BIRTHDAY WHISKEY LOVIN

A great great friend of my sister of law and mine just celebrated his 26th birthday, &for everyone who knows our friend Kyle, you know that Whiskey Jameson and him go hand in hand! It is absolutely without a doubt his favorite drink.  So for his birthday cake we had to create something fantastic starring his favorite booze.  Determined to capture the WOW factor, the cake was custom carved into the shape of a bottle, and decorated to look like just like his favorite label.  All homemade marshmallow fondant, hand cut/designed decorations..the WOW factor was absolutely captured in this spectacular replica.  He was SO ridiculously thrilled with his cake he didnt stop talking about it for DAYS!  Even then he went and posted a picture of it with a huge dedication to the work we did onto the Official Jameson Facebook page!! Beyond thrilled with how happy the cake made him..its EXACTLY why I LOVE what I do!!

A PURRFECT CELEBRATION!

As a congratulations for one of my darling coworkers graduating as a Radiological Technician-I created a cake representing not only the inspiring event but her outrageous personality too! None other than a LEOPARD PRINT cake adorned with her favorite colors, stars and an inspiring quote "Nothing Happens Unless First A Dream" would fit the occasion.  The inside was a Vanilla Cake, with Chocolate &Yellow cake leopard spots.  Flashy fun and SO unexpected by all the girls, the cake was a total hit!  Congratulations again Liz..Keep Dreaming Big!

I DO BELIEVE IN FAIRIES..&PETERPAN!

One of my FAVORITE orders so far, a coworker asked me to create and bake cupcakes for her niece's 5th Birthday Party.  The theme? Peter Pan for the boys and Tinkerbell for the girls!  Being a huge Disney Fan this order was a total pleasure and just way too much fun to design! I came up with various toppers that represented each theme for the boys and the girls, and went to work! For Tinkerbell, there were Fairy Wings, Tinkerbell's Shoes, Cute little Bows and Flowers.  And for the boys, Peter Pan's Hat, A Pirate Skull Flag, Swords & (my favorite..) Captain Hooks Hook! I couldn't be any happier with how cute all these cupcakes looked..not to mention how delicious they tasted!

A BIRTHDAY PRESCRIPTION!

My dear friend Casey Moran came to me requesting a very unique cake for a friend of his; he needed a birthday cake that celebrated not only his friends extreme fashion sense, but congratulated him on his acceptance into Pharmaceutical School! This cake was covered in a Louis Vuitton inspired print, Gloss Black Painted Fondant 'Ray Ban' Sunglasses, &my favorite piece; the hand designed/painted Custom Pharmaceutical Label that reads his personalized prescription - "Eat One Slice Twice Daily Until Gone- Red Velvet 500mg".  It was so much fun creating this very unique cake!
