Elegant Rhinestone Wedding cake

Elegant Rhinestone Wedding cake - I wasn't sure about the design on this one when I was first given the task, but I ended up just loving it. Thanks you guys!

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and smash cake

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and smash cake - Normally I dislike plastic figures on cakes, I feel like it is cheating, but I didn't have time to do fondant characters, so there you go. :)

Jovi Birthday cake

Jovi Birthday cake - For the ultimate Bon Jovi fan who named her adorable son Jovi. :)

Vintage Paper Flower Wedding Cake

Vintage Paper Flower Wedding Cake - The middle layer is rice paper that I hand cut. It took about 5 hours just to complete that one layer. I found out later that Martha Stewart makes a punch. DOH!

2nd place Ivory Homes Gingerbread House

2nd place Ivory Homes Gingerbread House - This was super fun and SUPER time consuming. I don't know if I will ever do this again. It was crazy!

Codey cake - this on was for Jan's cute nephew who I have adopted. :-) I figured she would have paid for his cake as a wedding gift, so it was my honor to do this one. Thanks for letting me be a part of your day you guys. I know Jan was there with us.

Red & Black Wendy wedding

Red & Black Wendy wedding - My cute Wendy friend's wedding cake. So happy to see her so happy!!!

Pink and black floral buttercream

Pink and black floral buttercream - Those of you who know me well know that I HATE buttercream cakes. The fondant is easy to peel off and I use a generous layer of buttercream underneath anyway, but this bride insisted. :-) And everyone knows you don't argue with the bride. :-) I still love how it turned out even though it stressed me out.

Executive Secretary cake

Executive Secretary cake - Funny story about this one....I was asked to do this for some amazing Executive Secretaries in my LDS Stake. I have been a member of the church my whole life, I know Executive Secretaries to the Stake Presidency are boys, but for some reason I heard secretary and made him a girl. Luckily, I figured it out before it actually made it to them and gave it a quick switcheroo. :)
