Drinks all around!!!

This was a super fun order.  A friend of mine had her 2nd annual 39th birthday party and asked me to make the sweets!  We decided on a small individual cake for her and cupcakes for the rest of the guests.  The sculpted "Martini" cake was a vanilla sponge cake with strawberry mousse filling and champagne buttercream icing.   The olive was made out of fondant.







I also made two dozen pina colada cupcakes with pineapple, coconut buttercream icing and two dozen margarita cupcakes with tequila lime cream cheese icing.  YUM!!!

Dino-mite!

This cake was for my friend's little boy.  He requested a chocolate dinosaur cake.  She requested oreo buttercream filling.  ;)  I think they were both pretty happy, in the end...





Iced in green tinted vanilla buttercream. Modeling chocolate spots and spikes. White modeling chocolate "Happy Birthday" banner.  All red detail is done in melting chocolate.

A picture is worth a thousand words...




Finally-the long awaited pictures!  This cake is one I did for my son's lacrosse team.  It was a 38" long cake!  Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and vanilla sponge cake with vanilla buttercream.  The whole cake is covered in fondant with piped icing laces and writing.  A fitting end to a sweet season!  Congrats to the Citrus Park Gecko's rec league on an amazing season.  Rah, Rah Gecko's!
