Winnie the Pooh Cake

2010-06-08T21:27:00.000-07:00

My daughter is in love with Winnie the Pooh, so there was no question about what kind of cake I'd make her for her 2nd birthday party! I wanted to something sassy, colorful and fun, so this is what came out. It was a white cake filled with chocolate fudge pudding with Reeses chunks. I'm not going to lie, it was delicious! Covered in homemade marshmallow fondant. The cupcakes were triple chocolate cake with buttercream frosting.

Before I stacked the cake...

Shawn & Nick's Wedding Cake

2010-05-30T22:48:00.000-07:00

DC Snowboarding Half Pipe Cake

2010-05-30T22:33:00.000-07:00

Future Orders

2010-01-24T21:52:00.000-08:00

I'm sad to announce that I will not be taking any further cake orders. In a nutshell, it is just too stressful with a toddler. I have been so blessed with so many to support me and have had quite an adventure. I still have some orders to take care of in the next few months, three wedding cakes included, and will continue to make cakes for family here and there. Stay tuned. =)

This was exciting - I've been in touch with a publisher for a website "Macaroni Kid" whose been wanting to advertise for me. I haven't been able to afford to pay for it, but she said she couldn't stop thinking about my cakes and wanted to order one from me! So in exchange for making this cake for her, she's going to do a write up about my cakes in the weekly newsletter for two weeks!

On the cute site, North Sound Macaroni Kid, she highlights local happenings for kids and families in the North Sound area, also including household tips, recipes, craft ideas and etc. Check it out!

Finished up Wilton Course 3 with the mini wedding cake! My lilies weren't hard enough in time for class, so I put them on the next day. =) Also, this time around I made homemade marshmallow fondant and it tastes SOOO much better than store bought. Oh my!
