Butterfly Birthday

Super Hero Cake

 I was asked to do a cake for a boy's 5th Birthday.  for some reason I thought it was Spider-man that he wanted.  About and hour before the cake was due I text-ed this picture to the mom with the chocolate mold of Spidies Head was cooling.  I got a Question back saying I hope you meant Superman!  OOPPPSSSS!

Took almost the hour but I got the Superman cake done just in time to save the day!

Snow flake bridal shower cake

One of the teachers from school was getting married and I was asked to make a shower cake for the teachers to enjoy. I had fun with this one. Made lots of snowflakes although they are hard to see.

Just for fun! Watermelon Cake

We had family dinner the other day and I said I would bring dessert. Well Will really wanted watermelon cake. Had been asking for a while but I was not sure what to do. So I looked online and found a recipe for watermelon cake. But they looked like slices of watermelon. I thought wouldn't it be cool to try to make it look like real watermelon. So I have a football cake pan and made two batches of the cake. Frosted it with white fluffy frosting then used green fondant to cover it. I used red spray to make the "cut" side look more like real watermelon. It was fun and not too hard to do.




Watermelon Cake
From Betty Crocker
Savor the sweetest slice of watermelon you'll ever eat! The chocolate seeds are a melt-in-your-mouth prize.

1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® white cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and egg whites called for in cake mix directions
1 package (0.13 oz) cherry or other red-colored unsweetened soft drink mix
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1 container (12 oz) Betty Crocker® Whipped fluffy white frosting
Green and red food colors
2/3 cup green jelly beans

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottoms only of two 8- or 9-inch round pans with shortening or cooking spray.
2. In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil, egg whites and drink mix with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds; beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips. Pour into pans.
3. Bake 27 to 32 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
4. In small bowl, stir 1 cup frosting with 10 to 12 drops green food color. Stir 10 to 12 drops red food color into remaining frosting. Cut cake rounds crosswise in half to make 4 halves. Frost uncut sides with green frosting; press green jelly beans into frosting. Frost top of cake with red frosting; press remaining 2 tablespoons chocolate chips into frosting for seeds. To serve, cut into wedges.

Success
Use mini chips to make sure there are lots of chips and that they stay distributed in the cake

Will's Birtthday

This year we were in Las Vegas for Will's birthday. We had a sports theme birthday party. I made party cupcakes with party frosting with a tag in the top. Then I made cupcake pops (found at Bakerella)

I made them into Basketballs, footballs, and baseballs. The only problem I had was the humidity. Who would have thought that the end of July in Las Vegas there would be a problem with humidity. They looked really cute even if they were melting!

Good Bye to Jenn Cake!

I made 4 cakes in 4 days. They were all pretty much the same cake just a little different designs or flavor of cake. This one was 2/3 White and 1/3 chocolate.

Thank you Cake

This was done for the PTO luncheon. The cake pan calls for three boxes of mix,so I took chocolate, yellow and strawberry to make a Neapolitan cake. It was good. There were left overs so one of the 6th grade classes I help with came in and got some. They were very impressed!

Good Bye Cakes

Another Wedding Cake

I made this cake in June of 2007. It is buttercream frosting with fondont roses in three different colors. I gave the cake plate as a wedding gift as well.

Snow Shoveling Thank You Cake

Purple Castle Cake

This was for Young Women's New Beginnings.

Wedding Cake

This was a wedding cake for a friend of mine. She showed it to me out of a high end Wedding Magizine. It was listed at around $4000. I know why! It was going to be to heavy and hard to make from cake. So I made it from styrophome. I used fondont and buttercream as well. In fact it was in my dinner room for years after the wedding.


This is the cake topper. I made this the same as the actuall cake topper but out of cake. I really liked how this turned out.

This was one of three sheet cakes we made for the wedding. It was white chocolate cake with rasberry filling and white chocolate buttercream frosting and real rasberries on top. It was awesome. I melted white chocolate and mixed it with the frosting. I used white chocolate pudding mix with white cake mix for the cake. It has turned out to be one of my specialties!

Light Saber Cakes

Made these for Wills Kid party. The theme was Star Wars. We had Light Sabers and trained to be Jedi's.

Easter Eggs

This was a wedding cake it did that went with this Grooms cake. There were sooooo many Royal Icing Roses on it. It was sooo heavy that we could not put the top two layers on it. With out it falling apart. It worked out well though because the reception was at this cool Mansion in Downtown Toledo called Mansion View Inn. Any way, the cakes were in two different rooms that way there was less conjestion. While the Bride and Groom cut the cake in one room I was cutting the cake in the other to serve to the quests.
