Peacock Cupcakes

Italian Creme and Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes both filled with Fresh Whipped Cream.

Custom design to resemble a peacock feather.

Cake from May

I found some pictures from the Bauer wedding that I posted about here.

This is just a re-post for keeping records.

Bauer Cake

Forgive me, I took these pictures with a cell phone camera. This is my "sugnature" cake I guess. All three wedding cakes I am booked for this year take on the scroll swirl design and theme.








The two bottom tiers are white cake with cream cheese filling, the top layer was carrot cake with cream cheese filling. This particular bride (who was a redhead) loved my carrot cake so she specifically asked for the top layer to be her personal cake. :)

The grooms cake* was a dark chocolate sheet cake with a fudgey basketweave on the side of the cake. The bride chose the You Tube logo on the cake because the groom loves the site.

More on the traditions of the grooms cake: A groom’s cake has its roots in the South, and although it used to be viewed as an added and unnecessary expense, this once-neglected cake has been making a huge comeback. Intended to be a gift from the bride to the groom, the groom's cake is usually dark and designed with a nod towards what's traditionally considered "masculine" Although you do not need a groom’s cake, you just may want one. The groom's cake can serve many purposes, from dessert at the rehearsal dinner, to an alternative choice to the bride's cake at the wedding. It's customary for the groom's cake to be displayed next to the bride's cake, and later cut and put into boxes for guests to take home. And believe it or not, legend has it that single women are supposed to sleep with a slice under their pillow the same night they receive it -- and if they do, they will dream of their future husband. A current creative trend in groom's cakes is to have the cake reflect the groom's interests and hobbies.

lyon & lara's cake

Top tier: Two layer strawberry cake with fudge filling.

Middle tier: Three layer chocolate, strawberry, chocolate cake with fresh whipped cream filling.

Bottom tier: Three layer strawberry, chocolate, strawberry cake with fresh whipped cream filling.

The cake was iced with a whipped cream/buttercreme icing and decorated with chocolate swirls.

The bride and groom requested the cake have chocolate dipped strawberries on top. It was adorable to see their personality in the cake, Lyon and Lara are both red-heads.

January Wedding

Top tier was chocolate with fudge filling.
Middle tier was white cake with lemon filling
Bottom tier was marble cake with fudge filling.
The entire cake was iced with buttercreme icing, a bead border and swirled designs.
I embellished the cake with white chiffon, snowflake hair pins and a silver "s" cake topper.

My first wedding cake

This wedding cake (pictured above) was an assignment to complete an Advanced Pastry course. At the end of the semester at BYU-Idaho, all students created a wedding cake to be displayed at the Floral and Bridal show. The cake itself, is inedible but was iced with buttercreme and marshmallow fondant. It has a unique southern twist with the ruffled skirt around the cake and a femine splash of pink.

The same week, I was asked to use this cake as a display at a wedding reception.
