Bride-to-be

A sweet lady I worked with at school named Lori is getting married this weekend, and I had the joy of doing the cake for her wedding shower at school. I worked  with Lori my last year of teaching and so enjoyed getting to know her. She is a picture of femininity and sweetness, so I thought her cake should be the same. I was very pleased with the end result. Congratulations, Lori!

Now THAT'S my kind of cake!!

On Friday I had the pleasure of making a birthday cake for my friend Lee's fiance's birthday. It was nice to do a WAHOO cake! The top was the V and cross sabers, and the sides said Go Hoos and Wahoowa. So FUN!

Operation Air, Land, and Sea

My two most recent cakes are described by the title to this post. Sweet Piper picked a dumbo cake for her 6th Birthday accented with pink and green. Dumbo qualifies for "land" AND "air" for all of my non-Disney watching readers.

And for the "sea," I did a cake for our pastor's birthday with the Naval Academy insignia. 

It's hard to tell, but the lettering and border are navy and golden yellow.

Hokie Birthday

The latest cake was a Hokie football cake to celebrate Colin's 6th birthday. It's decked out in maroon and orange and has footballs on the sides of the cake. It turned out really well, but this cake was PAINFUL to do... Not really, but don't get any wrong ideas, my collegiate loyalties still lie solidly with UVA!!

Happy Birthday, Colin! 

The Big 5-0

A family friend of ours celebrated her 50th birthday today, and her daughter (who also happens to be my sister-in-law) had me do a cake for the occasion. She didn't want the typical "over the hill" or anything like that, but something girly with purple and black. Here's what I came up with.

She said it was just what she was looking for. Happy Birthday, Cathy!

Touchdown!!!

Last night I made a 30th birthday cake in the shape of a football field. The 'logo' in the middle of the field was a black circle trimmed in navy and white with the number 30 in the middle. The sides of the cake have footballs on them. Hopefully the cake will score some points with the birthday boy!

Little All-Star

Yesterday I had the privilege of throwing a baby shower for my friend Leslie to welcome her baby boy, Kolton. We did a little all-star theme with blue, red, and orange as the colors. The shower went great, and I think the cake was a home run, too!
