I made this cake for the sweet music ministry secretary in our church. She is enjoying her retirement by traveling and visiting her numerous grandchildren! I was asked to create a cake that fit with the travel/grandkids theme. The two luggage cakes are covered with homemade marshmallow fondant and decorated with molding chocolate. The stickers repreresent all the places Sherrie will travel to visit her grandkids! I added a letter and a cup of coffee as a whimsical touch.
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.

Zebra Birthday
I learned a couple of new techniques while I was making this birthday cake. First, I perfected my black fondant recipe. Instead of being bitter with tons of black food coloring, I used more dark chocolate and the result was that it tasted like....dark chocolate! I also made fondant roses for the first time. They are so much faster and easier than the traditional Wilton icing roses. Estelle loved the cake!

Soccer Cupcakes
Red Velvet Cupcakes
I can't believe the Christmas season is just around the corner! This was my first order of the holiday season, and it made me want to listen to all the Christmas music on my Ipod while I was decorating. These are red velvet cakes with cream cheese icing and icing decor. I added some edible glitter for sparkle.
