Lots of Cookies!

These cookies were for Lake Highland Prep. You can see on the logo the L,H and P. I was so happy to have the printer and proper ink this time.

The next cookies were for a Christening for my dear friends niece. It's hard to tell, but the base icing color was ivory, the dash was white and the pearls were pearly/ivory. They are 3 1/2" cookies, so they are quite large. They turned out very nice!

The breast cancer awareness ribbons were done for a private event for the Brighton store in the Altamonte Mall. They were showing their new pieces for breast cancer awareness, which were absolutely lovely, and raising $$ for Florida Hospital's Eden Spa. Eden Spa helps women going through breast cancer, by providing an understanding area where you can go and get fitted for wigs. They provide so many services and I am honored to work with them in raising monies!

Southern Living at Home Show

Two separate tables that were both for a wedding and for a bridal shower. We were amazed that the pink and green mini cakes and cookies matched so perfectly! The wedding cake had little purple flowers and yellow stamens, it's hard to see it in the picture. I thought it all turned out very pretty.

Sports Ball Cakes

This was for a friend's little boy. He turned one year old and has a love for all sizes of sports balls. I decided to put together tennis, basketball, soccer and baseballs. When we walked in with the board full of the cakes, the birthday boys' big brother tried grabbing one of the baseballs and myself and my husband both freaked! He didn't get to it!

Logo Cookies

I was asked to make cookies for a school fundraiser. I was excited for the opportunity, because I've been wanting to get a printer for logo work. I ordered the printer, the edible ink and was ready to go.

When I went to put in the cartridges, I noticed it was not the printer I ordered, it was an updated model. Hhhmmm, it was late and I had to figure out what to do now that I couldn't print the logos.

I came up with the idea for plaid cookies, because the name is Lake Highland, and they are known as highlanders. They did not turn out the way I wanted, but I will have an opportunity do some more for the school. And yes, I had to order new ink to fit the new printer, but all is well!


After getting the new ink, I had several more opportunities to use it. A friend of mine is in a BNI leads group, and it was National Nannie Recognition Week. I was asked to do cookies for both of these.

100 year old birthday party!

These were amazing! The yellow ones were white cake with lemon curd filling. The pink ones were italian cream cake with raspberry filling. Delicious! Everyone loved these!

My daughter decorated this carrot cake. It was for the man of the house, and he barely had any left to enjoy after the party! Everyone loved it.

These were a repeat of a design that we have done before. The design is from a little notepad. I think my daughter did a better job of re-creating it the first time!

More adorable little dresses with matching handbags!

Henna Scrollwork

This is another dummy cake that I totally loved doing! It was alot of little, detailed, time-consuming work. I like the way it turned out, but of course I learned a few things that I would do differently the next time.

Henna has such neat designs and I think black and white are perfect for it! I would like to add some white flowers on the top with black centers to set it off.

25th Birthday and Isabella's 1st Birthday!

This was a rush cake, ordered Friday afternoon and picked up Saturday morning. The only direction was a gray fondant covered, three-tiered with lime green and blue polka dots, but a bit modern with a 25 on the top. I'm really happy about the way it turned out. It didn't look too childish, but not too simple either!

The Elmo cake was for our dear friends that just moved back to Orlando from California. Their daughter turned one, and she is due in November with the second! The smash cake was a hit! They actually wanted to have fondant covering the cake, and I was running way behind schedule, so I did just the buttercream. I was actually very happy about how smooth it was, because I've not done a b/c only cake in a loooong time!

Xbox with Frag Grenades

This was for my girlfriends' son. He turned 16 and wanted an Xbox. Last year he got the laptop cake below. The Frag Grenades are an homage to Halo, since that is all he, his brother, and my son and daughter do when they are together!

Guitars and Weddings...

This was a life size guitar made for a graduation. This family is very musical and quite eclectic, so it was fun to do this for them! I made the Whimsical Wedding Cake at the bottom of the blog for his brother's wedding last year, so now it was his turn for a great cake! I used gumpaste for the details, covered the chocolate cake in marshmallow fondant and brushed all over with luster dust. I now want to do another one!



This was a last minute cake that was done for a small wedding. I didn't have any idea of color or style, just that the bride wanted a white cake with spring flowers. I had seen a cake similar to this with a tiffany blue base and white pointed flowers. I wanted to do that style, so I just switched up the colors! When the bride's sister came to pick it up, I was told the colors matched perfectly to her bouquet, so I guess it was meant to be!

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!

Kitty Cats and Yarn Cake

This cake was fun to do. I had seen a version of it on http://www.cakecentral.com and had always wanted to do it. I added another cat and changed the color of the yarn. It was a huge hit! If I were to do it again, I would get the pasta attachment for my mixer and use that to create the yarn. As it was, I rolled each piece of fondant by hand.

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!

Jay's Birthday Fish

My son turned 14 yesterday. After discussing several different designs for a cake, this is what was decided on. He wanted alot of blood! It is a red velvet cake with red vanilla icing, raspberry jam and covered in marshmallow fondant. The fondant was gray, then painted with silver luster dust. Found out after the fact that all the scales were backwards!! Oh well, it turned out fun!
