in cake, Sweet Sevens Cakes

It’s been forever since I posted any pictures of cakes I have done for clients. Over a month!  Yes, I am still doing them…more than ever! In fact, I have done so many, that I haven’t even been able to photograph all of them.  That bums me out, too, because some of them were really pretty!

So, here’s a look at a few of my cakes.  Hope you like them!

And since I am on the subject of cakes, guess what?  I am teaching a Cake Decorating Class later this month! Yep, ME!  It’s an Intro to Cake Decorating.  Basically, it’s the kind of class I wish I had been taught YEARS ago…How to make yummy buttercream – REAL buttercream, not the all Crisco deal that most cake classes adhere to.  Then, how to pipe borders, make a few flowers, how to write and not make it look horrible, and then a glimpse into the world of fondant.  Everything you need to know in order to be able to go home and make a cake that you can be proud of. 

I’ve even lined up a repeat class for next month, as well as a fondant course, SO, if you are in the area, please send me an email of you are interested and I will get you the official info. I’d LOVE to have some of my readers there!

Until next time folks, keep safe and warm, and beware the next winter storm!!

Very cool! How fun to teach a class!

That tool box cake would be a huge hit here with Mr. and my 2 1/2 yr old boy! =)

Beautiful! The toolbox and the fish are my favorites. :)
Good luck with your class! I'm guilty of using all Crisco, but I live in Georgia. Butter has a tendency to uh, droop, in the summertime. But I've perfected my recipe so it tastes ALMOST like real buttercream. No complaints yet! Let me know if you want the recipe. :)

I love your cakes, I know how to make buttercream but I sure would like to know how to do writing that doesn't look horrible! The toolbox and the cocktail cake are awesome!

Amazing cakes! Wish I lived nearby so I could take your class, I have always wanted to learn how to decorate cakes.

Just started a Wilton fondant class at Michael's – the teacher actually told me that I CANNOT use real butter in the class buttercream – only the class icing which is Crisco, flour, butter flavoring and vanilla flavoring (the fake kind). So I asked, "Well, what about like a Swiss Meringue Buttercream?" and she had no idea what that was…I sure wish I lived near you and your classes! I have a real aversion to Crisco!
