Lacrosse Banquet

Staci's daughter Maddie who previously got a LAX birthday cake from me finished up her lacrosse season a few weeks back. Staci asked me to do a cake very similar to Maddie's birthday cake, but with no writing and two sticks crossed. Great season, girls!

Blue Marble

A while back I did a 16th birthday cake for Danielle, the daughter of one of my husband's coworkers. She was having a big celebration, but didn't really have a theme per se, but wanted a cake that had a blue and white marble effect, with several shades of blue. She was really pleased with the outcome.

Gone Fishin'

My friend Jill's son Ashton just celebrated his birthday recently. He turned twelve and his "party" was all things manly, I think they went 4-wheeling, hiking, fishing, and I don't know what all else! I did a cake to go with the fishing portion of the guy-fest, as if it'd just been reeled in and laid on the dock. Hope your birthday was awesome, Ashton!

A ONEderful First Birthday

My friend Leslie's son Kolton recently celebrated his first birthday. He is SOOOO cute! (Sorry for the aside. that has nothing to do with his cake, but I love him!!) She had me do a cake to match his party decor... stars, polka dots, cute kid-like writing, and lots of primary colors. Hope it was great! The birthdays will just keep on flying by, unfortunately.

Thing 1 and Thing 2 say Happy Birthday to YOU!

My friend Lisa has handsome twin boys who recently turned 4. She wanted to do a Dr. Seuss' Thing 1 and Thing 2 theme. What a cute idea!! I did the sides in red and white stripes like the Cat in the Hat's hat. Hope you guys had a blast!!

Quite the compilation

A few weeks back I did a cake for Ava's 6th birthday. The theme was a Justin Bieber-ish (minus Justin Bieber himself), talent show type of thing. Her mom said Ava wanted something with purple, heart-shaped peace signs, zebra stripes, piano keys, and music notes. I thought, "How in the world am I ever going to put all of that onto a cake and make it look like it actually BELONGS together??". I think it came together nicely after all!

Baptism Cake

Recently I did a cake to celebrate my friend Jenny's son's baptism. She asked for his initials and a pretty cross, with the colors blue and brown. Simple and pretty!
