Halloween

I spent 2 days on this cake and it turned out fantastic!! It's a chocolate raspberry cake with a raspberry filling and vanilla buttercream icing. The decorations are made from both gum paste and fondant. Let me know what you think!




Baby Aiden

A baby shower cake for baby Aiden. The only instruction I was given was that it was a monkey theme. All of the decorations, including the monkeys (which I also made) are made out of fondant. This is one of my favorite cakes I made. The flavor is snickerdoodle which is a vanilla cinnamon cake with a brown sugar and cinnamon buttercream. Probably the best cake I've ever tasted in my life...no joke!



Birthday Party

This is a birthday cake for my grandmother's 80th birthday. The first time my family actually saw a cake that I made for an event. The flavor is a vanilla cake with raspberry and white chocolate mouse and a a white chocolate buttercream icing...delicious!!


State Fair Cake

I submitted this cake to the Maryland State Fair under the bridal shower category. I decided with 2 days left to submit that I wanted to do a cake. I placed second in my category!


Baby Shower

This is a baby shower cake that I made for an office baby shower. It was a surprise shower. Everyone thought the baby was a girl except the expecting mother who said she was having a boy. The cake flavor is vanilla bean with buttercream frosting. An added touch was 2 out of the 3 layers were colored pink and the top layer was blue.


Bridal Shower


This is for a bridal shower at an office party that I made. The topper and the ring are not edible but were cute touches. :)

Friends Wedding Cake

My best friend got married and I was the Maid of Honor as well as the cake baker. This was my first attempt at a real cake for an event.
