Ladybugs and a Bridal Shower

Ladybugs for a little girl who turned one year old!  The little bug was for the little girl to smash up!  The aunt who ordered the cakes said they didn't want a lot of fondant, so that the texture wouldn't confuse her.  So I did buttercream in red, then covered with the fondant faces and spots.  I'm sure the little birthday girl was covered in red! 

I was given two days to do this bridal shower cake.  I love square cakes, and pink and white.  The bride-to-be and the mother loved it.  They were 5" and 8" squares.  I won't say it's easy to cover squares in fondant, but I absolutely love the look! 

Both of these orders were a white cake with raspberry filling, covered in vanilla buttercream!  Yum!

Busy Weekend

What does a teapot, dog, 50th birthday and graduation have in common? The Flour Shop!



It was my first time doing a teapot and I can't wait to do another. I actually used the same ball pan that I did with the ball of yarn so it came out to be a nice size. When it was put in the room where the tea party/bridal party was to be held, the colors went beautifully together!



The cupcakes were chocolate, half with peppermint frosting topped with white chocolate, and the other half with peanut butter frosting topped with dark chocolate. The chocolates were painted with luster dust for the silver and blue effects. The same client who had the graduating senior also had a baby shower the next day for her sister, hence the pink and purple flowery cake. That I never got to try that cake is depressing! It was a white cake with raspberry filling and cream cheese buttercream. I was told it was amazing!



The 50th cookies and the doggies were for a client's mom who was turning 50 this weekend. She loves purple and has little dogs, so that worked well.

Apple Cookies were for fun!

Bridal Shower

My girlfriend asked for a light cake for a bridal shower. Angel food is the best for that kind of request because it is so fabulous with fruit!
