A bear cake for Zoe!

A few weeks ago, a good friend of mine asked me to make a birthday cake for her daughter’s 1st birthday party. I was excited to be able to contribute to her special day!

Her mom decided on a pink and brown party with a teddy bear theme. Adorable!

To fit in with the theme, we decided on a three tier cake with a 3d bear on top and a small smash cake for Zoe to tear into. (Which was super fun to watch!)

Here is a picture of the final result:

And a pic of the smash cake:


The tiers covered in chocolate fondant were chocolate cake with banana cream filling. The tier covered in pink fondant was white cake with banana cream filling. The bear on top was also made of white cake. Polka dots and the 1 on top were also made of fondant.


Happy 1st Birthday Zoe! We had a great time at your party!

Mod Turtle

A friend of mine asked me to make a birthday cake for her son's 1st birthday party this weekend. She wanted to do a Mod Turtle birthday theme and asked for a 3d turtle as a topper.

Here is the final product:

This was a white cake filled with whipped cream frosting, iced with whipped cream and covered in fondant with fondant accents. The turtle on top was also made of white cake and covered in fondant. The letters on top were piped on with whipped cream frosting. It was all edible!

I also made the birthday the birthday boy a smash cake to enjoy. The smash cake was white cake with iced with whipped cream frosting with a fondant turtle on top and fondant polka dots around the sides. After I delivered the cake, I also added the the wording on top with blue whipped cream. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture of the final product.

I really enjoyed making this cake and hope that everyone loved it as much as I did.



Happy 1st birthday Ryan! I hope you had a great party!

It"s a boy!

I had the pleasure of making a baby shower cake for one of my best friends this weekend. She knew that she was having a boy so her sister's set out on a blue, green, and brown shower theme.

We talked about a few styles of cake and ultimately decided on a more modern cake look that would match the party decor. Below is the final product!



This cake was a vanilla cake that was tinted blue. The top tier had strawberry filling and the bottom tier was filled with banana cream. Yummy! The polka dots and stripes were made of fondant and the bow was made of chocolate and fondant. Yummy!

Minnie Mouse

My neighbors say they are tortured by seeing me carry all these cakes out my door and never being able to have a taste of any of them. To solve the problem, they ordered a cake for their daughter's 3rd birthday.

She just told me that they were having a minnie birthday and to make a cake that would fit in with that theme. So this is what I was able to do for them.


This cake was a french vanilla with 1/2 strawberry and 1/2 banana filling. The frosting around the base was whipped cream and the polka dots, 3, ears, and bow were made of fondant. I hear the birthday girl really enjoyed it! Happy Birthday, Emma!
