From the reports that I have received, the cake was a hit. Everyone loved the flavor, it was a french vanilla with a strawberry filled topped with sliced strawberries then iced in a butter creme.
The Fleur de Lis cake was for a graduation party. The young lady requested a chocolate cake through and through with aqua accents and the fleur de lis. I cut the fluer de lis out using my cricut. Added to pearl border to girly it up. Reports were that several people who don't usually eat cake when back for seconds. This cake was based on the White Almond, Sour Cream cake. I just used a chocolate cake mix.
Off to bake more cakes!!!
This is my first wedding cake. I made this for my assistant principal who was married over the Memorial Day Holiday. I had alot of fun doing this cake. Lessons I learned? I must remember that all colors get darker and more vivid over time. This cake was supposed to ivory, but it looks way to orange for me. The bride seemed pleased with it.
This was a wedding shower cake. This cake showcases my first attempt at fondant flowers and the new flourish set I had bought. I really love the way these daisies turned out. The brides mother was very pleased. Just before delivery, she came over and helps place all the flowers and added the antique gold fleur de lis. She was very happy and so was her daughter.
This cake was for a lovely couple's 50th Wedding Anniversary. It was my first attempt at gumpaste bows and flowers. See I did better on my ivory color on this cake. Live and Learn!!!
A close-up of the flowers. Time consumsing but soooo worth it.
My first loopy bow, again, time consuming but sooooo worth it.
