Birthday Girls

Last weekend I had two cakes to deliver to two ladies at my church that were celebrating birthdays on the same day. One was a semi surprise ordered by a husband for his sweet wife. Wouldn't you be happy if your husband got you this for your birthday?

The only request I had from the husband was to make it girly so I knew exactly what I wanted to do. This swirl design has become one of my favorites by far. I think its so pretty and looks great in any color combination. So to give this one an extra girly touch I went with pink and white and added a fondant bow and "H" that were dusted with...you guessed it Luster Dust! (I love the stuff) I just wish the camera would pick it up better
This was white cake filled with chocolate cream cheese and iced with classic butter cream.
Happy Birthday Heidi!!!
The other cake for this day was a really simple design but the flavor combo is so delish, it makes up for the simple design.


Chocolate cake filled with raspberry jam and iced with chocolate butter cream...YUM!
Happy Birthday Tami!!!!




This little cutie was for my sister in law Carrie. Her birthday was the week before but since I was busy with cakes for the Wical Wedding her cake had to be moved back..better late than never I guess :)
I did a 6" mini cake and used cake wraps to create this design. Cake wraps are a really thin edible "paper" that have a printed pattern on them. You simply ice your cake then wrap the paper around and add your border. I added the "C" on top just because I love personalizing and monogrammed things. This cake wrap was perfect for Carrie because it reminded me of one of her favorite things...Vera Bradley!
Happy Birthday Carrie!!!!!!!

  1. Wow, these cakes are so cute. I would love to have the cake for my girl’s fairy themed birthday because you exactly know how to do the themed cakes right! The party would be hosted at one of the local venues in NYC. I need some help with the custom décor too so might hire a party planner for that.
