Bridal Shower Cupcake Tower

I had the pleasure of creating this pretty cake topper for this cupcake tower.  I was given the lovely color palette below to create whatever I wanted.

The cupcakes were chocolate sour cream with chocolate buttercream and vanilla bean cupcakes with lemon swiss meringue buttercream.  I loved how it turned out and so excited to create their wedding cake in one month!

 

Butterflies and Flowers

A pretty cake with some butterflies and flowers for a 2 year old.  Have a fabulous week everyone and thanks for stopping by!

Wedding Mini Cake Tower

There are a few colors that go really well with chocolate brown.... all shades of pink pink, light blue and definitely teal.  This was a fun wedding mini-cake tower.

Nurses Week Cupcakes

It's National Nurses Week which is celebrated every year starting May 6th to 12th.  Everyone of us knows a nurse - whether it be a family member, friend, acquaintance or someone who has helped ourselves or a loved one.   

They truly are very special people who do a very special and tough job.  And there are always those extra special ones that go beyond the call of duty.  Thank you to all the Nurses in our lives!

1st Birthday Cake: Sesame Street Cake

I sure love making Sesame Street themed cakes!  Here's a simple and fun design for a 1st birthday cake.

My daughter's 2nd birthday is a couple months away and Cookie Monster will be the main theme of the dessert table.  I'm so excited and found so many great ideas on Pinterest.

2nd Birthday Cake: Bubble Guppies Cake

There are so many different TV shows for kids out there... have you heard of the Bubble Guppies?  A cute little show that my daughter also loves, but calls it "Buggies".  And she recognized the characters so I knew it was toddler approved.

The cake was strawberry vanilla cake filled with strawberry preserves and vanilla swiss meringue buttercream.  I was able to use some of the design techniques that I learned from the Cakelava Clownfish cake design.

5th Birthday Cake: Transformers Cake

I say this every year, but one of my favorite things is to make a birthday cake for my wonderful nephew.  Here's a review of his past birthdays!

• 1st birthday was a Heffalump cake 
• 2nd birthday was a Tractor 
• 3rd birthday was a Crane 
• 4th birthday was a Stegosaurus

This year, Maseo turned 5 and he loves Transformers.  The cake was 6-layers of zesty lemon cake with vanilla swiss meringue buttercream.  He even saved all the handmade sugarpaste decorations.

Monkey Cake

It's been over a month since I last posted.  I took a bit of a cake break and slowly getting back into things.  Finally getting around to posting this fun monkey cake I made for the March Issue of Today's Parent Magazine.

Monkey's are always very popular with the little ones because they are such monkey's themselves :-)  Hope everyone is happy, healthy and enjoying the springtime!

Lavender Baptism Cake

A wonderful lavender cake for a little girls baptism.  I always find shades of purple and blue hard to get just right.  I loved how this lavender turned out!

The top tier was strawberry vanilla cake with cream cheese icing.  The bottom tier was banana sour cream cake with cream cheese icing.

Spiderman Cupcakes

Last week was Batman cupcakes.  This week it is Spiderman cupcakes for a little boys birthday. Chocolate Sour Cream cupcakes with chocolate cream cheese icing - yum!
