Miss Daisy

 This little cutie is my niece Daisy. Isn't she a doll? Well she just turned two, and I took the opportunity to combine all my favorite things. Pink, ruffles, sparkle, polka dots and bows. Allll on one cake! Luckily Daisy is a girl after my own heart and likes all those things too!

And this is the face you get when you take a bite of her ice cream without asking. Too cute!

I love you Daisy girl!

Seeing Spots

I'll admit that this cake took a lot out of me. Originally I planned on doing something that involved leopard print, but I just wasn't feeling it. Which is crazy, because anyone that knows me at all knows that I love leopard print on anything, at any time. It didn't turn out exactly as I wanted, I didn't have enough time to put as much work into as I would have liked. Even so, I think the finished product is pretty cute.

Chance of Showers

Display cakes are normally one of my favorite things to do, it means I get total creative freedom. Which is generally a great thing. But this week I've come down with a cold, and I feel like my head is full of fluff, which makes being creative extremely hard. So when I was contemplating what to do for bridal shower themed display cakes, one of the designs I went with was pretty literal. Nonetheless I love how it turned out. It's hard to go wrong with polka dots, bows, and a few heart shaped raindrops!

Have a great weekend!

Man Stuff

The majority of the cakes that I decorate are girl oriented. Pink, sparkly birthday cakes, or elegant wedding cakes. For the most part I've shied away from boyish cakes. Not because I can't do them, but because girly is what I like, and what I do best. But every once in a while I put the sparkles away and tackle a "manly cake". This would be one of them. I was excited to have the chance to recreate this backhoe, very similar to some of the equipment in my dad's arsenal of machinery. 

Have a great weekend!

Lazy Sunday

It's Sunday afternoon, probably my favorite time of the whole week. I'm due for a nap, so I'll keep it short! I thought I'd share the finished button cake! Buttons are cute in their simplicity, and are quickly becoming one of my favorite cake design elements. 

 Have a great weekend!

Who's Got the Button

Who's got the button? I do, let me tell ya! This weekend is the City and Baby Trade Show here in my nick of the woods, and we got ourselves a table! We also had the chance to make a little something for the giveaway bags. We decided to go with a "cute as a button theme" for the whole event, which included 300 mini button sugar cookies. That's a lot of cookies people, see for yourself!

 Cookies as far as the eye can see! I also made a display cake to match, sticking with the button theme. Here's a little sneak peak of the cake!

Pictures of the final product tomorrow! If you're in the Lethbridge area, be sure to check out the trade show, there's going to be tons and tons of awesome vendors!
