St. Patrick's Day


Here is a cake I made for my family on the day of green. To make the rainbow you just bake a small 4" round cake. Cut it in half and the carve out the middle. Then stand it up. It is very easy and the kids go wild.

Love


Chocolate chip cookies a delicious but, when you add butter cream icing they are divine. I baked this cookie for my hubby on Valentines Day. I truly have a GREAT husband.

Lucky Day


St. Patrick's Day is a fun day. I love the color green. This is a cake for Daphy's class . I did the stand up rainbow especially for the kids. Her teacher said the kids loved it.

A Day Of Love


I love to make cakes for the kids. This cake was made for Daphy's class on Valentines Day.

Shelly's Birthday


My sister in law Shelly is into American Idol and asked me to make her this cake for her birthday.

Nana's Birthday


I have a wonderful mother in law. She always helps me with my kids and I can always count on her. For her birthday I made this cake. It has homemade chocolate butter cream icing on it. FYI: the homemade butter cream icing is better if you use semi sweet chocolate chips instead of cocoa alone.

Musical Birthday


A special Thank You to my sister in law Shelly. She requested I make this cake for our schools music teacher.

Jessica's Wedding


My ex-brother in law asked me this cake. It was for his step daughter's first wedding and I was honored to get to be a part of their happy day.

Thanksgiving


Daphne's teacher asked me to make a turkey cake for their Thanksgiving Feast. I did a stand up turkey because I thought the kids would like it. Daphy is autistic as well as some of the children in her class and they love to look at the cakes.

Haleigh's Birthday


This is a cake I made for my step daughter Haleigh. She rides horses so I did a horse cake. I have my wonderful husband to thank for the opportunity to make her a cake.

John's Birthday


Mom asked me to make her hubby John a cake for his birthday. She picked out the flower not me.

Girly's Birthday


My niece Lexy wanted a castle cake for her birthday. I made her this cake. The towers are ice cream cones with waffle cones on top. Covering the cones with icing shingles took the longest time.

Daphne's Birthday


On this cake I was trying to make Daphy a Jojo's Circus cake. It kinda looked more like an Easter egg than a circus tent but Daphy thought it was great.

Bubba's Birthday Party


Bubba loves any kind of large equipment so, I made him a front end loader cake for his party. He was sooo excited about the cake. It was a lot of work and I hated cutting it.

Big Bubba


I made two cakes for my son Bubba this year. His actual birthday fell on a week day. This is the cake I made him for that day.

Girly


This is my niece Lexy with her pumpkin cake. I helped her with some of the icing but, the rest she did herself. She is such a prissy thing that I call her Girly.

Halloween


For Halloween I ended up making three cakes. Calvin wanted one for class as well as Daphne. Then my niece Lexy wanted to make one. This was Calvin's pumpkin.

Sea Shells and Wedding Bells


This was a Hawaiian themed wedding cake. It was cool whip icing which is not usually a good idea in the summer time. Not outside anyway. It did turn out very beautifully.

Brownies




I love to make brownies and put butter cream icing on them. I made the "Congradulations" cake for a friend that got married. The other was for Labor Day.

A cake for Dad!


This cake I made for my husband Michael. He went to Texas for two weeks to work. When he came home I had a huge dinner and this cake for him. We really missed him.

Brice's Birthday


My mother in law asked me to make this cake for Brice. I tried to use bright boy colors.

Daphne's Birthday




My daughter Daphne was really into Barney for a while. I found a preformed pan and made her this cake. FYI: it is easier to buy ready made black icing than to try and mix it your self.

Happy Face Cake


At the begining of the school year I made this cake to welcome back our lunch ladies. We really appreciate them. Plus my mother in law is a lunch lady.

Heather's Birthday


My sister in law Shelly asked me to make this cake for her best friends birthday. I really owe Shelly a debt of gratitude, she has asked me to make a lot of cakes. Without her I wouldn't be getting good at this.

I had a lot of fun with this cake. The stand up tree was great and the snow is coconut. I also made the children who were in the recitle ice cream cone cup cakes with thier names on them.

I make these cakes for the kids. The look on thier faces make it all worth while.

Batman


My mom asked me to do this cake for one of her coworkers grandsons. He was turning five and loved Batman.

Landon is my nephew and he is into army stuff. He was really excited about this cake.

C.E.B. 50th Anniversary




Thanks to my sister in law Shelly I was invited to do a bee hive cake for the 50th aniversary at Charles E. Bennett elementary school. The support system for this cake took longer to design than the cake it self.

Happy Birthday to my niece Lexi. This cake was made from a preformed flower pan. The hard part was the out lines and coloring. It turned out very well and Lexi was happy. I made her the doll special because she is so girly.

Kacey's Birhtday




I did this cake for my niece Kacey's birthday. I made a regular square cake. On top I made a 8" round cake, cut it in half and stood the pieces up side by side. Last I shaped it to look like Herbie.
