Two Peas in a Pod

Two Peas in a Pod

These two little cuties and their pea pods are hand formed from gumpaste.  They sit on top of a two tiered french vanilla cake that is filled with a luscious raspberry pastry filling.

Sweet Pea Cupcakes

Two dozen chocolate and vanilla cupcakes surround the cake canter piece.  Each has been filled with raspberry and topped with vanilla buttercream.  The top of every cupcake has been adorned with a piece of nature, a sweet pea blossom.

Have Your Cake and Cupcakes to!

What better way to celebrate a first birthday than with a beautiful cake and cupcakes too!  The mother of the birthday girl had decided on a theme of cupcakes but she wanted a traditional birthday cake as well.  Using her paper goods for inspiration I designed this cake for her.  The bottom is a very tall 8" round cake with a 4" round cake on top.  12 mini cupcakes surround the second tier and an over sized cupcake creates the third tier. 

The two round cakes are covered in fondant while all the cupcakes are topped with a buttercream swirl.  Finally, I made the "1" from homemade gumpaste.  All the cake is a moist vanilla cake with princess buttercream filling.

Happy 1st Birthday!

More Salmon!

The salmon are still making their way up the creeks, streams and rivers of Alaska!  Here is another celebration cake that features these favorite fish.  This time I chose butter cream for the cake finish.  The salmon were once again made from hand cut fondant and painted details. The purple starfish are molded from chocolate.  Moist butter vanilla cake and lemon butter cream make this cake one that anyone would love!
