Guinea Pig Cake!

This cake was for my brother for his birthday!
Guinea Pig Cake

He loves guinea pigs and currently has two. We constantly joke about how they eat them in some countries, so I thought this would be sort of funny.

The little guy was so darn cute... I'm glad I decided it would be in terrible taste to make him red velvet inside hahaha. This isn't an armadillo and this isn't Steel Magnolias.

Sliced cake
Confetti cake seemed the most festive and well... the least threatening haha.

Here's my brother with his cake:

Any for no reason at all other than to show off how fabulous my hair stylist is, here's a photo of me, since I never post photos of myself on here.

21st Birthdays call for cake for sure!

21st Birthday Cake

I really loved making this cake. I got to use fondant and who doesn't love to do a zebra print? Everyone should order zebra print cakes from me... because I love to do them! Technically, This is only the second zebra print cake I've done, but there was that one tiger print one I did and it was the same thing... just orange lol.

I was really excited about trying to do the "HAPPY" suspended above the cake. I made the letters from candy melt, hoping they'd be stronger than fondant, but not too heavy. I embellished them with buttercream and silver dragees. Lovely!

New Cakes


I made this cake for the ThreadCakes.com contest.

It was a lot of fun to make!













This cake was made for two of my awesome friends for their birthday! I used chocolate and candy melt to make all kinds of awesome things that had to do with their lives.  One of my friends dog, a sand dollar, lilies, Ohio, Kentucky etc.
Everyone loved it! This was my first four tier cake. The top tier was lemon, the middle two were white cake and the bottom was lemon cake filled with strawberries and buttercream. It was SO GOOD. I was really excited I got to help eat it!
