7/25/2010 - Max's Baptism cake


I was honored to be chosen by good friends Laura and Brett to be their son Max's Godmother. 


Of course I offered to make the cake!  It was a simple vanilla cake with buttercream icing decorated with royal icing flowers and a keepsake pewter cross.  I forgot how much I love working with Royal Icing....hadn't had a chance to make any flowers in over two years until this cake.


Lesson's learned from this cake:

When working with box cake mixes, stick to Duncan Hines...don't settle for any else!

7/24/2010 - Cupcakes - Just because


Had some extra batter from making the next cake I'm going to post and extra frosting from the previous cake so threw together some cupcakes just because.

7/17/10 - Diane and Dana's Birthday


Simple white cake with chocolate buttercream frosting.

7/3/2010 - Fourth of July Jello "cake"

This cake is not actually a cake, it's Jello covered with cool-whip and fresh fruit!
