Cake Endeavours

For Molly's 4th birthday I made a three layer 8" chocolate cake with chocolate fudge filling covered in buttercream icing.  The flavour was mama's choice and the theme Molly's.  :) I printed off pictures of Elsa, Ana and Olaf and then laminated them, then dabbed some water on the back to "glue" them on to the cake.  I love this picture!  I think she liked her cake.  Happy Birthday Molly!

I love doing super hero cakes.  They are just so much fun!  Especially when I have the cookie cutters to help me along.  Everett's mom sent me a picture of what she'd like and I was able to duplicate it. This was a two layer 8" chocolate cake with chocolate fudge filling.  Covered in grey fondant with fondant decorations.  I invested in a 4", 6" and 8" metal round cookie cutter which makes doing the larger circles much easier to do.  Mr. T was kind enough to deliver this out to Newcastle tonight as Miss E and I leave early for our retreat. 

For Tim and his brother John's birthday this year I went with the traditional Perfect Chocolate Cake.  A 3 layer 8" chocolate cake with whipped cream filling covered in chocolate fudge icing.  This is the family favourite, so I couldn't go wrong.  I made the retro cake topper using Cricut Design Space.  The lettering and music notes are in black vinyl.  It's super easy to work with. Happy Birthday Tim and John!

Tessia messaged me with a picture of a previous lemon blueberry cake that I had made and booked it for her birthday.  I love a birthday girl who knows what she wants! This was a 3 layer 8" cake with lemon creamcheese icing.  Every time I do a repeat cake I try to decorate it differently from the others.  This time I cut thin slices of lemon to go around as swirls on the top of the cake. I also made a cake topper using Circut Design Space in dark blue, like blueberries. Printed it out three times and glued them together to make it extra thick. Happy Birthday Tessia!
