Navy Blue & Champagne
This is the cake that I made for Jade and John's wedding! Two of the tiers were white cake with fresh raspberry buttercream, and the other two were carrot cake with caramel buttercream. I used a combination of real and silk flowers that were available at the reception.

Topsy Turvy Wedding Cake
This was my first topsy turvy cake, which I made for Larke and Luis' wedding! The flavors were white cake with strawberry filling, chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream, and one tier was made out of rice krispy treats. All covered in marshmallow fondant, with gumpaste fantasy flowers.

Tea Party Birthday!
We had a service auction at church and I offered to make a cake. I was super excited when the winner of that auction said she was having a tea party theme for her daughter's birthday because I've always wanted to make a teapot cake. I had trouble with the spout - I had one all sculpted out of fondant and it kept falling and the skewers kept poking through so I scrapped that and invented this funky spout made with balls of fondant. I wasn't thrilled with it, but I was running out of time and didn't know what else to do. I was happy with the rest of the cake though.
Another - smaller - wedding cake
I made this as a favor for a friend - the bride and groom just needed a small tier to cut for their reception here, and I was given free reign to decorate it however I wanted, but with the aqua and purple color scheme. I went with a more modern take on the flowers for a change. This could also work well as a birthday cake, anniversary cake, etc. The cake was vanilla with vanilla buttercream, covered in fondant.

Danny and Jodee's Wedding Cake

This was the cake that I made for my brother and his lovely bride! It was a fun cake for a beautiful, fun couple!
The bottom tier was vanilla bean cake, the middle tier was buttermilk devil's food cake and the top tier was banana cake, all filled and frosted with vanilla buttercream. I made all of the magnolias out of gumpaste.

My Baby Turns 3!!
For my daughter's birthday she requested a "baloo pincess tate". Or, in other words, a blue princess cake. I used candy coating for the bodice of the dress, and didn't quite match the color of the frosting to that of the candy, but that's o.k., just this once. :) I also used blue and silver pearl sprinkles for a little something extra on the skirt. :) The cake was a white confetti cake with vanilla buttercream.
