Flower Birthday Cupcakes!

Well, five years ago today I went into the hospital at 6 a.m. expecting to meet my little girl, so it's fitting I made her birthday cupcakes to take to school today for tomorrow. Tomorrow the 14th is her birthday, she wanted me to wait to meet her until 4-14-04! She is a great blessing and I can't believe she will be five tomorrow :(!
I had a hard time trying to decide what type of cupcake design to make for her, then a friend gave me this awesome flower cupcake pan and I knew when I saw it, it was what she had to have for her birthday!
Stay tuned for the big birthday party cake later in the week. :)

I hope her school friends like them! I am sure her teachers will love me, there is lots of frosting on top! :)

Belle Princess Cake

Today I got to make a Belle Princess cake for a friend of Bryson's. It is a yummy strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream frosting. Then I made Belle out of royal icing and some tiny hearts for accents. I think Belle looks beautiful! I hope they like it!

Tasty Chocolate cake

This was a tasty chocolate cake I made for dessert when some friends came over. It is not the pretties cake, but it tastes really good!.

You take your favorite chocolate cake recipe or even a box and when it calls for water add chocolate milk instead, you can do this for any chocolate cake and stop here or proceed for an even more delicious gooey cake:) Then put in two pans and bake, then when it comes out of the oven, put carmel sauce (maybe a cup) in a bowl and mix with sweetened condensed milk (maybe a 1/2 can) you might want to heat this slightly in the microwave so it blends well. Then take a fork and poke lots of holes in your cake and pore the caramel mixture on top until in sinks in the cake. Use all your mixture it makes it yummy.

Then you can use cool whip or whipped cream for the center of the cake and frost it with your favorite chocolate frosting. I used cocoa frosting. It is rich and yummy!!

Basic Birthday Cake

I made a basic birthday cake for my good neighbors birthday last Thursday. He requested chocolate with buttercream frosting, it was tasty! Happy Birthday!

Train Cake

Well today I got to make a cake for a train birthday, I think it turned out pretty cute! I used a lot of different types of candy to help with the decorations. My husband bought the kids a pez dispenser for Valentines (and a lot of refill packets I hid away :)) and my daughter had the idea to use yellow ones for windows, unfortunately for me she already ate hers, but luckily I had the stashed away extras:) It was very nice of her to offer to share if she had the ones I needed and she had a great idea (she is a great helper)! Hope they have a fun party!

Valentine's cake

Well, today I made a banana nut cake for a friend of mine for a Valentines Day Cake. I wanted to eat some of it, it is the yummiest recipe! The decorations are done in fondant.

At the last minute I did add her son's name and baby, for the arrival next week on the two hearts at the bottom. Hope she liked it:

25th Anniversary Cake

I just finished this 25th Anniversary cake. It is for my mother-in-laws best friend. It is a pretty large cake, the flavor is Italian Cream. I hope they like it!
