Barnyard Bash Cake & Baseball Cupcake Cake

Here is a barnyard cake for a little boy's 3rd birthday party. Mom sent me a picture of the plates she was using, so the cake was modeled after the theme. I love all the cute little farm animals with their party hats!

The cake was iced in buttercream, and all the little characters were molded out of fondant.



Mom also ordered a baseball cupcake cake for his class to celebrate the following day. He shared his birthday with another little boy in his class, so we added his name also.

Cupcakes are iced in buttercream.

Cars Cupcakes

I don't usually make cupcake cakes, so this was new for me. I kinda liked it though...

This mom wanted some cupcakes with a "Cars" theme, but she wanted something different than the usual that she had seen. I came up with this little scene for Mater, McQueen, and Sally, and she loved it!

Vanilla and Chocolate cupcakes were iced in buttercream with fondant on top. The cars, rocks, tires, and cactus were all fondant.

Call of Duty Cake

This cake was done for a 12 year old who likes video games. I guess that probably describes most kids that age, huh :o)

The cake is covered in fondant with fondant accents. The helmet is also fondant covered cake, and the grenade is molded rice krispies on the inside.

 

Angry Birds Cake

Angry Birds is everywhere! Tons of people are always playing the game, and I've seen the little plush toys and clothing in the stores. So why not cake?!

My nephew, who was turning 9, wanted an Angry Birds cake for his birthday. So what does a Favorite Aunt Carla like me do? Well, she gives him one :o)

It was cute to watch all the kids pick out which bird or pig they wanted to eat...

Cake was iced in buttercream with all fondant accents. The castle has a brick pattern to it, but its hard to see in this image.

Again, the image quality is poor due to my lovely phone camera being my only working camera at the moment...

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Cake

Its hard to believe that I've been making cakes for others for almost two years now. It doesn't seem like its been that long. I guess its true, time flies when you're having fun :o)

This cake was made for a little boy turning 3. I made his cake last year (the first Lightning McQueen cake on my blog ), so I was thrilled when his mom asked me to make him another one this year. I love repeat business :o)

He wanted Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so that is what he got!

 Happy Birthday Casten!

Princess Baby Shower Cake

Here is a sweet soft pink princess cake I made for a baby shower. Cake is iced in buttercream with fondant roses. The tiara is molded out of gumpaste. All accents were dusted with edible pixie dust to give it that subtle shimmer, unfortunately, it doesn't show up in the image.



Ladybug Baby Shower Cake

Better late than never, I suppose... I apologize for the delay in cake postings...

Here is a sweet ladybug cake that I made for a baby shower. It is covered in fondant with fondant accents.

I just love the little ladybugs all around :o)

Side note: Please excuse the quality of the image as my camera is in need of a visit to the camera doctor, so this one and the next several posted images are from my phone camera :o(
