Coming Up: 2 Year Old Goldfish Birthday

I am so excited for my Upton's 2 year Goldfish themed birthday party coming up next weekend. Here is what I will be working on:

I'll be making a similar cake ball cake. Hopefully will be less mess for the Toddlers!

I love the table decor here. Lots of orange and blue, and of course, Goldfish!

I can't wait!!

Latest Cakes

It's been a while since I updated my blog (or blogs for that matter), so here are some cakes that I've made since my last post...

Adler's Birthday Cake

Finally got pics of Adler's Yoda cake uploaded from his big Star Wars 4th Birthday Party. The cake was a hit, and a lot of fun (and maybe a little bit of a pain) to make! :)

Can't believe my baby is 4. He is growing so fast, I guess it is good we are about to start over with a second one! :)

4th Birthday Cupcakes

So, being the obnoxious overachieving mom that I am, I not only bake the cake for the birthday party, but I bring cupcakes for Adler's class as well. These are what I am working on for Friday:

They are Peanut Butter Ball Chocolate Cupcakes. I made the peanut butter balls last night. There is probably nothing I love more than the combination of PB and Chocolate. So these are going to be dangerous!

More pics to come on my progress...

New-ish Cake and Cupcake Designs

The Longhorn cupcakes for TX/OU weekend

I have been terrible (as usual) about posting my latest creations, so here are some of them from Fall 2010 to Winter 2011...





The finished product





The Thomas The Train cake I made for our friend's little boy. It was a hit!

No, I didn't make this. But It's my next project. Adler's 4th birthday cake! Wish me luck!

Baby Shower Cake

I found this picture and realized I had never posted it. It's a baby shower cake I made for Kevin's second cousin's friends....is that clear enough...good.

Here it is:

Success!

So the chocolate cake that I made for (now I can tell you who it was for) Brandon's surprise birthday party turned out great!! It was a little scary there for a little while because it's all chocolate....in August...in Texas!

But here is the final result:

I think it came out lovely. Everyone seemed to love it! And it didn't melt, which was definitely a plus!

So yay! One new technique tackled!
