My daughter is celebrating her 5th birthday this month, and she recently had her cupcake-themed party! She requested a chocolate cupcake cake with lots of colors. I used my special cupcake pan for the top. The bottom two layers are covered and decorated with colored fondant.
One of my favorite activities is creating beautiful cakes for special occasions! Please browse the site and e-mail me if I can help make your next event extra-special with a custom creation.

Christmas Cakes
I was happy to create a few special cakes for Todd's faculty Christmas luncheon this year! Instead of one big cake, I wanted to give everyone some flavor choices.
The small poinsettia cake is yellow with almond buttercream. I put some edible glitter on the fondant poinsettia to
make it sparkley!

The present cake with the red bow is red velvet cake with cream cheese icing. It is covered in fondant wrapping paper with hand-painted snowflakes.
The cupcakes are also red velvet with cream cheese icing. Each one has a small royal icing holly leaf with red hots as berries.
The large Merry Christmas cake is devil's food with chocolate-espresso buttercream filling. It is covered with fondant and decorated with fondant balls and polka dots.

Fleur de Lis Cake
This was a birthday cake for my sweet friend Estelle. She requested dark chocolate cake with cream cheese icing. I covered the 4-layer cake with homemade fondant. I colored the fondant gold and cut out the diamond shapes to go around the sides. Each diamond was hand-painted with gold dust! For the fleur-de-lis and black accents, I started with chocolate fondant and added food coloring. I carefully traced and cut out the pattern, attaching everything to the cake with icing.
It was quite yummy and a big hit at the party! Best of all, the birthday girl (an avid Saints fan and true Cajun) loved it!
