I don't know if the things I did in school count. Since most of what  I did was'nt my own idea or creation I don't know if they would be considered mine. Sure I did the work or the production as my classmates liked to call it, but it was the instructors gem. I am proud of what I did, I put everything I had into my projects and only once or twice felt like I could have done better...but I won't tell you which ones they were =)

Pink Cake





I made this cake pink for a very special little girl in my life. She loves pink (of course) and wanted it to be pretty. Simple requests right? Well she seemed to think it was amazing...and it made me happy to see her happy.

Sally and Zac's cake

So Sally was incredibly relaxed about the whole cake process. She wanted chocolate buttercream. I made her a genoise cake with raspbery and chocolate filling, and a chocolate cake with a cream filling. The smallest cake we didnt know exactly what we were going to do, so at the last minute I decided to do the spiral ribbons and it has been one of my favorite cakes that I have done! And so easy!

Molly's wedding cake

So with nine sisters, there eventually comes a time when one will ask if I can make their wedding cake. Since I am the type of person that can't say no, I did. This was before I had any experience and before I went to school. (I am not going to post pictures of my first cake, although it wasn't to terrible, just leaning.) I vowed to never make another cake for any of my other sisters weddings. That didn't last long. Molly asked me to make hers and that it didn't have to be anything fancy, chocolate even. So I did it, and I am really glad I did.

Chocolate and Strawberries....whats not to love?

I did this cake for an Anniversary for a very sweet couple. The wife knew exactly what she wanted and asked me to make it for her. I was delighted and happy that I could do it. The chocolate shavings were trickier than I thought they would be, but still fun and a great learning experience.

More Chocolate!

I made this for the cutest set of twins' 1st birthday. The daddy wanted chocolate buttercream and the mommy wanted fondant, and voila! This was created! It was my first with so many things, but it was fun! So the adults got to eat the big sinful cake and the twins got to eat the gluten free smash cakes....happiness all around. Cuz thats how I do...

Feels like Spring.....right?

This is a chocolate buttercream with marshmallow fondant decorations. This cake had to be pretty and delicious at the same time, and who says chocolate buttercream can't do both?! I especially love the chocolate ruffles.
