pumpkin & bee cake

This cake was made for 2 boys; one turning 4 and the other one turning 1!
They had a Carnival party and the 4 year old went as a pumpkin and the little one went as a bee. Hence, this cake's design.
As you can see I put 4 little bees on the pumpkin representing the boy's age, and a little pumpkin in front of the bee, representing the age as well.
I also had the boys' name written on each character.
I really hope they liked it.
Happy birthday boys!!!!!!!

my second Minnie!!!!!!!

Ok, so practice makes perfect. right?
This is better than my first one, don't you think? the bow is definitely nicer and better. I also like the face more than the first's. This is what happens when you get to make the same cake several times; you get to learn from your "mistakes" and change the things you did not like before. Imagine doing like 100 Minnies... I think one could really be close to perfection by that time:)

flower pot cake

I just love how this flower pot cake turned out. I "planted" pink roses and Gerbera daisy.

bible cake

The photo does not do justice to the cake. Black is very difficult to photograph, as you all know, and the camera's flash is not helping at all.

electric guitar cake

Made for a handsome young boy who loved his guitar, so that is all that matters; no point in adding something else.

shoe box & shoe cake

Yesterday it was my good friend Alina's birthday. I never did a shoe box with a shoe and it was more than appropriate for Alina (shoes are quite an obsession for her, as they are for yours truly:))) ), so I decided to make her one.
The name written on the box is one of her favorite shoe stores, the size of the shoe is ....... something we should not reveal.
Like I always say, the number of years and of pairs of shoes that I have is "SECRET":)
The shoe was done free handed, no pattern used, so it took a little bit longer:)
but it came out pretty good for a first try.
If you click on the image you'll see it on a larger format and you'll have a closer view of the shoe.





Happy birthday ALINA!!!!!!!

car wheel cake

I was asked to do a car for the birthday of a guy who just got his driving license as well, but they wanted the inside of the cake to be something light, not sweet, so I went with my yogurt mousse cake, which cannot be sculpted into any shape. So I suggested a car wheel instead. It seemed to me it would be more funny this way, not a car, just a wheel, i thought it would get more laughs, than a car. And so it was. Here is the cake

minnie mouse cake

This is my first Minnie mouse cake. I think I could have done a much better bow, but you know what they say: practice makes perfect.

kids cakes

two cakes for two 1 year olds: one for a boy and one for a girl
