Wilton's New Course 4
Wilton has created a new Advanced gumpaste flower course, starting this February. It is going to be a real blast. These are the sample cakes I made to display in the store. The first is to showcase the very fun Gerbera Daisy (One of my favorite flowers). The second cake showcases all the other flowers the course covers. Stargazer lily, sweet pea, Stephenatotis, ivy leaves, blossoms, and briar rose. This course shows you how to make the flowers and leaves on wire to create stunning floral sprays. I super excited to start teaching it.
Onalee's 1st birthday, Cowgirl
My brother and sister-in-laws daughter was celebrating her 1st birthday. They asked me to do a cowgirl style birthday. So my 4 year old that always wants to help me make cakes, helped with the cupcakes. She was quite insistant that she help ice the cupcakes and roll the sides in sprinkles. So with some guidance, that she accomplished. I made the fondant toppers for the cupcakes and my 4 year old helped place them on top. The cake was is red velvet cake with cream cheese/ marscopone icing. The cowgirl hat was made of a gumpaste/fondant 50/50 blend. The white daisy on that my 4 year old actually made after I showed her how. She also made the little pink blossom flowers on the bottom of the cake embleshing the rope border. The cake was super fun and cute to create. Thanks for having a birthday Onalee and having me make the cake.

Elmo Cake
Farm Birthday, EI EI O
Winter Wedding
My Family Tree
I created this cake to celebrate the baby blessing of my first baby. When this cake was made I was living in a super small efficiency apartment with the smallest kitchen ever and hardly any counter space. I tried making the people and tree out of vanilla and chocolate tootsie rolls. I'm sure glad for a bigger kitchen now. Again cake was created in 2007.
