The Cupcakery and More...

Cake for Hunter

This is my first stacked cake. The cake is vanilla with vanilla buttercream. Everything is edible except the Transformers. This was a fun one to make!

Sarah's Garden

This was a very special cake I had the priviledge of making in memory of  a little girl named Sarah.  Unfortunately Sarah was only a day and a half old when she died of a genetic heart defect. Her mother asked if I would make a cake for their March of DImes team party. They have walked every year for seven years now in memory of Sarah, but also to help raise money so that other babies can live. Here is a site that you can visit if you would be interested in donating to such a worthy cause. I figured a garden theme with butterflies would be perfect since they represent new life and beauty. I'll admit I have alot of practice to do on faces, but practice makes perfect. THis traveled all the way to NOrth Carolina so I wasn't able to get a picture of it all put together on the tree.

Cupcakes for Seth

These are 24 mini brownie cupcakes with buttercream icing. They were decorated in the Harry Potter theme.

Cupcakes for Jane

These are cupcakes I made for Jane's Birthday from one of her coworkers. She loves purses and especially shoes, so naturally I made her both and had a dress to match. I'll take the flower purse, dress and shoes please! Happy Birthday Jane!

Noahs Ark cake for Shower

This was done for a baby shower and yes everything on the cake was molded by hand and is edible (including the ark). This was very time consuming but the end product was well worth it. I put rainbows on some of the cupcakes as well. The cake is vanilla with raspberry filling and cream cheese icing and the cupcakes were chocolate with cream cheese icing and vanilla with raspberry filling and cream cheese icing.

Baseball cupcakes for Jackson!

This was a baseball cake that I made. The baseball and bat are all hand molded fondant. Everything on the cake is edible. The mini cupcakes were arranged on a placemat by Jackson's Mommy. Vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with vanilla buttercream. Cake is vanilla with vanilla buttercream. I loved the fact that the birthday party was at the baseball field!

Frog CupCake Tree for Grant

This is a frog cake I did for Grants first birthday. I love how it turned out. Everything on the cake is edible including the frog. The cupcakes were chocolate and vanilla with vanilla buttercream. The cake was vanilla cake with cream cheese icing.

Princess and Pirates

These are cupcake I made for a Princess and Pirate party. The picture doesn't do them justice, but they turned out really cute! I have a cupcake tree I made to put them on, but didn't get a picture of it. I will post one of the tree later. Everything on the cupcakes are edible.

 

Poppys Favorite cake

This was my Poppy's favorite cake - German Chocolate. Unfortunately he passed away last week and we will miss him deeply, but it is great to have such wonderful memories of him. One of my many memories of him is the fact that he loved German Chocolate cake. My Nana would always bake him one for his Birthday and she would make the icing from scratch. I have been wanting to make German Chocolate cupcake so this seemed like the perfect time. It is so moist and delicious. There is such a big difference when the icing is from scratch instead of from a can. Sorry about the picture but I couldn't resist eating this one. This is definitely on my "A" list.

Caramel Apple Cupcakes

This is another new flavor I wanted to try. The cake is spice cake with apple filling baked in the center and then topped with vanilla buttercream and drizzled with caramel sauce. I tested it out on the family and they all loved it.
