How Could I Forget!!??

I just realized that I forgot to post these beauties!  My apologies to Kermit and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles...

And a few others...

Guinness Cupcakes with Bailey's Buttercream...I don't think I need to say anything else...

The infamous chocolate covered Oreos!  All fancy for Easter!

This was a cake donated to a fundraiser for Concordia Pre-school in Wilmington, DE.  What a fun event!  Ladies dessert night with raffle baskets, silent auction, and wine...PERFECT!  Vanilla Cake, almond swiss meringue buttercream filling, covered in chocolate ganache.  PERFECT!

Busy Busy Week!

I'm so grateful to have an amazing business partner (and husband), that makes it possible for me to make my cake dreams come true.  Other than my 7 year old baker in the making, he's my biggest fan.

This lovely lighthouse cake is vanilla with almond buttercream and made it's debut at a Maine themed luncheon.

A spa themed birthday cake for an adorable 8 year old!  Chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream.

This cake was donated for a beef and beer benefitting the Heart of Hope Caralynn Titter Foundation.  The charity supports families with a child undergoing or waiting for a heart transplant.  Vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream.  I did my best to recreate the tree that is on the website. 

My first Fondarific Cake!

What a huge difference a new product and a few hours with an amazing celebrity chef can make!  I'm thrilled that I had an opportunity to spend some time with Chef Dana Herbert from TLC's Next Great Baker and Desserts by Dana.  He is both an amazing chef, cake decorator and person!

He gave me tips and techniques that both increased my ability and my confidence.  All of a sudden, I feel like this cake thing might be for real!

This cake was created for a champagne bridal shower.  Vanilla cake with champagne buttercream filling.  I was nervous about this buttercream at first but it tasted great!

This is my first Fondarific cake.  Fondarific fondant is, hands down, the best fondant I've worked with. The most amazing thing about it is that it doesn't dry out.  It allows for so much more time for working on your cake.  All of the pink is 50/50 fondant/gum paste.
