Dora Cake...

Cakes for my own children's parties are always so rushed! There's so many other things going on, that I always run out of the time I need to do a great job for them, too. This cake had a rough beginning, but I think I managed to save it pretty well after decorating...





A teacher once told me that being a professional is not always about making the perfect cake, but about learning how to hide the mistakes. I like to think that by that measure, my professionalism grew leaps and bounds with this cake!

Princess Cake...

Here is a cake I made for my daughters birthday party. I ran out of time to finish the topper and other details, but it was still cute and helped set the scene for her princess party perfectly!


Cowboy Cake...

And here, is my crown jewel (so far!) It's for a little cowboy's first birthday party. I got the idea for this cake from the internet, and then changed a few things to make it work better for our situation. I'm so happy with how it turned out and really look forward to making more big fun cakes like this!


Picture Cake

Here's a cute cake I threw together pretty quick. It was simply for my baby to destroy in her one year old pictures. Turned out perfectly for what I needed!
