DALLAS COWBOYS



This red velvet cake was made for a Cowboys fan, obviously.  And just because it was a Cowboys cake, I did pipe a fleur-de-lis hidden on the back corner in icing :)

MAXINE

Happy Birthday Linda!
This red velvet cake was made for my mother-in-law Linda's birthday.  I piped Maxine in navy blue to represent her at work...

DUCK HUNTING



This cake was done for my neighbors who wanted a duck hunting theme.  I made the top as a replica of their chocolate lab.  In photos, the colors did come out off and looks shiny...

U.S. CUSTOMS and BORDER PROTECTION



This cake was made for US Customs.  It was a 12" stacked round red velvet cake, frosted with cream cheese icing.  The top was made as an exact replica of the customs patch below.

I MADE WHAT??




Today I made a cake for a birthday in the theme Tampa Bay Buccaneers....As much as it pained me to make a Buccaneer cake, it still smelled like money.  I should've piped a small fleur-de-lis in the very corner of the scrolls.  Who-Dat!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I baked this cake to celebrate my birthday which is tomorrow.  I used my 2 favorite flavors, since well you know it IS MINE!!!  The bottom 9" is red velvet with cream cheese frosting, and the 6" is Chai Tea Spice with cream cheese.  Everything on the cake is piped buttercream, with the exception of the Delaware hen atop the cake which is fondant.  This was a really fun cake to make, since chickens and cake are equally my most favorite hobbies!

One BIG cake!


This cake was made today using two half-sheet cakes, joined together creating one BIG cake!  The final measurements were 20" x 26", weighing in at about 35 pounds!
One cake was carrot cake filled with cream cheese frosting, while the other cake was a chocolate mayo cake filled with caramel cream.  The entire cake was frosted with cream cheese frosting.
The sunset was done by airbrush, while the sun, egret and marsh grass were done in fondant.
