Cake Endeavours

The wedding theme was Great Gatsby.  I found this headpiece on Amazon that would work perfectly for the theme.  I did a very simple white fondant covered cake with some art deco lines. Cake: 6" 3-layer cookies n' cream cake with buttercream filling.  Cupcake Tower: Black Velvet with cream cheese icing Lemon with cream cheese icing Chocolate with vanilla icing Cookies n' Cream with vanilla icing All topped with some gold dragees and dust Congratulation Courtney & Jordon! 

This was a super fun cake to make for one of my favourite people!  His theme requests are always the best.  I made the McDonald's sign using my cricut machine and I love how it came out.  For the rest of the decorations Mr T kindly went to the drive-through for me to get a happy meal.  Miss E ate the chicken nuggets so the box was empty as was the drink container.  However, the fries were the real deal.  I wasn't worried about them spoiling since they last forever in the wild.  The most challenging part of this cake was getting the icing to the vibrant red it needed, but I succeeded.  Woohoo!  Cake: 6" 3-layer carrot cake with cream cheese filling

I was asked to make some muffins for my cousin Courtney's bridal shower. Of course I had to go extra with the flavours I chose and made them extra large.   Here are the recipes I used: 1.  Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins 2.  Cheddar and Bacon Cornbread Muffins 3.  Caramel Apple Buttermilk Muffins I will be making these all again! Yes, I even made a savoury muffin.  I know Miranda Hart frowns upon this, ha! But I do enjoy a savoury muffin!  Especially cornbread.
