Three Cheers for Cake!




This cake brought back memories from my childhood! I loved to cheer and loved making this cake for Alysse. It is an Oreo cookie cake with a berry Oreo cookie filling. It is frosted with vanilla butter cream and decorated with fondant stars, polka dots and pom poms. It is topped with a modeling chocolate sculpture of a cheering Alysse! Super fun and girlie!

July is full of birthdays in our family. My beloved sister-in-law and my husband's birthday are a week apart so we celebrated them together this year. For Brana, I created a vanilla cake with raspberry lemon butter cream filling with a chocolated ganache poured frosting with fresh raspberry accents. My husband wanted our family crest on a cake, so I made a amaretto bavarian cream cake with buttercream frosting and made the family crest out of fondant. Lots of sweets for my sweeties!!!

Elephants on Parade!







My very good friend is having a girl and her new room is decorated with elephants, so I used them for inspiration for her baby shower. I created the cake based on a piece of art work used in the baby's nursery. It was a vanilla pound cake with raspberry lemon zest butter cream with a fondant elephant and ribbon. So cute and soooo good!

The elephant cupcakes were favors for the guests. I personally loved them!

On the Cowboy's 40!


How about them Cowboys! My good friend's husband is a HUGE life-long Dallas Cowboys fan and he celebrated his 40th birthday in May. We decided to make 40 the number of the game and highlighted the 40 yard line and I made a sculture of a Dallas Cowboy out of modeling chocolate and fondant and then painted "Moore 40" on the jersey with edible paint. The cake needs a tall glass of milk or big scoop of vanilla ice cream! It is an All-american chocolate cake with chocolated ganache filling. Yum! The outside is vanilla butter cream and details in homemade fondant.

Lollipop Barbie Cake






This year for Adelina's 3rd birthday she wanted both Barbie and Dora... so I created a Barbie cake based on the "Lollipop Happy Birthday Barbie" doll we gave her as part of her gift. Then I made lollipop cupcakes with her monogram on them and finally Dora cupcakes. They were all Oreo cookie cakes with vanilla buttercream and homemade fondant. This cake was extremely fun to make since I have all boys and I am a girlie girl! Go pink! Her mom and I got swept away by the lollipop Barbie theme and made lollipop centerpieces to match the cake and rest of the "Barbie" decor.

Henry's Baptism



We baptised our youngest son, Henry David, on Sunday and of course need the perfect cake. This is a white cake with vanilla buttercream with homemade fondant in cornflower blue and silver to match the invitations I sent family for this blessed event. I got in a bit of a hurry on this one, but I think it still turned out well.
