Happy Birthday Grandma - 90 years old!

Grandma turned 90 years old on April 9th, it´s a milestone! I made her a little rum cake; it was a little challenge not being in my own kitchen, but it turned out moist and yummy! Grandma still cooks and looks great for her age, I hope I can look that good and and be as healthy as her if I reach 90. But, I am not really sure I want to get up there.

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Cinco de Mayo Cakes

This was an order my boss placed for a birthday party. The birthday girls were twins and the cakes needed to coordinate. I never did a Cinco de Mayo cake theme before but, in my research, I saw a lot of sombreros on cakes or just general Cinco de Mayo party decorations. So, the main decoration is the orange hat or sombrero and some red peppers made out of fondant and painted with red candy paint.

The square cake was a vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream icing. The round cake was a chocolate cake, also with vanilla butter cream icing. I think it looks very festive, it was quite of work b/c I had to break it down into a few different days and finish it up the night before. But, I was pleased with the results and it was fun to make it. I just hope the birthday girls also liked!

Customer Testimonial

Just wanted to tell you the cakes were a HUGE hit!!! Everyone swooned over the decorations! I served myself one slice of chocolate and a 1/4 piece of vanilla, intending to only to 'taste' each flavor. I found myself devouring the whole thing and scraping the icing from the plate! They were DELICIOUS. - Sooooo moist! And the icing, perfection.

Gift Box Cake

I made this this cake for my boss's birthday; she loved and so did I. It's great to make someone smile when looking at something you made; plus I had so much fun doing it! It was a chocolate cake with coconut butter cream icing. Ans, for this icing I used coconut milk instead of water or just coconut extract; it made the icing very light and fluffy - delicious!

Then, decorated the outside of the cake with colored fondant; I only use Satin Fine fondant. See steps on how to use decorate a cake with fondant
