Fishin' For Cake



This was a super fun cake to make! It is chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream. I used my airbrush to color the fish but the color was much too dark, so I used a pearl airbrush color to even it out went over it with some luster dust.

Boy's Best Friends




This design came straight from the birthday boy's invitation! The frog is even made out of cake.
My dad built the stand and the wagon handle but everything else is completely edible. I even tried to mimick the Radio Flyer logo with the birthday boy's name. The small cake with the frog on top is to be removed for the baby so he can smash it!

Spooky Halloween Cakes




Lasso a cake


It was a lot of fun to use my airbrush on this cake to do the sunset. The cowboy's name is on the cake, spelled out in the lasso!

Autumn Cakes




A couple of small 6" cakes celebrating the arrival of fall!

Pear Cake


This was not a fancy cake, but it was so yummy!
Vanilla Cinnamon cake with pear compote filling and champagne buttercream!

Coffee and Chocolate Frenzy




Making fondant coffee beans was a task that took a lot longer than I had imagined, but they looked so real when I was finished.....totally worth it!
Camille was leaving her job at Peet's coffee and Lynae wanted to surprise her with a cake to celebrate!
Mocha cake, mocha buttercream, mocha fondant and the coffee beans are all chocolate...
Buzz, buzz, buzz!

There is a light in my cake


A good friend asked me to make a beach themed cake, but not the usual So Cal coast theme. So we decided on the lighthouse, two layers...carrot cake on top and chocolate on bottom with cream cheese buttercream.
The top of the lighthouse comes off and I inserted a small light that you can turn on and off.

Hot Dog!

I had been patiently waiting for someone to order a hot dog cake......and it paid off! It is a vanilla cake with champagne buttercream. The first time I got to play with my new airbrush! I delivered this cake to a really cool restaurant in Santa Monica and I wish I could have stayed for the reaction.
