Happy Birthday Victoria!

Victorias birthday was approaching and we needed to plan the perfect cake to show off a few of her favourite things.  Littlest Pet Show Figurines that is.  She was certain she wanted them on her cake.  So we created a cake to display just that!  A vanilla double layer cake with vanilla butter cream icing.  Her name and laced border in a deep purple decorated the cake. It was a perfect fit for a party.  
Happy Birthday Victoria!

A Pretty Pink Bow

That is exactly what this cake had!  A good friend wanted to bring her mom a special cake for her birthday, so to the design board we went.  There were several inspirations for this cake, but the one theme we waned to portray was to ensure it was classic and beautiful just like Rachel's mother.  Rachel who ultimately chose the design loves a modern look and so we incorporated that as well.  This large pink bow covered a vanilla cake with fresh vanilla buttercream icing.  It was surely a treat to put this design to work.

Celebrating With Pokemon and Friends

Katie has a great imagination and it was so fun to create a cake that she would love!  First things first was she needed a Pokemon cake.  The big decisions was, what friend would join "Pikachu" on the cake.  It was a easy decision for Katie the winner was 'Turtwig".  The bright colours and different dimensions of this cake were completed with a full set of "Pokemon Balls".  This surely was a fun and unique cake to create! Happy Birthday Katie, hope you enjoyed your special day!  (I think the below pictures prove she did)

Another Princess Turns 1!

It was Katelyns turn for her big day! After having a daughter of my own who recently turned 1 I can relate to how much fun it is to throw a princess/pink party.   Katelyn had just that!  We did detailed crowns, butterflies & flowers to top the vanilla/ chocolate cupcakes with co-ordinating  icing.  I recently purchased a new decorating tool (The Cake Cricut) and this special occasion gave me my first chance to use it! It was a lot of fun making the perfect details for on top of the cupcakes!  Happy 1st Birthday Katelyn!


May The Force Be With You!

You Guessed it... YODA! It is extra special when the guest of honour has great theme to work with!
These cupcakes were especially fun for a little guys birthday party.  Though doing characters can be tricky as I am no George Lucas it was fun to give it my best shot! Maybe all you star wars fans can let me know what you think? LOL. I loved the colour of these and attempted to give them as much detail as possible.  This was defiantly a fun batch of cupcakes to decorate! Congratulations Little Yoda!

Bright colours for the Baby2B :)

A co- worker of mine was throwing a shower for her niece who is expecting there first baby in the very near future!  I was honoured when she asked us to be part of the day! As always we wanted to find how we could personalize this to the Mom2B with out letting on too much what we were up to :)  I had a chance to actually talk with the Mom2B and found out the colours they had chosen.  For all you 'Benjamin Moore' lovers "Trout Grey" was the back drop for this cake.  With layers of vibrant blue &yellow topped with circles & flowers of a deep purple and bright pink!  These great colour were accented over the classic flavours of vanilla and chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream icing.   I hope everyone enjoyed as much as I did creating!
