A Conglomeration....

So, a LOT has been going on since my last blog post! Pretty much the month of July has been extremely hectic and will only get more hectic as this is the only week till the 1st of August that I will be home! Anyway! Angie and I have been hard at work making cakes and have made several these last 2 weeks! We over booked ourselves the last 2 weeks with 3 cakes a week, but we knocked them out and were quite pleased with the outcome! Enough said from the peanut gallery, here are the pics!


This beach cake was made for a lady at Angie's work! The cake itself was something that we had never made before but I have to say that it was SO GOOD! We took a strawberry box mix and then added real strawberries along with some other goodies and it was de-lectable!! :-)

This was a birthday cake for a little boy at church! He absolutely loves Hot Wheels and so we thought what a better way to celebrate his 5th birthday than with a personalized Hot Wheels Cake!! I was so excited that it turned out this nice!! Gavin loved it!



We were asked by a lady at church to make a cake for our church 4th of July picnic.  This is the spread that we came up with! We had a watermelon made out of red velvet cake, the grill cake made out of white cake with a surprise inside! The corn was vanilla cake and the corn was the tops of candy corn.  The tartes are choclate cake filled with cherry pie filling! SO Scrumptious!!!! 


Surprise!!!! It was tie died red, white and blue for the holiday!!! :-)

We made a Mario cake for another little boys birthday! This was the first time that Angie and I had ever tried to work with so much fondant!! It was fun and we thought that it came out really nice! And the best part was that the little boy LOVED it!!!

In the same week a lady had called wanting a Thank You cake, but wanted to sample our cake before she bought it.  So, we came up with this cute little cupcake as a taste tester! She loved it and ordered a half sheet cake Thank You cake from us! Here is the cake!
We hand made the roses which are SO HARD to do!!! But, thankfully what I lack in skill, Angie rocks at and we were able to pump those roses out like nothing! We were pleased at the outcome!!

This I Love Lucy themed cake was made for a girl's sister that I went to high school with...we were very pleased at the outcome of this cake! We themed the cake off of the episode where Lucy and Ethel get the job at the candy shop! Those candies  on the cake are called cake pops and they are absolutely amazingly awesome!! :-)
So, thanks to the wonders of Facebook we had another Mario order because they saw the other Mario cake that we did! We changed the layout and design of this Mario cake to fit the wants and desires of the birthday boy!! We thought it turned out really cute!! Where the up! is the mommy was going to put the number 6 candle on it, which we thought would looks awesome!

Apparently Yo Gabba Gabba is all the rage with the toddlers, I think it's deranged HAHA but none the less we make what is requested of us...and to be brutally honest....this was my favorite cake!!! I thought it turned out SO CUTE!! I hope they liked it as much as we did!!!

So, as you can tell we have been REALLY busy!!! However, we are blessed to be getting all the experience and the compliments about how delicious our cakes taste.  We never thought that it would take off like it has, but we are just very thankful and very blessed that our cakes bring so much joy and happiness on people's special occasions! We hope to be doing this for a very long time!!

Have a SWEET day!
