Happy Birthday Nana!

We were lucky enough to have my Nana here to celebrate her Birthday this year!

What a fun time it was, and a cake in her honor~

Happy almost first Birthday Breck!

My sample 11x17 cake for my little nephew, tried to copy the invite they designed :)  It looks better "in person" still trying to figure out how to take a good picture!

Ahoy!

Just tried this one for fun BUT I tried a real butter cream frosting, not one that was just shortening. I did not have the same consistency at all and was hard to work with. So, I will stick to the old recipe for decorating and then use this one on a cake that is more for taste than for looks!

Birthday cake for Megan

I had fun trying this out. The pics dont show the cake very well but it turned out pretty cute. Happy Birthday Megan!

Level One Done!

Okay, I finished level one and got my little certificate.. Keep in mind there are three levels and then fondont and gum paste. So there is still lots to learn. Last night we did roses. I am not a fan of roses on cakes but it was fun to learn how to do them. The people in class are amazing and talented. I feel like the wanna be in there but we all laugh and have fun. There were 13 people in the first class and by last night there were only 5 including me.

Another practice...

My Nephews are turning 14 and I had a hard time being creative with a cake for guys. So, a free hand cake had to do. Lesson learned: space out letters/design BEFORE starting :)
