My Cakes

Around my Daughter Lydia's 2nd birthday I discovered that I have a new talent.

Cake Decorating. It all started when I was surfing on Bettycrocker.com and came across a Barn cake. I watched the Tutorial video on it and was HOOKED. I have not taken any cake classes it has all pretty much been web videos and trial and error. I have had fun with it and also been very frustrated with it but I feel so blessed to be able to pull it off and make a couple Birthday kids thrilled to see how fun their cakes are.

Pirate Cake for my Brother in-law
Kitty Cat Cake for my Niece
Board Shorts cake for my Brother in-law
 
Flip Flop Cake for my Sisters in-law

Pony Cake for my Sister in-law
Sleeping Beauty Cake for Lydia's 3rd birthday
Football Field Cake for a Friend

Slumber Party Cake for my sister inlaw


 This last cake I did (the Slumber Party cake) was my first time making my own Fondant and I was happy to see that it actually turned out pretty good. I may use it in the future.
