Roses, Berries & Watercolor Cake

This is one of my absolute favorite cakes! I love the look of the sugar roses and the arrangement along with the leaves and berries. It is so beautiful!
 The watercolor effect was not the original design I had in mind. It only had all pink stripes but thought it looked plain. I luckily had enough drying time to do this and the results are gorgeous!

Mickey Mouse Cakes

These Mickey Mouse cakes were made two weeks apart. The first cake pictured is a birthday cake for baby Jakob who turned 1. I had so much fun making this cake!
The Minnie Mouse cake was inspired from a picture the mother had sent me. She wanted something simple and wanted to change some of the colors of the cake.
 It always makes me happy when I'm requested to make beautiful cakes for such special occasions. It truly is an honor to be a part of their special day.

Hydrangea birthday cake

I love the colors on these! Yes,  I know it's fall but the birthday girl requested fun colorful flowers. This  cake was inspired from my hydrangea dress cake I made last year.

Double barrel engagement cake and peony sugar flower

The peony sugar flower on this cake was made using my very own peony cutters. Yes, my own cutters! As much as I like the other cutters I've been using I often still have to alter the look of my petals. So why not make my own the way I like it? The cutters still needs improvement but I'm so excited about them. Will be selling them on Etsy soon. Stay tuned!

Cath Kidston inspired cake

It so sweet when a husband orders a cake for their wife. My client's wife is a big fan of Cath Kidston and wanted a cake inspired by her designs. I absolutely love the colors on this cake!
Okay, so I have a confession to make. I can't draw! In fact if you asked me to draw anything I could only come up with stick figures. But surprisingly when push comes to shove, I can somehow draw something decent on cakes. My husband was even surprised!
