Asian Theme Cake

My Daughter wanted an Asian themed birthday, and she loves fans, so this is what I came up with for her birthday cake.



To make the fan I rolled out white fondant cut out my tree and flowers, "glued" them onto the white fondant and then rolled the whole thing out again. I made the pleats and let it dry overnight.

Santa Cake

 I wanted to make something simple and easy, and I definitely did. This couldn't have been any easier to make, and I think it turned out pretty cute. I just iced the cake in red buttercream, used an easy icer to pipe the black belt and then did the buttons and buckle. I piped "snow" on the side and added sparkle to it.  There you go a Santa belt cake. Easy and cute!

Fondant Ombre Rose Cake

 This cake was made for my wonderful Mom's birthday. I wanted to do something a little more elegant, but still fun. I love doing ruffle cakes and thought I would try something new. There are 3 different purples starting with the darkest going lighter until there is only the white on top. I think it turned out very pretty, but if I did it again, I think I would "ombre" the cake even more with varying the colors.

Halloween Sugar Cookies

 Halloween is a fun time to try out new things. I made a bunch of sugar cookies and tried out some different designs. These are all made out of buttercream.
 I love the monster cookies, they are made with a grass tip. The big eyes are plastic rings, a fun surprise for the little kid eating the cookie.

When you think of Halloween of course you think of pumpkins. I did some with Jack-O-Lantern faces and left others plain.
 Spiders are creepy so they go along with Halloween as well. I swirled the black around the cookie over the white, then pulled a knife through it to make the webbing. The spider is made with a grass tip.
 There are limitless things you could make and fun to decorate.

Simple Buttercream Wedding Cake

This is a simple buttercream wedding cake. It has 3 different sizes of dots on the side going from smallest to biggest in an alternating pattern. They wanted a top and bottom border made of dots too. This could be easily dressed up with flowers to match the wedding colors.

Flower Cupcakes

These cupcakes are so fun to make. After you make all the different colored frosting and pipping bags it goes fairly quickly. There are so many flowers to choose from and I definitely am not an expert at making all of them, but I like to try. This time I made daises, roses, sunflowers, and mums. I was way out of practice when I made these but, hopefully I will be able to make some more.

Cute as a Button

My adorable little baby just turned one. I did a "cute as a button" cake for her. I had a mold for the buttons and made them out of fondant. I think it turned out pretty cute haha.
