Sweet 16

We were invited to an amazing young lady's Sweet 16 celebration yesterday, and were asked to bring along a cake too! We were only too happy to oblige. The colours were based on the bithday girl's invitations and her dress colour. The first tier was all chocolate, the second all vanilla and the top tier was vanilla cake with oreos 'n cream buttercream. The cake is shown before and after the topper was added.

Amy and Aleks

Our good friends were married in a romantic, winter wonderland setting in December. Everything was glittery and refined...a truly memorable event! This cake was designed by the beatiful bride, and her lovely daughter, with some help from me. The entire confection was covered in creamy fondant and decorated with icey blue flowers and leaves. I then brushed royal icing on the flowers to give them an icey, just snowed on appearance. The bride added white fresh flowers with seasonal greenery at the venue, but I unfortunately did not bring along my camera. Inside was lemon cake with lemon curd buttercream and chocolate and vanilla cake with alternating layers of oreos and cream buttercream and whipped chocolate ganache. Congratulations Amy and Aleks.

Gingerbread House Cake

My eldest daughter turned 6 right before Christmas. We had a gingerbread themed birthday party where her friends put on Christmas aprons and chef hats and decorated their own cookies to take home. They later decorated a cake that they devoured! Later in the evening, we had a "family' birthday party, where this cake was served. All decorations are fondant. Inside was frecked chocolate orange cake with orange scented buttercream.

Autumn Wedding Cake

This was such a fun cake to make! The leaves in our area have turned lovely shades of colours, and this cake captures some of them. The rich colours of the cake, were highlighted by the reception setting. There was a huge backdrop of lovely autumn leaves! The bottom tier of this cake was chocolate cake with vanilla oreos 'n cream buttercream, the middle tier, vanilla with vanilla buttercream and the top tier was red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. It must have made for a dramatic cutting! All decorations, leaves, acorns, cording were edible.

Fashionista Cake

These cakes were made for a lovely lady. She arrived at her surprise party with her Louis Vuitton purse, so the cake was apropos!!! Everything, except the flower stamens and the jewels on the shoe, is edible. Inside was moist vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream.

Transportation Birthday Cake

The recipient of this cake likes all moving things...cars...trucks...trains...
All transport vehicles were hand cut, and put together like a jigsaw puzzle. Inside were alternating layers of vanilla and chocolate cake with chocolate fudge frosting.

Canadiens Jersey

This jersey was created for a huge Montreal fan, and his even bigger fan of a dad! Inside was vanilla cake with vanilla oreos 'n cream buttercream!
The dad liked the cake..."Showed some people from the office pictures of Matt’s cake and everyone was just floored…I’m still speechless myself".
