Spongebob Krabby Patty cake

Sponge Bob Krabby Patty cake - This was for a cute two year old little girl who loves Spongebob. The other two Spongebob cakes I have done I used gumpaste plaques, so this time I wanted to try my hand at sculpting the characters. It was so much fun!

Silvermist Water Fairy cake

Silvermist Water Fairy cake - My big sis asked me to do this cake for her hubby's cousin who has been one of her biggest cheerleaders. So of course I had to do it. I didn't have time to do anything big, but I hope she loves it just the same.

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.

Quick Lego cake

Quick Lego cake - this was a quick cake for my friend Kim. Sometimes I really like just these simple quick cakes. They are a breath of fresh air. :)

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!

Tigger cake

Tigger cake - This was a very last minute cake for a one year old boy and I didn't have a lot of time to make it as perfect as I wanted, but I hope they liked it. :) It was spice cake with cream cheese icing, the tail was rice cereal treats.

Winnie the Pooh "Pooh Sticks" cake

Winnie the Pooh "Pooh Sticks" cake - This was for a friend of mine. Her little girl specifically wanted the "Pooh sticks" scene. I always get so nervous to do such iconic characters, but I really have a good time with them. The cake was banana sour cream cake with cream cheese icing.

Bamboo Scroll Wedding cake

Bamboo Scroll Wedding cake - This bride sent me photos of what her table settings were going to look like and I created a cake to match. I really love doing cakes this way. The reception was at the Union Station in Ogden and was a rustic, beautiful setting for this cake.

Owl Baby Shower Cookies


Owl Baby Shower Cookies - My son's teacher asked me to make her some cookies for a baby shower. She told me just to do whatever and I had just seen the most adorable owl cookies online. So I decided that's what I would do. I have loved doing all these cookies lately. :)

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

Happy "Bee" Day cake - This one was for a 40th birthday. I actually made it on my own birthday. :) It is amazing how many people I discovered share my day. Each year I get at least a couple requests on this day.

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!
