Slice of Royalty






I was asked to make the "Slice of Cake" cake for a girl's party and to make it really "girly" with lots of pink and purple. This is what I came up with. It is covered in buttercream. The flowers and tiara are royal icing.

Hannah Montana sheet cake


A simple Hannah Montana sheet cake. I thought the musical notes would be a great detail for this cake. Buttercream frosting with royal icing details.

Football



This is a marble cake covered in buttercream with chocolate footballs, including the bigger one. I used the #1 pan to make it a bit easier.



Fit for a Princess


This cake was definately a challenge! But it was fun. It was a 3-tiered cake to feed 12-15 people, so it was mini-sized. Covered in marshmellow fondant with buttercream decorations and a small "smash cake" for the birthday girl.

Train Cupcakes

Train themed cupcake cake. The trains were provided by the mom. She got them at the 100 yen store. I will have to check out the toy section more often now. White and chocolate cupcakes with buttercream frosting.

Strawberry Shortcake



This is a chocolate and vanilla cake. It is completely covered in buttercream frosting. The top of each tier is marshmellow fondant, along with the stripes and berries. Strawberry Shortcake is made with a frozen buttercream transfer. A fun cake.



Treasure Hunt





A pirate cake made out of chocolate. The skull and crossbones is painted fondant with buttercream frosting. The black frosting is dark chocolate. The "gold" coins on the side are fondant with gold sprinkles covering them.
