Cait & Colette's Phoenix Wedding Cake

I've known Cait since before she was born. She's a cousin of a cousin if that makes sense. For the longest time we were the only girls in the family and when our shared cousin Kim came along we were both super excited. So when she asked me to do her wedding cake it was so much fun to get to reconnect with her and to meet her fiancee.

For this three tiered cake the 10" was lemon with cream cheese filling, 8" was strawberry with cream cheese filling and 6" carrot cake for the top with cream cheese filling. On the front as per their request I drew on the Phoenix. It was so humid in the condo that I couldn't trace on the design fist so I ended up free-handing it.

Mr T and I delivered the cake to the venue along with cupcakes that I forgot to take a picture of. We weren't setting it up so we were able to drop everything off and go.

Fortunately Kim had her cell with her and was able to take a few pictures of the cake for me with the topper on it and them to me.

So adorable. I believe they bought this off of Etsy to go along with the theme of their wedding.

Congratulations Cait and Colette!

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...

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.

Dentist Cake

One of Mr. T's coworkers asked me to do this cake for her sister that had graduated to be a dentist. She asked that it has a dentist theme with money on it. This was a 6" chocolate cake covered in vanilla buttercream. You can tell how humid the day was with the shine on the lettering. The tooth, toothbrush and bills were made from fondant.
