Ruffle Cakes

I love when there is a new "trend" in cake styles and we get to put them to use! Two very awesome party planners connected with me for cakes, both requesting the ruffle finish.  I was in my glory to deliver the cake portion for there sweets tables!  

The first cake below was for a baby shower to celebrate the arrival of a little boy.  The over all details of the shower were amazing, the sweets table was a real highlight.  I LOVE the banner they put in the cake to give it a nice focal point! Awesome job Robyn.

The second cake was for a sweet girls first birthday.  Sweet was the focus of the event, and the cake table was beautifully designed!  Again, loving the perfectly placed banner on the cake.  It went perfect with the heart accents we placed down the sides of this cake.  The colours were eye catching as well! 

Emily, you never cease to amaze me with your eye for design!

Sheep Cupcakes

These cupcakes were as fun to make as they look! Its always a fun expierence to use butter cream for a  neat finish! This layered bubble finish was perfect to create a nice fluffy white sheep!  We built our little mountain of buttercream and topped with a sheep's head.  They were cute, cartoon like sheep.  Jen, a regular of Frosted Spoon treated them for her family for her Dads Birthday.  He is a sheep farmer and so has a particular love for the cuddly things.  Thanks again Jen! 

Harley Davidson Cupcakes

My last post was a 'Turtles' Tale for Lucas.  Well Lucas's Dad also had a birthday and to create something fun for that Melissa chose a Harley Davidson theme.  A Logo that has been around for decades!  The Black/White and Orange colours no matter how designed make you think of Harley.  Being that the subject was a cupcake we had limited space to bring the theme to life.  The shape and colours of the cupcake toppers were key!  Very please how they turned out!  

A Turtles Tale

Doing this cake was a lot of fun! I always love it when I can use a new technique and this time it was the "marble" effect.  To create an ocean feel for our turtle we blended (but not overly) white and ocean blue.  Once blended to the perfect moment we rolled out and stretched it over our cake.  We did a wrap of sea grass around the edge and then put our cute "Sammy" on top.  He was made completely out of fondant/gum paste.  He was as sweet as he looked!  Over all a great simple design that really brought the theme to life!  Happy Birthday to Lucas! Hoping you enjoyed your cake!
