Graduation Cake

This Graduation Cap Cake is a 3 layer Dark Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Frosting, covered in buttercream & fondant.

I'm really enjoying making 3-D cakes!




Housewarming Cookies

These chocolate & sugar cookies were created for a friend who was having a housewarming picnic.  Since it was so close to the 4th of July, I created cookies in both the home
color (purple) and red, white & blue.

Hello Kitty Cookies

I have been dying for a reason to use my new Hello Kitty cutter!

Well, finally I was given an opportunity!  A friend wanted some cookies - just because.  She didn't have a theme and told me I could do whatever I wanted!  So I tried out my new cutter and decided to do some fun summer and princess cookies to go along with Hello Kitty.

Power Ranger Cupcakes

These cupcakes were for a birthday boy who loves the Power Rangers.



They are a Double Vanilla Cupcake with my
Signature Dark Chocolate Frosting.




Thomas The Train Cupcakes

These Double Vanilla Cupcakes with my Signature Dark Chocolate Frosting were for my special birthday boy's school party.

I sent quite a few extra to his school but only one came back - specially set aside for his little brother.  I guess they really liked them!  :-)

Thomas The Train 3-D Cake

This Thomas The Train 3-D Cake was created
for my son's 4th birthday.

It's a dark chocolate cake with dark chocolate
filling topped with buttercream.

Everyone at his party really enjoyed this cake.  I really didn't want to cut into it.  My son not only loved Thomas, he really loved that his name was on it!  :-)





Soccer Ball Cookies

These soccer ball cookies were for my son's 4th birthday party. 

He had his party at an indoor soccer center.

And I must note that soccer balls are one of the hardest cookies to make!  Those pentagons are killers!  I haven't found one cookie decorator who likes making them!

I added black sugar to kick these guys up a notch!  :-)



Pool Party Cookies

These 5 dozen cookies were for an end of school pool party.

I loved working with such bright colors.  The sun with the shades was my favorite!




Dinosaur Cookies

These 4 dozen dinosaur cookies were for a dinosaur themed birthday party. 

Purple, orange and green were the theme party colors. 

I finally had a good excuse to watch Dino Dan with my children! :-)




Beach Theme Cookies for Relay For Life

These  2 dozen beach themed cookies were also for the Relay For Life fundraiser event.

I really loved working with the purple and pink theme colors!



Rely For Life Ribbon Cookies

These 2 dozen ribbon themed cookies were for a Relay For Life Fundraiser. 

The theme colors were pink and purple. 
I had fun creating various cool designs on these guys!
