I would have to say this is my 2nd favorite cake so far. It was made for 2 little boys who are one year apart. So one was celebrating his 1st and the other his 2nd. Everything about this one turned out exactly like I wanted it to. The bottom sheet cake is Chocolate Fudge with a Peanut Butter Filling. The Barn and the haystack were chocolate chip cake. Everything covered in vanilla buttercream except the roof of the barn and it was chocolate buttercream. All animals were made from fondant. They turned out so cute. The tractor, fence, and Little Farmer were the only things non edible. I had soooo much fun doing this cake. The smash cake was also chocolate chip with chocolate buttercream filling. I got to see the pictures of the little boy and he was all over the smash cake. It was the cutest thing. I hope I can do something like this one again.
For a very fun 40th Birthday! Marble cake with Whipped Chocolate Ganache Filling. Vanilla Buttercream with black scroll work. She found the pink sparkly topper which worked great with the other decorations. You can't see it in the pictures but I brushed pearl dust on the cake to give it a little more sparkle.

A spa themed birthday. Chocolate cake with buttercream. All fondant accents. Since I only have boys, I had fun doing all the girly parts to this cake. There is a lipstick tube, comb, fingernail polish bottle, mirror, compact, flip flops, the toe seperator, fingernail file, makeup brush, and the mascara tube. This was for my cousin's little girl, who is all girl. She loves to play dress up. I loved everything about this cake and the colors just work so well together.
This is for all you Star Wars fans out there! For a 4th birthday this little boy wanted a Storm Troopers helmet. Hopefully I did it justice since I don't really know a lot about Star Wars. All buttercream with fondant accents and I also used Licorice for the mouth (speaker) and band across the top. Didn't get to see his reaction, but I heard that he loved it!
What a crazy cake this was! It was my first topsy turvy and I was a nervous wreck. It was fine until I had to deliver it. I ended up riding in the back of my truck holding it while my husband drove. Needless to say I was not as happy with this one and I really wanted it to look good for our friends daughter's 16th birthday. The concept and design was so cute! And she loved it so that made it all better. So its devils food on the bottom and middle. Funfetti on the top layer. The 16 is made from Lollipop sticks and fondant. All buttercream with fondant accents. The black stars were fondant and the silver stars were white chocolate painted with silver dust. I just prayed that it stood up until she was ready to cut it. I just knew it was going to tumble. Better luck next time!
My best friends grandmother was turning 80. So to give them a little variety we made the cookie cake and the simple sheet cake. She loves all flowers, wish I had a little more time to do different ones. The colors for the party were pinks, purple, and blue. I was really proud of how these turned out.
