Gay's Game Night Taboo Birthday Cake!

I made this replica of a Taboo game box for Gay's Game Night Birthday Extravaganza! It was so much fun, although I strongly feel that "SWAK" should be removed from the game. (Can anyone even tell me what "SWAK" is?!) Another tip, don't misread "Ad-lib" for "Mad-lib".

Happy Birthday Gay!!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Daniel!

Blake's Alpargata Sailboat

A replica of Blake Mycoskie (with his Captain's hat of course) and his sailboat, The Alpargata, for his birthday! Blake is the creator and owner of TOMS shoes: for every pair of shoes that are purchased a pair is given to a child in need.

Sometimes we take the little things in life for granted-- like the shoes on our feet. A pair of shoes can help prevent a child who walks miles every day to go to school or do chores from getting diseases, cuts and scrapes that can lead to infections, etc. and makes their life a little more comfortable. Check out the new fall styles at www.TOMSSHOES.com

Happy Birthday Blake!

This was for a Gag Baby Shower/Birthday Party! It's a baby who resembles the birthday boy (thus the goatee) who is bent over looking through his chubby baby legs. Across his diapered butt is "Mini Thaw". I had a lot of fun making this cake!

90th Birthday Crochet and Sewing Themed Cake

Purple Hydrangea Wedding Cake

Inspired by the bride's flowers and colors for her wedding, this 3-tiered display wedding cake features cream colored fondant layers with purple fondant ribbon at each base, royal icing painted swirls, and a sugar hydrangea, stephanotis, and rose bouquet topper at the top tier.

A display cake means it is made with a styrofoam base without any cake. Display cakes are a great idea for good photo ops and the cake designer has more time to work on the design since there is no need to worry about the cake going bad! It is also a lot easy to transport and can sit out in hot weather and not melt!

I also made a matching 6" cake for the bride and groom to cut into for the cake cutting ceremony. Additional sheet cakes were made to serve all the guests. The cakes were deep chocolate cake w/chocolate buttercream, and white cake w/lemon cream cheese frosting.

Congratulations to the lovely bride Allison and Brad!

It was a pleasure working with her and she has helped to raise 187 meals for Food4Africa!
