Isabelle's Sleeping Beauty Cake

Happy 2nd Birthday Isabelle! Her favorite movie last year was Pinocchio; this year it's Sleeping Beauty-- one of my favorite movies of ALL TIME! So needless to say, I was excited to be making this and even watched a few clips of the movie on youtube for "research". (I love the "Once Upon A Dream" scene when Aurora is dancing with the owl and then Prince Phillip cuts in :)

The 2 tiered cake features Princess Aurora, Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather dancing in the forest and the castle on the top tier. The cake is adorned with a #2 topper, fluffy clouds, and some sparkle!

I leave you with some Sleeping Beauty Trivia: did you know that even though Princess Aurora is the main character she appears in the movie for less than 18 minutes?

Masquerade Themed Cake

A masquerade themed cake for Samantha's Sweet 16! 3 tiers of vanilla cake with chocolate ganache filling. The design was inspired by the birthday invites and colors. Bottom tier has a diamond pattern with gold dots, middle tier has a hand painted "Samantha" using the same font as the invitation and floral designs, and the top tier has hand painted strips. All gold accents are hand painted on. One of the heavier cakes I have made-- feels heavier than Lucciano! I took it up 2 flights of stairs too! Good thing it made it in one piece :) Whew!

Pisces Birthday Cake

This was a Pisces themed cake for my two co-workers and friends who have the same birthday! Each mini tiered cake has a fish on top to symbolize their sign and hard candy was used to decorate the water.
