baby stuff

Here is some baby stuff that I made for a Christening cake that I'll not be able to make, as I'll be on the beach:))
Somebody else will be making the cake and will be adding all these items to it. I hope it comes out nice.
They are so cute, I just had to share:)

Zebra diaper cake

I love zebras. The white zebra pattern ribbon is made using a permanent marker:). Couldn't find any in the stores, so I made my own.

Meteo's soccer ball cake

Mateo turned 4 yesterday and he wanted a soccer ball cake. He is a big fan of CFR team, so I dressed the player in CFR's colors.  Due to the heat and humidity my cake started to loose its shape while I kept it out on the table to decorate it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATEO!!!!!!!!

lady bug and daisy Christening cake

 Just imitating one of Anne Heap's fabulous designs here. The beautiful mum wanted something with ladybugs or daisies so I showed her this design by Anne Heap and she liked it so I got the chance to make it myself.
Very fit for a little cute girl.

Fruit and chocolate Christening cake

I was soo looking forward to this cake. I love this type of cakes. And now being the season of all these wild fruits I fully took advantage of it. I would love to do a 5 tier cake just like this one. I think it would look amazing.

hungry bookworms cake & how to instructions

A last minute order for a little girl and boy. Didn't know what to make so I went with a Debbie Brown design, once more.
This is my version of it. I went with two bookworms; a girl and a boy.
 And these are the pages explaining this cake.

Again, THANK YOU Brandusa.


fondant button how to





As promised I photographed the pages from the cake decorating book Brandusa sent me, so that you can all see how these fondant buttons can be made. Not at all difficult,  and so cute. I absolutely love mine.
Looking forward to doing some more soon.

Espana vs Deutschland

Spain wooooooooooooooooon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can guess who we were cheering for, right?

Sangria was the obvious choice, for a true Spanish supporter.

My husband prepared it so I am going to post the recipe as well.

during the game...
...and after we won...


There are money in my jeans:))
Not only did Spain win, but I too won. We all placed our bets before the game started, regarding the final score, and I was the only one to say Spain would win by 1:0. So... I got to take home everyone's money:)))

Still Germany's no 1 fan:)))))


Go Spain!

I haven't featured anyone in a while, but I guess I was just waiting for someone as special as this guest.

How cool is that? 15 and already found a passion in life.
She is a fan of my work and she has been writing to me, asking questions about this wonderful world of cakes, and she has also sent me pictures of one of her cakes.

I think she did a great job on this cake. I have to say it again. she is only 15!!!!!
I am so amazed by this girl.
I hope you continue down this road. I am sure you will be a great cake decorator some day.
Melinda, practice makes perfect!the most important advice I could give you, believe me.
