Football Cake


This is my first carved cake cake. I have made a carved
"cake" that was actually rice krispie treats, but this one
was all cake. I made this cake for a one-year old boy
whose baby shower cake I made a little over a year
ago. My husband and I were just talking about how 
fun it would be if I made all of Jason's cake through 
his wedding cake! The bottom cake was White
Almond Sour Cream and the top was Chocolate 
Almond Sour Cream. Happy First Birthday, Jason.

All-American and 65!

This cake was for a woman I just met recently
who is full of life and love. She is so incredibly 
friendly. She called me to make her birthday cake
and told me, "I'll be 65 and I'm and All-American Gal". 
This is how it turned out. It was a carrot cake
with cream cheese buttercream filling and frosting.

Otero Wedding cake



This wedding cake was for our pastor's daughter. Hope was in 
youth group when my husband and I were youth group 
leaders and she also babysat for us. 
This cake was white almond sour cream with raspberry buttercream filling,
chocolate rum with chocolate rum buttercream filling, and
red velvet with almond buttercream filling. It was 
quite delicious if I do say so myself!

Andrew's FUN-raiser

I made these two cakes for a very special fundraiser. The son of 
our friends was diagnosed with neuroblastoma when he was very young. 
He only lived for about 3 1/2 years. Andrew touched many lives in 
his short amount of time here on earth. Our town came together to support the family
when they were going through treatment and through the loss of their young son.
Last Saturday, the town rallied again. The family held a FUN-raiser in Andrew's
honor for St. Baldrick's. Of the funds raised for St. Baldrick's, 82% goes 
solely to research childhood cancer. If you know anything about these
organizations, a lot of the money raised usually goes to administration
and overhead and very little goes toward the actual research, so this is a big deal.
Anyway, the Nelson's raised $50,000 through this FUN-raiser. It was a very
emotional time. I am so proud of our little town.

Beach and Guitar cakes

 So, my dear customer needed two cakes this weekend. One for her sweet daddy
and the other for her spunky niece. Both cakes were spice with almond
buttercream! Happy Birthday, Pop and Lauren.
