Happy Fathers Day

Happy Father's Day!

Birthday Basket

Birthday cake for "Maria". Yellow cake with buttercream basket weave, purple accents, and gum paste orchids.

Mothers Day

A Mother's Day gift for the lady's at the church. It is a white cake with a new lemon curd filling, and a buttercream icing. Of course, the star of the show were the gum paste orchids.

Happy Easter 2012

Always a special time of year, especially for decorative baking.

Simple chocolate and yellow cupcakes, done in Spring pastel colors. Chocolate bunny and egg jelly beans on top, or a little birds nest with dyed coconut.

Always enjoy doing these. A Christmas gingerbread house, done up as a "Bunny Hut". Sour patch jelly beans on the roof, with Peeps bunnies looking to get in.

For those who can't enjoy the sugary sweet fare, here are sugar-free cupcakes, yellow and chocolate, with sugar free cream cheese icing, topped with fresh blackberries and sugar-free compote.

Finally, the archetypical Easter Lamb cake, made from lemon pound cake. Covered in buttercream and coconut, with dyed coconut, chocolate pieces and jelly beans around the base.

Engagement

This 12" heart shaped cake was done for a surprise engagement. It is a yellow cake with raspberry cream filling. The outside is a buttercream basket weave with golden yellow gum paste roses.

Anniversary/Birthday

A combination 47th Anniversary and 75th Birthday. Yellow cake, buttercream icing, and Dave's hand made gum paste roses. The small heart was detachable for the couple to take home while the rest was left for the luncheon.

Tennis Anyone?

Made for a neighbor lady who is very much into tennis. The rackets and net are made from white and dark chocolate, with a butter cream basket weave.
