Pokemon Black and White

This was a Pokemon Black and White cake.  To be honest with you when I was first asked to make this cake I thought it was just a black and white Pokemon.  I had to do a Google search to see what it was.  When I found out it was dragons I thought yes, I could do this.  I love a challenge.

I made both dragons out of gum paste.  I made the wings first to let them shape and harden and then the rest of the body.  I had to use royal icing to stick the wings on to keep them in place.

Ice Cream Parlor Cake

I made this cake for my youngest daughter, Nia (Nia Cakes) who was celebrating her 2nd Birthday.  We celebrated with her at Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor so I thought it was fitting to make an ice cream themed cake.

The sad thing is we never even ended up eating the cake.  There was so much ice cream and food that the cake sat in the frig for 2 weeks with no one touching it.  So we ended up throwing it away.

Spiderman Cake

This cake was for my nephew Gavin's 3rd birthday.  It was a 6" cake made for the top of a cupcake tower.  Chocolate cake with Oreo cookie filling. Yumm!

Spiderman Bust

This was a 12" Spiderman bust cake.  The bust was made out of rice krispy treats covered in fondant.  All completely edible.

Paul Frank

This was a Paul Frank cake I made for my friend's son, Ronav.  They were celebrating his 6 month Birthday and mom and dad both love dressing Ronav in Paul Frank clothing.  So it was fitting to have a Paul Frank cake to celebrate his first 6 months here on Earth.

Garden Party

This was a 10" cake and cake pops for a garden theme birthday party.

Choo Choo Cupcakes

These were trained themed cupcakes with a railroad sign, rail road tracks and bandanas.

Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto!

This cake and smash cake was for baby J.Z.'s first birthday party.

The robot on the cake was made completely out of fondant.  I made the smash cake completely egg free because he has a slight allergy to eggs.  Baby J.Z. wasn't too sure what to do with his smash cake so he just stared at it. 

Phineas and Ferb

Phineas and Ferb theme cake along with rainbow mini cupcakes.

The cake was covered in fondant and figures where made out of fondant and gum paste.

"Every Child is an Artist"

The theme of this party was "Every child is an Artist".  The cake was a 10" round cake carved out like a painter's palette.  I used royal icing to make the splatter marks on the cake and the paint blots on top.  The inside of the cake was made with multicolored batter so when the cake was cute the colors exploded.

The "Every child is an artist" cookie was white royal icing with "Every child is an artist" printed on edible rice paper and placed on top.

The palette cookies where round cookies covered in white royal icing with royal icing paint blots.

Pink Party!

This was a pink theme birthday party.  6" round cake with mini cupcakes for a cupcake tower.

Carousel Cake

This was a carousel themed cake and smash cake for a 1st birthday party that was held on the Santa Monica Pier.  The entire piece was made out of cake and almost completely edible.  The only part of the cake that was not edible were the horse poles and flag pole which were lollipop sticks.

I used a candy mold to mold out the horses on the carousel and used fondant to make the mane, tail, and saddle of each horse.

The smash cake was a single horse that matched the carousel made especially for the birthday girl herself.

Woodland Creatures Cake and Cupcakes

This cake was for Isla who was turning 3.  The theme of her party was woodland creatures.  Her mom sent me a picture of a pin cushion and asked me if I could make it into a cake.

The cake was made using 2 types of pans.  The bottom part of the cake was a round 10" cake covered in fondant.  I gave it some ridges to make it look similar to a tree stump.  For the top part of the cake I used a magic mold to create the hill mound.  All the creatures and mushrooms were made out of fondant.

Along with the cake I made mini cupcakes to match the theme of the cake.

Hello Kitty You're so Pretty!

This was a Hello Kitty themed party with mini cupcakes and 6" cake.

The cake was covered in fondant with a marshmallow Hello Kitty lollipop topper.  The side of the cake was embellished with Hello Kitty rings and fondant cutouts and placed on top of a 3 tier cupcake tower.

The cupcake tower was the center piece of the Hello Kitty candy bar.

Angry Birds Cake and Cupcakes #2

 This was another Angry Birds cake I made along with standard size cupcakes. It was a 6" cake with 6 dozen cupcakes all around a square cupcake tower.

I handmade my own cupcake tower out of foam board and cement glue and trimmed it with red and blue ribbon.

Angry Birds Cake and Cupcakes #1

This was for my godson, Joshua's 3rd birthday.  He loves Angry Birds, so his mom planned an Angry Birds themed party at Chuck E. Cheese.

The cake was a 6" cake made with completely edible Angry Birds characters.  The cupcakes were mini cupcakes topped with fondant toppers.

Max's Monster Mania

This was a monster truck themed cake for Max's 5th Birthday.  It was a 10" round vanilla cake filled with a rich vanilla butter cream frosting.

The entire monster truck was made out of rice krispy treats covered in butter cream and fondant.  I made the body of the truck first and carved out rivets for the wheels, then I carved out the cab using a separate piece of rice krispy and placed it on top of the body fusing it with royal icing. The tires were cut out by using a fluted biscuit cutter to give it some ridges. 

Vintage Bling

 This cake was a made for a little girl named Bella who was turning 4. She loves thing very Blingy and she is a little diva in the making.  Her mom gave me the rhinestone trim and the rhinestone monogram for the top of the cake.  She also provided me with some pre-made Anemones.  I did however, have to make an extra 7 or so Anemones to fill the gaps on the cake.  The rhinestone boarder did not go all the way around the cake and I had to improvise to fill the gap.


This cake was a 12" round and about 6 to 7 inches high.  The cake was a chocolate cake with raspberry preserve filling coated with a white chocolate butter cream.  The entire cake was quilted all around with the accessories added to it.

Baby Mickey for Baby Mason!

These cakes were for Mason who turned 1.  His Birthday party theme was Baby Mickey and his mom asked if I could do an 10", 8", and 6" cake to place on top of a 3 tier platter.

The 10" tier was red velvet cake with cream cheese filling. I made a Mickey hat made out of gum paste and placed it on top.  The side of the cake was decorated with pastel Mickey heads all around with star accents throughout the cake.

The 8" tier was a chocolate mint cake with chocolate mint buttercream.  I quilted the fondant and added pastel polka-dots around the cake.

The 6" cake was a chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling.   For this cake I made different size stripes and placed them all around the cake adding a multicolored bow on top.

Super Hero Cake!

This super hero cake was for Mark who turned 5 along with his twin sister Gianna (from previous post).  Just like Gianna, Mark also had a special request for his cake.  He wanted Incredible Hulks fist coming out of the top.

This cake was an 8" chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling.  I placed the Spiderman, Superman, and Batman logo all around the side of the cake.  The logos were made by printing out each logo and cutting them out of a piece of paper, which I used as a stencil.  I then took each stencil and placed it on top of my fondant and cut out each shape with an X-Acto knife.

The Incredible hulk fist was a little bit of a challenge for me since I am not a sculptor.  I attempted making it a couple of times and this was the best I came up with.  I ended up shaping a stub with gum paste and rolling out fingers to form a fist.  Then I covered the entire piece with fondant and smoothed it down to make it look like it was sculpted.

The mini cupcakes had matching mini logos to match the cake.
