Princess Grace's 5th Birthday

This cake was done for a little girl turning five. She was having a princess birthday. Her favorite color is pink, but we used purple too, for contrast.



Cake was white with buttercream and raspberry filling, covered in marshmallow fondant. Decorations (stripes, pearls, bow are fondant; dots on pink quilting and writing are buttercream).

On the top of the cake are "jewels" made of hard strawberry candy, attached with buttercream.

Tiara is purchased (because birthday girl wanted to wear as opposed to eat the tiara) but could be recreated out of fondant or gumpaste and hard candy jewels.

Party cake serves 40 (6" tier, 8" tier). Similar size wedding cake serves 50.

Off to Iraq


This cake was for a young Marine Reservist who is going to Iraq. It was from his coworkers on his last day. The cake was white with buttercream, fashioned to look like a US Troop stationed in Iraq. The cookies have an almond vanilla glaze to appear as yellow ribbons--supporting the troops and hoping they all come home safely!

The second photo shows a close up of the message on the cake.

This cake served 12-15.
