Family Guy Stewie cake
Family Guy Stewie cake - I love Stewie so this one was fun for me! Sorry for the swear. I know I have some people who look at this with their kids. I don't have my editing software on my computer anymore since it crashed. :)

Ganesha cake
Ganesha cake - I was so excited for the challenge of this one. I simply love cakes that are out of the realm of what I normally do. It is so fun for me to go outside of my box. I loved the detail I got to do on this cake and the reaction was really so much fun. Great people to work with. The cake was lemon with raspberry cream cheese, but there was much debate on whether or not anyone could cut into it to taste it. :) So fun!
Bright colored purse cake
Bright colored purse cake - This one was a lot of fun for me. My friend had taken her daughter to the Farmer's Market earlier in the month and she had bought this adorable purse there. We had already decided to do a purse cake for her birthday, so I thought it would be especially fitting to do a cake just like her actual purse. She was so excited. It made my day.

Best Birthday cake ever
Best Birthday cake ever - I named this cake not because I think it is gorgeous or anything like that. I named it because it was for my big sister who I love very much. She was just diagnosed with Stage 5 gallbladder cancer, so I told her next years will be even better if she can stay with us. I am in Phoenix so I had help with this one. It was a labor of love. My mom made all the ribbon roses and the loops for the bow and my sister-in-law made all the daisies and the cute bags. Oh, and the real necklace that is on there. :) I love my helpers and my sister and hope this brought her joy. I love you Jan!

Sports Themed Cookie Bouquet
Sports Themed Cookie Bouquet - So my friend contacted me on Facebook and told me that she had been looking into cookie bouquets and had discovered that they were crazy expensive. She asked if I had ever thought about doing them. I have, but have never had the time or reason to try it. So I decided this was as good a time to try as any. It was not perfect, but I learned a lot and can't wait to do another one some day.

Happy "Bee" Day cake
School Craft Fair Halloween cookies
School Craft Fair Halloween cookies - I thought I had one more day to do these than I did, so they were super last minute cookies. :) Because of that, I only remembered to photograph half of them as actual cookies and have no pictures of them in their finished, wrapped up state. But I thought I would at least post what I have.

Elsa Paris cake
Elsa Paris cake - This for for the cutest 60 year old lady. She is the mom of a friend of mine and I swear she still looks 30. She loves to travel the world, but Paris is her favorite. I am posting pictures of all sides because I had so much fun with these postcards. I really like when I get to hand draw all that stuff on. So much fun!
Gronckle cake
Gronkle cake - I was so stinking excited for this one all weekend! This is my favorite dragon on "How to Train your Dragon". I think he is hilarious. So when Sarah said, "he likes dragons, specifically the Gronckle", I knew this is what I wanted to do. Sculpted character cakes are my absolute favorite because they have so much personality. And this one in particular is much cuter in person. :) It is a mix of chocolate and lemon cakes.

Xbox 360 Madden Avatar cake
Xbox 360 Madden Avatar cake - This was made for one of the funniest boys I know. :) He always plays Madden on the 360, loves Avatar (the cartoon Last Airbender variety) and is going to serve a mission for his church in Guatemala. So I tried to incorporate all that into this cake. It was a lot of fun.
Fiber Optic Cable Medusa Head cake
Fiber Optic Cable Medusa Head cake - Ok...so doing cakes for my hubby's work friends is always interesting. :) He came home and said, "It's Phil's birthday tomorrow....can you do a cake?" I said "Sure, what's he into?" He said, "I don't know. Phil doesn't really share much with the group. But he is our cable guy." My first thought was....Phil the Cable Guy...Git R Done cake...but Alan said that just didn't fit Phil. So my mind was spinning...maybe a little too fast...I have been watching a lot of mythology movies lately, Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief, Clash of the Titans, stuff like that. So suddenly I get this image in my head of a Medusa head with fiber cable instead of snakes. I giggled a little at the thought, then I giggled a lot. So I decided it had to be done. I decided I would do Phil in stone with cable hair.
He was a little unstable at first, so I kept putting him in the freezer to chill out and every time I would open the freezer for a minute and see him in there...I would laugh out loud. Man I had a fun night...

Orvin Wedding cake
Orvin Wedding cake - When I first started with this design, I thought I was going to hate it. The more I took it from the original and made it my own, the more I really loved it. The flowers are all handmade fondant flowers and they took me all night, but I think they add such a unique element. I really enjoyed this one!
