A few more cakes


Here are the cakes & cupcakes I have done recently...



I made this cake when we had some friends over for dinner. Johanna's husband, Rus, had his birthday the day before, so we decided to continue his bday celebration by eating more cake! This one was SO fun to make! (and it was yummy too!) Waiting to eat the cake just about killed the kids... there was ALOT of begging in my house...







I made this cake & cupcakes for Janet's baby shower.

This next cake was special to me. I printed off a picture of my Nana & Papa on their wedding day. When they passed away, my Dad asked me if I wanted anything from their apartment. The only thing I wanted were the pictures of them when they were young & newly married. Prized possession to me! Anyways, this cake was fro Bryce's birthday. He's cuch a good sport (love that man!!)... I asked him what he wanted to have for a birthday cake & he told me to make whatever I want to practice. Initially, I was going to make a wedding cake (he thought it was a good idea) but I was awake @ 5:30 one very early morning, and I'm not sure if it was b/c I was so tired, but I really didn't have it in me to 'whip up' a 3 tiered wedding cake. I decided to do an anniversary style cake instead. Funny thing is, Bryce didn't find it strange at all to have a 3 tiered wedding cake for a birthday cake, but he thought I was strange to have an anniversary cake with my grandparents on it. I guess it is a little strange... next year I'll make him a really cool, masculine cake! ;)






I had some cupcakes laying around & decided to play around. Here's what I came up with! They were for our weekly Fun Friday treat. They were SOOO good! Mmmmm... wish I had some right now!



This is the first cake I have made for 'profit'. (Don;t know why it's loading up sideways, I'm not going to bothering fixing it though... I have more things to do tonight!) My friend Joanne hates to bake & she asked me to make up a bday cake for her daughter Rachael. So I did! It was fun. (I know, I say that about all the cakes I make... but really, it is fun!)







And that's it for now! I am off, little Dallin just woke up. Time to spend some time with my little man. LOVE HIM! Here's a picture I took of him a week or so ago. (Yes, believe it or not, I do take pictures of my kids and not just cakes!)


He is cute if I say so myself!
