Teacakes

Here is a batch of teacakes I did for someone recently. I just love rolling and cutting these out!

Pokemon

Well it never ceases to amaze me the characters that come back around in popularity. I had a request recently for Pokemon. The client said her little boy just loves him. She ordered cupcakes, a small cake and a sheet cake for different events for her son's 5th birthday. Here are pictures from each.

Jerry's 50th Birthday

My friend Jerry turned 50 in August and he also graduated from War College in Virginia after about 3 grueling years of labor-intensive work! So his wife wanted to give him a very special birthday this year and have a dual celebration. She had asked me several months ago to be thinking about a cake and so I started looking at some pictures and trying to think of something special to do for him. I think it turned out great!

BBQ Grill Cake

I think this was my most creative/challenging cake thus far. A coworkers' wife called me and asked if I would make Keith's 40th birthday cake. He loves to grill and she wanted to know if I thought I might be able to do a grill/BBQ cake. Well I began looking for pictures/instructions on how I might go about this one. Found many great ideas and actually it was much easier than I expected and LOTS of fun! I used Tootsie Rolls and Starburst for the

hamburger patties and cheese, hotdogs, beef kabobs and peppers. I used Twizzlers to make the "grill rack" to raise it up off the cake a bit and then cut little pieces of the Twizzlers and sprinkled powdered sugar on them to represent coals. All in all it turned out great!

13-year-old Birthday Cake

This has to be one of my favorite cakes I've made. One of my coworkers asked me to do her 13-year-old's birthday cake. Her daughter had definite ideas on what she wanted her cake to look like and Rhonda brought a computer drawing of the cake with the colors. Her daughter had made the numbers and letters herself for the cake topper and her grandmother tied the bow for the top. The top and bottom layers were chocolate on chocolate and the middle layer was white cake with chocolate icing. The colors turned out beautiful if I do say so myself!

Layer Cakes

I also do a variety of layer cakes. Here are some pictures of my German Chocolate cake, a Strawberry Cream cake and a new one I tried just this last weekend: Almond Sour Cream Cake with cheesecake filling and Raspberry Buttercream Icing.

I also do Coconut, Chocolate sheet, Caramel, Red Velvet, Pound Cakes, Butternut and will try any flavor combinations that are requested.

I also decided to try a cheesecake.  Here is the result.  It was delish!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Well who knew that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would make a comeback! But they have. I had a request this month from a grandmother of an eight-year-old for this cake.
