Cupcakes for a Shopaholic

Red velvet and cream cheese frosting with cute little shoes, purses, sunglasses and shopping bags.

Barbie Doll Cake

Let's pretend the lumps in her dress are lots of tulle! I may or may not have jammed her in so hard her feet came out the bottom of the cake, and I may or may not have half exploded the top layer, but she still came out darlin'. Happy 7th birthday, Kaitlyn!

Miniature Wedding Birthday Cake

Sounds perplexing, doesn't it? The client ordered a wedding cake for a birthday cake...a tiny one! It's four inches over six inches of mmm. Chocolate cake, chocolate ganache and vanilla buttercream.

Names Hidden to Protect the Elderly

Happy Birthday to a good sport! Not only is this cake insulting, it's also delicious! Rich, decadent chocolate cake, ripe strawberries, fresh whipped cream, coconut frosting and crunchy toasted coconut garnish.

The Haunted Corporate Anniversary Cake

As a cakesmith, it was bound to happen that I'd encounter a haunted cake eventually. This was mine. Everything that could go wrong with it went wrong. The awesome 2-toned steam train crumbled into avogadro's number of pieces, the maroon lettering turned out purple, the cake didn't rise, I ran out of frosting, and to boot, I bumped my head putting it in the fridge.

After this delightful piece of craftsmanship (pictured below) crumbled, I used my son's Thomas and Friends book as a model to freehand a stencil for the fondant cutout. So basically, the fine establishment celebrating its anniversary got Thomas the Tank Engine on its cake!
