French Poodle
















I made this cake for a really great friend of mine that her daugther, Kayla's birthday was French Poodle theme. She loves the episode of Wonder Pets when they save the French Poodle from the Eiffel tower. Kayla is really cute because she asked me, "Are you going to make me a Pluto cake?" I was like, I thought you wanted a Poodle cake? Ana told me she can't really say Poodle so she says Pluto. Its so cute & funny, so I told her, "Yes I will make you your "Pluto" cake.

Lady Liberty
















Happy Anniversary to Det var så!!!
My cousin Ivania had a house warming\4th of July party. 3rd of July marks my one year anniversary for making cakes. So I told my cousin that I would make her a 4th of July cake but I wanted to make it special because it was my annivarsary. What better idea to celebrate a anniversary than the Statue of Liberty - well a cute on at least :D This was also my first time using rice crispie treats to make a 3D cake. I'm really proud of myself, here's to more annivarsaries & cakes!!!

Wrapped in Glory
















This cake is Wilton inspired. I wanted to make a cake for my family for the 4th of July. I love to look at Wilton's site for inspiration & ideas. I didn't want to make a huge cake, because I knew that there would be other desserts there. It was a hit, all my family liked it & I was glad I was able to make it. Funny though, one of my cousins that just found out that I'm making cakes asked, "Did you make this?" My brother joking said, "Nah, she got it at Target". I had to laugh.

World Cup 2010
















This cake was a request for the world cup game; Mexico vs. Argentina. Client just told me he wanted a soccer game with Mexico's jersey somewhere on the cake. My first thought was to incorporate the world cup - WOW I did it!! I could not believe I was able to replicate the 2010 World Cup logo. The client was just amazed & extremely happy. I was glad to be asked to make something for a worldwide event & happy to add it to my portfolio :D

Luau Party
















I was wanted to make a Luau cake. I got the chance to make one. I enjoyed making this cake. The ideas where just pouring as I was creating the cake. If I had more room on the cake, I would have added more stuff. I just loved the way it cake out. I am very proud of the way my tiki mask, it was all free hand :D All strings of hula dress were hand rolled!! Bottom of cake is vanilla, top is chocolate, hula girl & pineapple are golden yellow cake, frosted with cream cheese covered with MMF.

Sleeping Beauty
















This cake was also another cake that I made with just having a steak knife, pizza cutter & my hands to work with. It was for my cousin's little girl that she loves Sleeping Beauty. She had sent me a picture of what she wanted. BUT when I saw it I didn't like it. Sooo, I made it my own & this was the outcome of it. I made everything except for, I did cheat on the letters ;} Dress of cake is chocolate & bottom is yellow butter, frosted with cream cheese topped with MMF.

Hello Kitty
















This cake was hard to make. I have all my decorating tools in Danmark. I was home in the USA. Some people contacted me about cakes. I said yes of course, not realizing that I have NO TOOLS!! All I had to work with was a steak knife, pizza cutter & my hands. I just love the outcome of the cake. Head is chocolate, body is vanilla covered with cream cheese frosting topped with MMF fondant.
