Strawberry Lemonade Cake

It's not as pretty as some, but I think it tasted great.

I made a lemon cake and added strawberry pie filling for the filling and the top. It was decorated with whipped topping. I was going to use strawberry whipped topping, but since my husband didn't want a pink cake, I went with the original.

First "professional" cake

A friend of a friend needed a cake for her little boy's birthday last week. I was able to make this cute cake.

It was fun to make a boys cake for a change. I used the Wilton charater pan and put in on a 1/4 sheet cake. Super easy.

Pretty Flower Cake

It's been a long while since my last post. I made my sister in law her birthday cake this year. I did a peach cake, it was very yummy.I decorated it with little peach flowers. I haven't decorated a cake for awhile, it was fun to get my things out and play for awhile.

Father's Day Cakes

I saw these on Bakerella so can't take credit for them. I totally fell in love with them and made some for my husband for his Father's Day treat. They are little slider cupcakes with a side of cookie french fries. So fun!

Wizard of Oz

I am so happy that my older girls seem to finally be getting out of the princess stage. It's not that I don't love princesses, it's just that it gets old really quick. So this year my four year old wanted the Wizard of Oz for her birthday cake. Here's what she got.I must say it won't have turned out half as cute if I didn't have the little figurines made by barbie just in time for her birthday. I found them at Wal-Mart and they worked out perfectly.

Birthday cake

Wow, its been awhile since my last post. Opps, sorry. So here is one of the cakes I made last month. It was for my daughter who was turning six.
She wanted a Strawberry Shortcake cake, but all the ones I had seen were totally boring white sheet cake with a figure on top. Not my style. So I came up with this idea.
The hat band is made out of Airheads (the candy) and the strawberry in front, out of Starbursts. Everything else is frosting folks and it was gooo-ood.

Class Cupcakes

My oldest daughter is now in kindergarten. Among other things, this means that now we are obligated to bring cupcakes to her classmates on her birthday. It was a lot of fun. My daughter mixed up the cake mix and helped me make the cupcakes. She loved feeling like she made them all on her own.
We made 24 swimming bears cupcakes. She saw these cupcakes in a magazine and had to have them. They were so easy!! We frosted them blue and added the bears floating on fruit by the foot or in a gummy lifesaver. We found the fish at a candy store. Everyone in her class loved them.
