catch up cakes...take 2...

a Hello Kitty cake, designed by the birthday girl herself! Juana came by & we drew out her design...she was specific about the colors & shapes...& was thrilled with how the finished product came out...

100% edible...rainbow cake, iced in buttercream...the kitty head is rice krispie treats...everything is decorated/covered in regular & dark chocolate fondant (no black coloring used on this cake!)

the best part was the inside...love the rainbow effect!

i also had some pooh cupcakes to make for a baby shower...

yellow cupcakes, iced in pink buttercream...then topped with fondant pooh faces & bees...

make that 2 baby showers that day...the next was for my cousin's wife...they're expecting a lil girl on Valentine's Day - so went with that whole color scheme...

Aryn's cake & matching cupcakes were all white cake, iced in a light pink icing...

the buttons & bow topper are made from fondant

i recently was honored to donate a cake & cupcakes to a local lady that's battling stage 4 brain cancer...her 28th birthday isn't until April, but her doctors aren't expecting her to make it until then...her best friend threw her a special party to celebrate Rachel's life & asked for a sunflower themed cake & cupcakes...

they were fudge chip & iced in buttercream...accented with fondant sunflowers

i helped a friend surprise her husband on his birthday, which is also their anniversary...he used to drive a derby car, so his wife had me make a replica of it for his cake...it was red velvet cake, iced in buttercream...topped with a rice krispie treat car - meant to look beat up & dirty...

& lastly, came this planes, trains & automobiles cake for 3yo Branson...it's one of my new favs!

the bottom tier was fudge chip & the top tier strawberry...all iced in buttercream...the buildings, & all modes of transportation are handmade from fondant...another 100% edible cake!

here's a message i got from Branson's aunt about how much he loved his cake...

"Branson LOVED his cake! I would pick him up and he'd say I want to go look at my cake...and he'd say airplane, school bus, choo choo! Then, 5 minutes later...I want to go look at my cake! So we just stood there staring at his cake. Then i uploaded the pics and he said THATS MY CAKE! It was precious! Aimee (Branson's mom) said it was the best one you've done yet!"

thx for looking!
