Sunshine Bear Miniature Cake

A "smash" cake for a 1st birthday girl. It's a devil's food cake with fluffy buttercream frosting. Simple & cute sunshine bear cake.

Red & Orange Butterfly & Flower Cake

I really love the colors in this cake! I had specific instructions from the birthday girl to do red & orange butterflies, flowers and a sun, also with grass and this is what I came up with. I hope I executed it well :-) It's a chocolate cake with fluffy buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. It's a cutesy cake!

Fancy Nancy Miniature Cake

A miniature Fancy Nancy cake for a young girl's fourth birthday with the family. I did a bigger one (red & orange butterflies & flowers) for her party. This is vanilla cake with strawberry filling and fluffy buttercream frosting. The stripes are marshmallow fondant. I think this cake is darling EXCEPT for her face. I'm thinking she's looking like one of the chipmunk girls. I definitely need some practice on faces.

Peace, Love & Happiness Graduation Cake

This is an 8th grade graduation cake for a girl who's motto of life is "peace, love & happiness." The school mascot of a viking is placed on top for school spirit! It's a marble cake with fluffy buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. I had to go two tier because I don't own any sheet cake pans yet. And honestly, I think rounds are so much prettier anyway :-)

Elegant Scroll Birthday Cake

Cake for my father-in-law's birthday and Scott's Aunt's birthday celebrated together at Alpine Park as a family. It's a yellow cake with raspberry cream filling and fluffy buttercream frosting. I had barely any time to work on this one as it was a busy weekend in the Nelson household. The picture is showing a ripple at the bottom of the cake and I don't know why. I looked at the cake several times to found out why and there was no ripple, it was perfectly straight. Crazy camera! I love doing scrolls. I only hope I can get much, much better at them!

Purple Iris Birthday Cake

A 70th birthday cake made of purple iris's. It's a dark chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and a fluffy buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. I think it turned out very pretty.

Together on Planet Mom Cake

My final MOPS cake for the year. This is not a giveaway but for everyone to enjoy. I was hoping for an entire globe but had trouble so we get half of it. It's supposed to be somewhat similar to next year's theme for MOPS. The bottom tier is a dark chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and the top tier is a vanilla cake with raspberry cream filling. The frosting is a fluffy buttercream and a marshmallow fondant for the accents.

Chocolate Pound Cake

This is a cake I make often as a gift. Happened to have the camera sitting nearby and thought I'd take a picture. It's a chocolate pound cake with a chocolate glaze.

Baby Boy Shower Cupcakes

For a baby shower. Dark chocolate cupcakes with raspberry filling and a new yummy frosting recipe given to me by a very talented pastry chef :-)

Tiffany Blue Cakes

My final MOPS giveaway cake for the year. A dark chocolate cake with raspberry cream filling and vanilla buttercream frosting. The little cakes were for each of the girls at my table.
