"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.

It's a Boy!


This was  2 tier baby shower cake, 10" & 9".  The mommy-to-be gave me the booties, pacifier, and keys to add onto the cake.

Snare Drum Cake



This cake was  6" cake covered in white fondant.  I sprayed the side of the cake with gold luster and painted the accents with silver dye.

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.

40th Birthday Tiffany's style


This is was a 10 x 10 Tiffany box cake with a fondant white ribbon and gift tag.

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.
