Caterpillars, Cupcakes & Safaris! What Will The Theme For Your Next Childs Special Occasion Be?

These first few months of 2011 have brought on some pretty fun and creative "Frosted Treats".  Cameron, Emma & Grayson all turned 1 this year and there familes (Moms) wanted to ensure they celebrated in style.  I was honoured they came to us to help make this a success.  

Cameron's birthday was first with "Hungry Caterpillar" themed cupakes.  Straight from the classic book written by Eric Carle we created not only the Caterpillar but some of the fun food he enjoyed too!  It was a lot of fun to recreate this story and bring it to life.  

Next was Emma.  Her mom was after a "Smash Cake".  These are quite common and a lot of fun! A special cake just for Emma to enjoy all to herself!  I only wish I would of saw the out come of how dug right in!  Contrasts of Pink & white:  it was a simple yet classic look.  Perfect for a little princess!

Last but far from least was Grayson!  To celebrate his 1st birthday a Safari Theme was chosen.  With a special display of a little special Monkey.  With a colour bursting bottom layer of polkadots covering chocolate brown fondant , a 2nd layer with Zebra print cake and Palm Trees then topped with one cute little monkey.  The 2nd layer also had a mini Elephant hanging around too! Over all it was fun to create a mini Safari for the party!  What a fun cake to do!

It was fun to explore new themes & make all ideas come to life! Looking forward to the next special occasion and theme. Enjoy a few pics to see exactly what we were up to!
