

We have an old family friend that has been around since my husband was little. They were best friends growing up and he always made her a confetti cake for her birthday. Well, this year her husband asked me to make her a cake....needless to say, my husband had to put "his touch" on the cake. So we came up with the idea that he could do half, and I could do half! What do you think? The cake was still all the same inside, confetti with rainbow chip filling.

Carrie

I had to put a picture up with her decor in the background, because it was the whole theme that made it cute! Just kind of that country classic feel. Her cake was cream cheese chocolate with whipped chocolate ganache, french vanilla cake with cheesecake filling (yes, real cheesecake...why didn't I think of that!), and confetti cake with strawberry cream cheese filling.

Mindee and soon to be Zoee!

I saw this cake and couldn't wait for an opportuntiy to make it! It turned out adorable. Congratulations to Mindee and Austin and their bun in the oven, baby Zoee! Cake was cream cheese chocolate and my NEW almond poppyseed, with my NEW vanilla custard filling in each!

40th Wedding Anniversary...again.

If buttercream is my nemesis...then cream cheese frosting is my super arch-nemesis! No matter how tastey, it is ridiculous to work with! It is so soft and creamy and delicious...and therefore impossible to manage! (I am a hypocrite because this would be MY frosting of choice on any cake). Any how, this cake was topped with flowers that the couple had on their wedding cake 40 years ago (wahoo!) and scripted with their "slogan". (ha ha). Carrot cake and cream cheese chocolate, both with cream cheese filling.

Melissa is 18!!!!

Watch out everybody, she's an adult! This cake fit perfectly with the flair of Lissy's personality! She is absolutely beautiful, and fun, and girly, and adorable! It was chocolate, with buttercream filling, and raspberry swirl with raspberry filling. I made the flowers out of fondant, also. Yea Melissa!

Jade

What a beautiful wedding! They had everything decorated so pretty, I hope the cake matched the day! Bottom tier spice cake with bavarian cream, middle tier carrot cake with cream cheese, and top was french vanilla with raspberry cream cheese.

Butterfly cake bites for London

I decided to take a quick snap shot of some cake bites I did for a littel girl's 5th birthday. They turned out way cute, and I was suprised by how much i like the butterflies on the cookies and cream ones, I really liked the contrast of textures!

Hillary

I loved doing this cake! It was so fun and unique! All the gold was brushed with luster powder to make it metallic looking, and was really pretty! I also did cake bites, and a groom's cake, but I don't like how it turned out, so I'm not posting it! The cake was two tiers of cream cheese chocolate with raspberry, french vanilla with bavarian cream, and french vanilla with raspberry white chocolate ganche.

Double birthday for two awesome girls!

I did these cakes for my most favorite repeat client ever! She loves to make her kids birthdays special, and on this occasion she provided a cake for another little girl who is a friend of the family! The scuba girl cake was for her daughter, who got her scuba license just in time for her birthday party! The cake was cream cheese chocolate with raspberry filling, and orange cream cake with marshmallow buttercream filling (which they said was to "die for")! The second cake was for a girl who is an amazing organ player (and only 12 years old)! Her cake was a marble cake with chocolate/marshmallow buttercream. So Yummy!

R2D2

S-U-P-E-R AWESOME!!! This cake turned out so fun! It was a combined birthday party for a family, but mostly picked out for the twins, Bryan and Parker (4), who love Star Wars. I am way proud of this one. (Am I allowed to brag?) It was french vanilla cake with a whipped chocolate ganache filling. (This would make a cute groom's cake too!)

Beth

Super cute, super easy. The bride was so easy going, and doesn't even like cake! So we eventually came up with an idea, and it turned out adorable! I especially liked the ribbon she picked out for the border! French vanilla cake with raspberry filling on both tiers.

Kayti's Baby Shower

I was so excited to make this cake for Kayti's shower...it is so adorable! I'm not sure quite how well you can see the detail, but it is all "quilted" so it looks like it was sewn. Then I made a "button" to attach the wing. It was french vanilla with strawberry cream cheese filling. Congrats Kayti...and Aaron!

Lost and Found

I made this cake for a friend's birthday last year, but then didn't know where I stored the picture! I just went through some folders on my computer and found it in the most random place!

Beckie

Winter Wonderland themed wedding! This cake was covered in sugar crystals to give the look of ice. (The picures are horrible, but I chose the ones with the flash so you could actually see the sugar effect). It was really pretty in person!

Jessica

I did this cake MONTHS ago! I forgot my camera, and just now got a couple pics of the cake. The color is all funky, and I tried to do my best to lighten them up a little. (I think the window directly behind the cake was causing issues). Anyway, the cake was red velvet with cream cheese filling. Then it was frosted in buttercream, and covered with white chocolate curls done by hand! It was absolutely beautiful in person, and the flowers were so bright and vivid! I hope you can imagine it's fulll glory!

Tasia's Birthday!

I did a trade with a local photographer to get pictures for my 1 year old daughter, in exchange for her daughters 5th birthday cake. Tasia loves the Polar Express, and that became the theme for her party. The cake was three layers of confetti cake with strawberry filling.


Here are a couple pics Olga took of my daughter, who was NOT cooperating that day, but she was awesome and you can check her out at www.EndlessMemoriesPhoto.blogspot.com!
