Girls Just Wanna Have Fun



We made this cake for our friend Nataly's birthday.  She is very classy, fashionable, and girly so we thought making her a purse cake would be perfect...and of course it had to have pink.

Gone Fishin'






We made this cake for a friend who wanted to surprise her husband for his birthday who was returning from a fishing trip.

Crayon Box Cake

Beat L.A.





Spongebob is a HUGE giants fan! We made this cake for Jenny's birthday party at AT&T park.  The giants were playing the Dodgers that night so we themed the cake around the game.  Getting this cake to the ballpark was a very challenging task.  We had several offers of people wanting to buy this cake before we even got to our seats.  BEAT L.A.!!!!!!!!

Elmo



My cousin was turning 2 and he loves Elmo so we decided to make him his very own Elmo cake.

Go Giants!

Caden was turning 6 and wanted a Giants cake, so we made a giants jersey with his name and a number 6 on the back.

My friends and I love having game nights and we love playing scrabble.  For Liz's birthday we made this cake as a surprise and made all of the words on the board jokes or frequent sayings.  This cake was a huge hit.

This is the cake we made for the preschoolers who graduated and moved on to Kindergarten.  We have a Hawaiian themed celebration at the school and one of the parents got this cake as a special graduation cake.

Star Wars Cupcake Cake






We just love this cupcake cake pan!  This is one of the most fun cakes to decorate and we love making different designs for this style of cake.  We put this Star Wars one up because it is one of the most recent ones we have done.

Good things come in threes



These cakes were for two sisters and a brother who all have the same birthday. (no they are not triplets)  Even though these kids all share the same birthday they each got their own cake.  The first one is a rainbow cake with vanilla cake and chocolate frosting.  The second one is Stanford Football cake with vanilla cake and vanilla frosting.  The third one is a Taylor Swift cake with chocolate cake and chocolate frosting.

Pizza Cake

This cake was made for my sisters birthday because of her love for pizza and her love for cake.  We combined the two to make a pizza cake!

Safari Cake



We made this cake for Gavin's fifth birthday.  This is a chocolate sheet cake with green vanilla butter cream frosting made to look like grass.  We added the animals and his own special jeep to give this cake the added touch needed to go with the Safari themed party.

Carrot Cake



My carrot cake originates as a family recipe, it is frosted with a delicious cinnamon cream cheese frosting.

Cakes from our class







Here are a few of the cakes that we worked on while we were taking our classes.  These classes are where we learned to do butter cream decorations and later we learned how to work with fondant.  We are very pleased with all of the skills that we learned.  THANKS AGAIN LISA!!!!!

Strawberry Short Cake





My cousin Paula requested this cake for her birthday so we also call it "the pauley cake."  It is a vanilla cake with fresh strawberries in between the layers and home made whipped cream frosting.  This cake quickly became a favorite among family and friends.
