New Year's Eve Wedding


This was a beautiful wedding! It was by a pool, outside, with mohagony columns and tealites around the pool. The bride and groom were the most amazing clients to work for! They each had grown children, so this wedding was a fun celebration of their love.

The cake was three different flavors and turned out well. The top, which the couple kept, was chocolate kahlua with mocha buttercream. The second tier was italian cream cake with cream cheese filling. The bottom was a yellow cake with chocolate ganache filling.

I wish Wanda and Matt the very best for their future! Thanks for letting me be a part of your special day!

Copy of an Invitation!


This was an interesting one to do. The invitation was beautiful and I thought I would try to recreate it. I decided that to do it 3-dimensional would be quite time consuming and costly for the client, so I did a simpler version of 3-D.


All the details were made from fondant. I rolled it, then flattened with my finger where needed. There were a lot of dragees used on this! Also, royal icing was used for the beaded look on the crib, sides and bottoms.

Copy of a Napkin!













The napkin looked just like this, just with the writing along the bottom. This was the first time I had covered a board in fondant, it was actually pretty simple. I tacked it down with piping gel and it did the trick!

The CELEBRATE along the side was done by using alphabet cookie cutters as a template, then painted with black icing color.

The '8' was chocolate and the '0' was yellow cake.

It was a hit!
