Goodbye Texas, Hello Alaska!




This cake was made to say goodbye to our dear friends the McP's when they left Texas to be stationed in Ft. Richardson, Alaska with the Army. The cake was a round cake stacked with a dome cut at a slant with a rectangle on top for the glacier and small cake pieces for the mountains, all iced with buttercream. The sand is made of graham cracker crumbs and the trees of Airhead candies. The Alaska part was inpsired by the state seal of Alaska and the Texas portion of course by the state flag.

Cupcake Frames



For one of my sisters birthdays in High School I made cupcakes to take for her to share at lunch. To make it fun I created picture frames with the cupcakes to frame some great shots of us together.

Volleyball Cake


Keegan's passionate about many things, one of which is volleyball - so the first year we were married I made him this 3D volleyball cake with white icing and black ribbon, made complete with crumbled sugar cookies to look like sand.
