You Gotta Kiss A Lot Of Frogs.....



You Gotta Kiss A Lot Of Frogs...
November 27, 2010 Top Tier - Chocolate Cake filled with Oreo Cookie Buttercream
Bottom Tier - Maraschino Cherry Cake iced in Buttercream.

This cake was made for a very special four year old Princess...I was told by her parents that when she thought that no one was looking she gave the little frog a kiss!
At least in this case if the frog doesn't turn into a Prince, you can always eat your tiara!

Both Tiers - Pumpkin Cake filled with Gingered Pumpkin Cheesecake and iced in Cream Cheese Buttercream

This was such a fun birthday cake to create! The birthday girl is The Flintstones biggest fan (all her pets are named after characters from The Flintstones) and with her birthday being so close to Hallowe'en, we tied in the spirit of the holiday as well!

Topsy Turvy 40th Birthday


Topsy Turvy 40th Birthday!

Both Tiers - Chocolate Cake iced with Whipped Buttercream

My first ever Topsy Turvy cake was a success! I was so happy that it stayed in place!

The Whipped Buttercream was a recipe test as I have been trying to come up with a "whiter" buttercream to use for wedding cakes and such. With a little tweaking this has great potential.

Bottom Tier - Vanilla Cake filled with Raspberries and White Chocolate Cream Cheese Icing

Top and Middle Tier - Banana Cake with Chocolate Chunks iced in White Chocolate Cream Cheese Icing.

The wedding colours of purple, fushia, teal and chocolate brown really made this cake spectacular! It was so much fun to create and the best compliment I received was from the groom..."Often you see a cake that looks good but when you taste it it's just kinda bland. That cake tastes awesome! "

I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to create this very unique wedding cake. The groom owned the yellow jeep when the couple met and their Black Lab, Buka, and their Boston Terrier, Tika, were also featured on the top of the cake.

Top and Bottom Tier - Lemon Poppyseed Cake filled with Lemon Curd iced in Buttercream

The fresh flowers really made this simply iced cake look elegant.
A 3 tier wedding cake is the largest that can be accomodated by my home fridge. The tiers are 6", 9" and 12" and each tier is 4" high and will serve between 85 and 100 people.
