weekend cakes...

u already saw the cupcake cake i made for Corinn's birthday snack today (she's 6!!!)...it was 23 fudge chip cupcakes - iced/decorated in butter cream

but i also had 2 other cake orders this weekend...

1st was this cutie for an old friend (BHS grads - this was for Keena's son)...she lives about 2hrs away, but her parents are still local & are always happy to deliver cakes for us...i made Cole's big sister's 1st birthday cake back in 2008 - this time, it was his turn

Cole's mom said the elephant theme has followed him from birth...his cake was 2 tiers of fudge chip, iced in butter cream, then accented in fondant...i made the little elephant from fondant as well

i also created a little peanut smash cake for Coleman (yellow cake, iced in butter cream)...although from certain angels, this cake tends to look more like boobs or a butt! ~lol~

Cole's mom sent me this pic & a sweet email after the party...
"Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! The cake was perfect, just as I had imagined! And taste good...man! Love that chocolate chocolate chip! Thanks Sharon! Your cakes made the day perfect!"

isn't he adorable?!

next up was this Vera Bradley bag...

it was picked out by 13 year old Jordan (who is also a repeat customer)...her mom sent me the link to the VB Bowler bag, in Rasberry Fizz...it was my job to turn it into a cake ;0) it's marble cake, iced in butter cream, then covered in pink fondant & hand painted (with edible gel colors)

to be honest, i wish i had a few more hours to devote to the painting of this design...it was soooo detailed! i did my best to simplify it, but to still make it recognizable...i think i found a happy medium

i got an email & pic from this mother too...
"Oh my heck, the cake was beautiful! Jordan loved it and so did all of her friends. Next time I need to get some business cards from you to hand out because I think every person at the skating rink wanted you name and number! Here is a picture of Jordan with her cake and thanks again."

thx for looking!
