Almost a year.....REALLY???

I just realized that it has been almost a year since I have posted anything on this blog! So, here's what I'm going to do.....Just give you a sampling of pictures of the work I have done during the past 12 months.  It's the lazy way, I know......sorry.



 

                                     

Nanny's Birthday Cake

When it's Nanny's birthday, nothing will do but a very special cake.  And here it is!

A Superhero Cake for a Super Birthday Boy!

Bowen wanted to celebrate his birthday with ALL of his favorite superheroes - Batman, Superman, and of course, The Hulk!  I think he got his wish!

A happy birthday boy and his cake!

WWF Cake for a Happy Little Boy!

A former student called for a birthday cake for her 7 year old son.  When I asked what kind of cake, there was no hesitation at all!  WRESTLING!  I wasn't sure exactly HOW I would design such a cake, but I knew there were some "musts" for such a cake. So I did a wrestling ring with a championship belt and a wrestler [who lost his head before the party...LITERALLY lost his head :( ]

Mei-Anna's Shoe Cake

Mei-Anna is my only granddaughter and always will be.  I could write extensively about how God placed her in our family, how He knew exactly who her parents should be...even if they lived half way around the world, how He has His healing hand on her, how He has used HER to help ME heal, how He has allowed us to be blessed by her determination, sweetness, and, yes, stubbornness.

BUT...that's not my story this evening.  My story this evening is about Mei-Anna's 6th birthday cake.  What did she ask for on her cake? Shoes.   Just shoes.  That's it.  MEI-ANNA LOVES SHOES!  So here is what she got for her party!

Happy Mei-Anna Today!

A Daughter's Passion

A mom contacted me about creating a birthday cake for her daughter who has participated in mission trips to Mexico on several occasions.  It was not difficult to choose flavors -- one tier would be Butter Almond and the other would be Chocolate Chili Pepper! But the design was a dilemma!  Her mom and I looked and looked and looked at pictures on the web, searching for just the right cake. FINALLY, we combined a couple of the cakes and came up with this design.

KT, the birthday girl!!
