eagles cake

I was hosting a baby shower at my house for a friend from church. She is having a baby boy and they are huge Philadelphia Eagles fans so I made the logo for the Eagles. Of all the cakes I have made, this is John's favorite!

pink & brown shower cake

First time using chocolate fondant...man that stuff is so yummy! Bow has pink luster dust...another first. The ladies at the baby shower totally loved it!

OSSAS

Oklahoma State Sugar Art Show in Tulsa October 4-5, 2009.
I had a very busy week this week and I told John I felt like I was on Food Network Cake Challenge for this one..."Contestants, you have 8 hours to complete your cake!" Anyway, I took my inspiration from Kayla's teapot sitting next to the cake. I had fun and I learned a lot for what to expect next year!

John 3:16

Made this cross cake for a friend's son who accepted Christ as his Savior during the Ronnie Hill Crusade at church. This was his favorite verse so we put it on the cake. LOVE this idea!

pink bow!

One of the ladies who attended the Funshops at church liked this cake so much she wanted me to make one for her three year old's birthday! I have figured the bow thing out and really like making the bows!

Georgia Football

This one is for some huge Georgia fans! I used fondant on the helmet and the end zones of the field and then buttercream on the rest. LOVED how the helmet came out!

First sale

MY FIRST SALE!
Oh My Goodness! I was so excited to make this for little Addison. The cake was made to match the invitation and I had so much fun making the ladybug. I think this is when i realized I could really get into this "cake business!"

simplicity

White fluffy cake with fluffy chocolate icing...YUM-O! I had some royal flowers so I threw them on top. We took this to a friends house for dinner.

FUNSHOPS

I taught a class on cake decorating at church for our annual "Funshops." These two were so much fun to make with all the ladies watching and taking notes...surprisingly I was not nervous at all. The Lord was so gracious this night to give me peace and let everything go smoothly...

basket weave

Made this one for my Course 2 Wilton final cake. Royal icing flowers and my first stab at basket weave. The cake was lemon and oh so good!

sunflower bday cake

This was my birthday cake! It was really yummy an I wanted to keep the center chocolate ball all to myself! The petals are fondant and the base is covered in fondant with some scroll work. I like this one a lot!

triathlon

John was running in a triathlon and I decided to make him a cake. This was my first attempt at a person and I think he turned out pretty cute with his swim cap and goggles! We had some friends over to help us eat it! Kind of an oxymoron to eat cake right before a race I guess.
