More cakes....

 This cake was for my sis's 1 year anniversary. It was lemon cake, vanilla butter cream with fondant icing. Filling was vanilla custard and fresh strawberries. SO GOOD!

 This was my first attempt at a standard graduation cap. Had some issues getting it all to be edible but plan C worked out well.  This was chocolate cake, chocolate butter cream and fondant/modeling chocolate icing and the filling was vanilla custard.

 Another cap, tried something different for the cap, easier to work with but not as stiff as plan C. This cake was chocolate with peanut butter frosting and fondant. Filling was "Butterfingers". SO good!

 Happy Father's day! Chocolate with chocolate butter cream, vanilla custard and fresh from my neighbor's garden strawberries. The cupcakes are chocolate with custard filling. Chocolate butter cream swirl and fresh strawberry fan.

What Father's day is complete with out a tie?????

Happy Birthday!!!

I am so lucky to make my nephew's birthday cake every year. Last year he wanted Buzz Lightyear, Space Ranger. Not too bad for my first attempt with modeling chocolate in a grand scale.


My favorite part to make were the eyebrows. Here's the secret.... Tootsie Roll.

Graduation Cakes.

My sister recently graduated from the University of Utah with a PhD. We are so proud of her accomplishment. I think one of the best ways to celebrate is with food and cake is really wonderful.

This is a white cake with chocolate ganache filling with a almond butter cream frosting.
It was very tasty!
I am very pleased! After you get your PhD. You now can wear the "pillow hat"! Not just a miter board poky thing.
This "pillow hat" is made from scratch! red velvet with cream cheese frosting. I used fondant colored black to cover and shape the hat and took modeling chocolate for the tassel and yellow petal dust.
I think it turned out well.

GO DR. MACINTOSH!
