416 Vapes Celebration Cake

Woohoo!  It's my 300th blog post.  This the most I have ever been dedicated to writing about anything.  I've never been good at keeping a journal or anything like that.  I am so proud of myself for keeping this up.  It's such an amazing reference guide for me to back through.  I never dreamed that I would stretch this far out of my comfort zone in the world of decorating and try so many new techniques and recipes, even making up my own.  Who knows what crazy things my family, friends and co-workers will ask me to do next.  This is by no way a challenge that I am throwing out there!

Anyway, today was a very busy day for me in the world of baking and cake decorating.  I did all my baking the night before so that the cakes could get nice and cold in the fridge overnight.  When I have multiple cakes to do in one day, I try to do most of the steps for each cake at the same time. I put the cakes on their boards, do the filling and crumb coat of icing.  Before I went off to finish the Mad Science cake I did the Ecig Flavourium log and the 416 logo to set aside and harden.


While Mr T was off delivering the first cake I got work on finishing this cake.  This decorating went so much smoother thankfully.  I had about an hour to get 'er done.  This was a two layer 9 x 13 chocolate cake with chocolate filling.


Maria wanted the cake to look like a parcel.  Near the end of decorating I still didn't know how to deal with the top right corner.  So, I made up my own Canadian stamp.  Of course I did flowers, there was no way I was going to attempt doing the Canadian flag.  I think 1 in 1000 kids could get to look right on a drawing without tracing it!  I never could get it to look right in school.  After I put on the stamp, I still needed something more. I added the cancellation stamp.  I love how this turned out.

Miss E helped out in her usual fashion of licking the beaters and the bowl.  She only goes for the chocolate icing mind you.

80th Birthday Cake and Cupcakes

For this 80th birthday I was asked to make 6" cake and 8 dozen cupcakes.  I was told that the birthday girl liked flowers so that's what I went with for the decorating. I absolutely love how this cake turned out.  It was a two layer 6" cookies n' cream (this time I didn't forget any ingredients!) cake.  I covered it in pale blue fondant, with soft pink and white flowers.  I made a large three layer rose the night before with some leaves so they would have enough time to dry out.  For "80", I cut out two of each number out so I could hide the cocktail stick between the two layers.  I had just enough of the soft pink ribbon to go around the bottom of the cake to finish it off. Now, for the cupcakes I did raspberry cupcake with raspberry mascarpone icing, lemon cupcake with lemon cream cheese icing, caramel cupcake with salted caramel icing topped with caramel sauce and cookies n' cream cupcake with buttercream icing.  Two dozen of each went t...

WWE Birthday Cake

 To decorate this cake I covered it in vanilla buttercream.  The sides I covered in black fondant. To hide the uneven edge of the fondant I added a red border around the top.  For the corners of the ring I used red bubble tea straws I had on hand wrapper with some DMC black floss and topped with black fondant.  Happy Birthday I cut out with fondant.  The WWE logo I printed off and backed it with a laminated piece of red card stock.  Tommy was cut out using my Cricut machine. Cake: 10" chocolate layer and vanilla layer with vanilla pudding filling.

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.
