Hawaiian Baby Shower and a hockey bag...




busy weekend for me, these are 2 of the 9 cakes I did. I had to snap pictures quickly before delivery and there was a terrible thunderstorm outside. You can see how bad the lighting is...plus the hockey bag is sweating..(for those of you not familar with fondant, it will do that sometimes after being taken out of the refrigerator...it dries off in a few hours tho.)

Happy 95th Birthday Euella..

 marble cake with strawberry buttercream and fresh strawberries as filling and frosted with chocolate buttercream.
 These are actuallly my first attempts at sheet cakes. I was unsure of how much of my batter would work in the pan, so I put a llittle too much, so the cakes are very tall...
 vanilla cake with a lemon swiss merengue buttercream filling and frosted with vanilla buttercream.
 Euella has fond memories of the lake house up north, of getting up early and fishing on the pier.
 she also mentioned the Birches...
 I noticed in her nursing home room, that she has alot of cardinal trinkets so I wanted to include those on the cake as well.

These pictures dont include the 95 that are on wires that will be put in the cake at serving time....hopefully I'll get a picture of that and post it later....but the cake is a small 6 inch for her, and the sheet cakes are for serving.

Baby Shower for baby boy...
