A Family Birthday

I was asked to make 3 different cakes for a woman's children for a group birthday party. I had fun making each cake specifically for each child. Although I've done Blue's Clues and Mario before they always come out different and I love that!

Cowboy Cake

This is a cake from this past weekend. I had a lot of fun making a western/cowboy cake. The bandanna and the cowboy boots were a new challenge and I am so thankful that I am able to learn new techniques. I also thought the western landscape was a fun way to incorporate with the whole cowboy theme.

Finally Home

After lots of driving, lots of walking and lots of staying in hotels....we have made it home! We all had a blast at Disneyland and I'll admit that Blizzcon wasn't too bad either but it is so nice to be home. Now I just have to get back into the swing of things!

Jordan 11 Sneaker

I was so nervous about this cake because it took me completely out of my comfort zone. I am so comfortable with making just tiered cakes so making a shaped one I wasn't quite sure I could do it. But I can! I had some issues at first but I am so happy with how this turned out and I wouldn't mind making it again!

Baby Shoes

Since I didn't have any cakes until the weekend I decided to try something different. I made baby sneakers and baby crocs. They aren't perfect but for my first attempt I think they came out decent. Can't wait to try making them again!

Welcome Baby Ashlynn!

I love the baby shoes on this cake! They took me a while to get perfect but they are just too adorable!

Princess Peach and Yoshi Cake

This is my third Mario related cake this year....which I love! Anyone who knows me knows I have a slight obsession with Mario (especially Super Mario Bros. 3!). With this cake they wanted a Princess Peach and Yoshi. I love how them came out (although Yoshi is a tad bit darker than he should be).

Cookies!

I kept seeing these neat sugar cookies while surfing cake sites. So I decided to give it a try and I loved it! There are some really neat things you can do with cookies. Here is what I have made so far and tons more to come!

Welcome!

I want to take a minute to say welcome and thank you so much for looking at my new blog! I have been offering my cake services to the wonderful people of the Fort Hood area for a couple months now and thought I would finally start a blog to give you a kind of "behind-the-scenes" of what I do every week. I make at least 1-2 cakes a week and when I'm not busy I venture out into the world of cupcakes and cookies! I have always loved baking and decorating but just recently decided to go for it and start "full-time"...or at least as much as I can with 2 little ones! I hope that you come back and check for more posts soon. I am always doing something in the kitchen and would love the chance to share it with you!
