Good and Evil Disney Birthday

We all have a little good and evil in us...   Aurora and Maleficent were on tap to help celebrate a caring, lovable, genuine and funny 12 year old.  Thanks to this blog for the instructions and templates- This saved me a ton of time!   Just a note- The figurines are plastic and the backdrop is printed on paper... I have my limits- I'm not THAT good... Here are some pics of the cake coming together...

Ended the night with a beautiful Sunset hanging out with amazing friends and family... Doesn't get much better then that...
Except if you are the birthday girl and you get some great presents! :)

Holy 200!!!

My 200th Blog entry is a cake I made for my Niece's First Holy Communion.  She was so proud and excited for this day!  She said she was waiting for this day since she was 5. As she told the story she kept getting younger... Since I was 4, Since I was in Pre-school...  She is a comedian, that kid!  Her mom reminded her I was making a cake earlier this week and her reply " ohhhh that's right, I'm kind of a big deal"  Yes Lindsey, You are definitely a big deal...

Tractor with Cheese

 My Nephew asked for a Tractor pulling a wagon filled with CHEESE!  He loves' Cheese so that is what he got...  The tractor is made from rice krispie treats and covered with fondant.  Here he is enjoying some of his cheese...

Such a cute Pirate!!! 

Thomas the Train Birthday Party

 My super sweet nephew turns 3!!!  He loves Thomas the Train and trains in general so it was a Thomas celebration.  I tried something new with his cake- I've been watching Paul Bradford Sugarcraft school videos about Ganache.  I coated the outside with Ganache to help make the sides smoother so the fondant would lay nicely against the cake.  It was a little messy but I figured it out.  I think the more I practice, just like with everything, the better I will get...   Here are some pics of my super cute nephew and the making of his cake...
