Mini Shower Cake

This lady doesn't know if she's having a boy or girl. I had a little fun with that:

MHS Graduation Cake #3


So this is MHS graduation Cake #3...back where I started (see cake #1 here). (And also this one here). I'd say it's my best yet. The cookie hats are the same. But I got the coloring for Maroon down just right this time. Happy 4 Year Anniversary of Cake Decorating for me. The Adventure continues!

Fr. Orosco's Installation



Our Pastor had a reception after his Installation Mass. He requested a cake with the Shield of the Diocese. This was different for me because I figured out how to make a pattern and use it to duplicate the picture I was given.

Disco Birthday Cake


Well, you know I'm a perfectionist. So this cake isn't perfect but it was a fun experiment. This was for my aunt's 40th birthday. The "4" is in the shape of bell-bottoms and the "0" is supposed to be a disco ball. My "gray" color got too dark once it set, but I have "silver" edible sprinkles on top to help it shimmer.

Cars and Road Cake


My son doesn't like the "in" stuff this year (like Elmo, Thomas the Train, Diego). Instead he's into "Peter Pan", "101 Dalmations", and "Mary Poppins". Well, I just couldn't find anything to decorate cakes with on these themes...and frankly didn't have enough energy to make something from scratch. SO...I settled for good old cars. He DOES play with hot wheels all day, so this IS appropriate I guess. (Note: The cars are new...not the ones he plays with....I just had to say that)

Jamie made him these road cupcakes.

Bella's Baptism


Look familiar??? Well it's sort of like Gianna's Cake below, but BETTER! (well, I didn't just give birth before this cake) The Cross is 3D again, but the roses have more detail and the sides are decorated.

Squires

This cake is for the Squires at St. John's. They are a group created by the Knights of Columbus for young boys. (J.C. helps lead and mentor them). They are an awesome group of guys and they do lots of services for the community and church, especially for the prolife movement. I'm very proud of them and was happy to make this cake for their yearly celebration. I copied the symbol off of their shirt. You can see the 2 side by side here:
