Cakes...

Here are some great pics of cakes i have done recently. i know some of you have seen them on facebook already but, these are for people who are interested in acquiring my services for their parties and such. so here are some "recent pictures"


this blue and white one was my best friends wedding cake back in may. it was a moist yellow cake with fresh strawberried and vanilla mousse inside. it was iced and decorated with cream cheese frosting.


This wedding cake was the first one i did at the hotel i used to work at. i don't remember the flavors inside, but it was iced with an italian buttercream frosting and decorated swiss dots and real yellow roses.


This one i also did at the hotel. it was for a friend. i think it was chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting and large swirls.


This one is by far my favorite that i have done. it was for a friend in austin. i baked the cake at my apartment in san antonio, filled it and iced it and even put on the fondant also at my apt. then, i loaded it up, separately, in my truck, and drove 1.5 hrs to austin and put it in a hotel cooler. it was undecorated at the time. the hotel wouldn't let me use their kitchen for liability purposes, SO....i decorated the whole thing in my hotel room, right next to my bed. it was very fun. i had the bride, mothers, bridesmaids, all trooping through to look at the cake in process. this cake was a yellow cake, also with strawberries and vanilla mousse. it had a very thin layer of cream cheese frosting, then it was covered with fondant. the pink and green ribbon are real curling ribbon that i "wove" in and out of the cake and the flowers are real! i love this cake!


i did this cake for a friend of a friend las fall. it was the first wedding cake i had ever done out of my apartment. i don't remember all the flavors of this one.


I did this one back at the hotel. this was the brides 2nd marriage and she wanted a "fun" wedding cake that still looked like a wedding cake. it was a yellow cake with white chocolate mousse and raspberries. and iced with italian buttercream frosting which tasted AWFUL because of all the pink food coloring in it. and i tried everything to make it taste better and no matter what i did, it still tasted weird!! so, moral, if you want your cake to taste good, don't ask for pink or red icing...


i don't remember anything about this cake, at all...sorry, well, besides the fact that i made it :)


I made this cake for my dad's 50th suprise party last year. i baked the cakes down here in texas then carried them on the plane with me to st louis. and made the frosting at my aunts house and iced and decorated it there and took it to my parents house. the gun on top is a replica of my 9mm made out of cake and decorated with ganache and dark chocolate. the rest of the cake is a dark chocolate cake with ganache frosting.


This cake was the first cake i made with fondant over it. it also had gumpaste flowers on top.


This cake was also covered with fondant. this was an elaborate, very froo-froo cake. it had "lace" and bows and ribbon and flowers. it was really fun to make, and very pretty when it was done.

Those are some of my best and favorite cakes that i have done.
