Come to the Love Show and Eat My Cake!


Matt and I are participating in the Love Show this year on Valentines Day. There are going to be a plethora of amazing local artists. Matt is doing a giant oil painting and I am doing a crazy cake....but it is a surprise! So you will have to come and check it out!

The Penguin Cake


I made this little cake for my sister's 17th birthday get-away to Big Bear. She really loves penguins and her school colors are green and gold. She loved it!

The Topsy Turvy Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum Cake




Something a little more traditional this time. We have never really done a simple tiered cake before and we have never attempted a topsy turvy cake before. I have also never made little figurines out of gum paste. New challenges! We rose to them gladly! It was a fun cake to make and we think it came out pretty great. I made the tweedles one night and had so much fun paying attention to the little details, like their little hats and bow ties. This cake was a surprise for a super cute girl, Paige's 23rd birthday and when we delivered it, she was very excited and surprised!

The Elvis Aaron Presley Cake






The Elvis cake we made for our friend Jackie's birthday this past weekend was quite a challenge! It was our hardest cake thus far. Half way through we were feeling skeptical that we could pull this cake off...but somehow we finished him and we were pleased with our portrayal of fat Elvis.

The Jesus Christ Cake




We really pushed ourselves this time . And we are pleased with the outcome. Our good friend, Korin asked us to do her birthday cake and she had a unique request.....Crucified Jesus. So we took the challenge and got to work. He is our favorite cake so far. So Happy Birthday Korin and Happy Birthday to Jesus!

The Basketball Cake


This cake was made as my nephew's birthday gift this year. Obviously, he is into basketball. He really loved it. And it was fun to make something boy-ish.

I guess it is my turn!


I figured I would just make my own birthday cake this year. If anything, it is more practice! And I thought it came out pretty cute.
