Mason's Among Us Cake

I haven't had a cake to do in months and this past weekend I have two. Every time I feel anxious about doing multiple cakes but then once I'm in the middle of it all, I remember how much I like to do it and how fortunate I am that I get to contribute to making someone's day special.

Mason's request for the theme was Among Us, a popular video game. Fortunately, Miss E as always, was able to educate me on what it was. I asked what Mason's favourite colour was and his answer was cyan?! He did clarify that it's light blue.

As for the little guys, I have no idea what they are called, I saw on other cakes that they had all kinds of different "hats" on them. I chose a party hat for the pink one, a sprout for the yellow, a banana peel for the green, and an apple for the blue one. I think the red one is a dead one? I'm not sure. Ha!

This cake was an 8" two layer vanilla cake with chocolate filling and butter cream icing.

Mason gave the cake two thumbs up.

My Little Pony Pull Apart Cupcake Cake

For this "cake" I made two dozen vanilla cupcakes and arranged them on the cake board in the shape of the rainbow and clouds. To make sure the cupcakes didn't move I added a dab of icing on the bottom of each cupcake. It's not that often that I get to dye icing, or six different colours at once. You can get a really good bicep workout, Miss E was kind enough to lend her figurines as models for the picture. The clouds piped out perfectly. The rainbow was a little more difficult. Next time I would put a base coat on the cupcakes to help keep the top coat more level and easier to pipe over.

Carrot Cake for July Birthdays

To celebrate my dad and brother's birthdays this year we went up to my parents' trailer to have a campfire dinner; hotdogs over the fire with a side of corn on the cob. So good! To finish off the celebration I made one of the family favourites, carrot cake with cream cheese icing. This was a 3 layer six inch cake with lots of cream cheese icing. Hopefully, it was enough for Geoff this time.

60th Jack Daniels Birthday Cake

These types of cakes are so much fun to do. Over the top goodness! Especially, when the original plan was to use airplane size bottles of Jack Daniel's instead of one 300mL bottle. When Mr T went to the LCBO he was told that they longer sell them, at least as this location, due to high theft. The next smallest size available was the 300mL bottle; though I doubt the birthday boy was disappointed! This was a 3 layer chocolate 8" cake with Bailey's buttercream topped off with Hershey pieces, mini chocolate chip cookies, Ferrero Rocher and Whoppers sitting on top of the chocolate ganache.
