Princess Cake # 1

This cake is made with a real Barbie doll. The dress can be the only cake or it can be placed on a base like this one.

Happy Birthday, Abby! June 2006!

Easter Bunny Version 1 and Cupcakes

This cake and cupcakes were made for Evan's 1st Adoption day
which was also Easter day, April 15, 2006.

The Table!

Cupcakes with jelly bean faces, marshmallow ears, etc.

Evan's little fingers left a print where he tried to pull off an ear. :-) The Bunny's fur was coconut covering strawberry icing. He also had a cute cotton tail made from 3 large marshmallows.

Barn Yard Cake and Cow Cupcakes

This was Evan's first cake and the first that I ever made. It was made for
his second birthday, just a month after we brought him home. It was such a
special time and it certainly called for a special celebration.
Happy 2nd Birthday Evan. June 28, 2005

How I got started...

I had always enjoyed making cakes for Evan and I had been praying about a way to make a little extra money. I felt so blessed to be at home but just wanted a way to contribute a little bit of money to my family. Then one day, I talked to a friend of mine and she told me that I should start selling cakes...the rest is history and I still enjoy it. I enjoy taking the time while I'm working on the cake to pray for whomever I am making it for.

And just for the record...all cakes are homemade with
homemade Buttercream Frosting!! The Best!!

A Couple of Paintings...

Welcome Home Jack! This was done for a friend of mine who did her son's bathroom in Frogs. December 2005

I painted a purse for my niece when she was born that I still need to add.

Diaper Cake w/ real diapers

This was made several years ago for a baby shower that my friend Kerri and I hosted. I found the picture so I thought I would add it here.
