Next up is Irene’s son’s Super Hero birthday party she put together.  She designed and made all the desserts for it.  I also love the background she made for the dessert table.  She took comic book pages and blew them up and framed them…what a great idea!

Custom cakes are a lot of fun making and this next poker themed birthday cake was no different.

We created an elegant 40th birthday cake based off the client’s invitation.

Wish I had more photos of this Guinness Beer cake Kyong did.  It looked so amazing in person!

This Fedora hat cake was a lot of fun to make.  I loved getting to carve it and how it came to life with the stitching and details.

Kyong recently made this adorable cake for a couple who loves beach camping in the VW Vanagon…too much fun!

Guy cakes are sometimes hard to master, but I think this muscle car cake came out pretty good!

Lastly, Kyong did a spot on hand painting of the Coppertone Kid label with a graduation twist on the theme.  The client loved the beach and was a free spirit at heart.

Thanks so much for stopping by…let us know what cake you liked the best!

I used my favorite chocolate cake recipe from Ina Garten and then added coffee whipped cream filling and covered the cake in chocolate mousse buttercream.   

I used cookie cutters to cut out the diploma and graduation cap fondant accents and then used royal icing to pipe the borders around the shapes.  

Congratulations to all the grads out there!
