Yum Scrum Cakes

This cake was for my sweet momma! I am always interested in trying new techniques and I have been waiting to use the technique of painting on flowers for quite awhile. So I thought my mom would enjoy this design. To do this technique, you pipe on an outline of a flower (or any shape), then you take a wet paint brush and gently pull the icing into the center to get the painted on look. I then took gumpaste flowers and placed them in the center of each painted flower!

Here's a fun, girly Birthday Cake! I did three different color polka dots, as well as three different textures. The texture of the polka dots doesn't really show well in the picture but it turned out super cute!

A Zoo themed party -- what fun!!!! This cake is for a 3 year old's birthday, Abby. The top zoo animals are represented on this cake. There is the Giraffe, Zebra, Lion and Elephant! I hope that the party is fun and not too crazy :)

It's always fun working with friends! I designed this wedding cake for a friend from High school, Alicia Perry! She is now the new Mrs. Beaver! Congrats Alicia & Ryan! I especially LOVE the gold details.  We did a simple white base color with very subtle gold shimmer scroll work and then a very metallic gold fondant ribbon around the base of each tier. The florist also placed red roses all over the cake. It turned out beautiful!

Who doesn't love a good challenge.....................I know I do! My husband's boss was celebrating his 50th birthday so his wife emailed me and asked if I could replicate at 1948 red Ford Coupe Car! I was a little hesitant to say yes, but my hubby encouraged me to do it. One thing is for sure, I couldn't have done it without his help. He is in the architecture field so he used his amazing skills to carve this cake into a car. He did amazing. I then covered the cake with fondant and and added fondant details! I love how it turned out.

 This cake turned out sooo cute! I love working on 'themed' cakes.........it makes for a fun, satisfying challenge! I made the 'Dorothy' shoes out of gumpaste and adorned them with red cake sparkles.  And you just can't have a Wizard of Oz cake without a yellow brick road.  What's extra special about  this cake, that you can't see, is that the inside is rainbow colored cake.  There are four layers of cake within each tier, and each are a different color of the rainbow: red, yellow, green and blue! I wish I could cut into the cake to see how it looks, but I guess I will just have to wait for a picture ;)

I had the privilege of working with my of my favorite customers, Hannah Sultemeier! Hannah was hosting a guy-girl wedding shower for some dear friends of hers. So we wanted to merge the two genders in this cake! The bottom half of the cake is detailed in a masculine plaid pattern and the top half screams 'girl' with a fun floral motif! I hope the bride & groom liked the cake!
