I made this cake for a bride who was married early in August. This is the biggest cake I have ever made. Each layer is white cake with a different flavor filling-lemon, chocolate, strawberry, and raspberry sour cream. I also made a sheet cake that was chocolate cake with Oreo filling. I was a little nervous about how the cake would hold up outdoors in the Vegas heat, but heard all was well.

Pink Buckle Wedding
I made this cake for a bride who was married early in August. This is the biggest cake I have ever made.

I was a little nervous about how the cake would hold up outdoors in the Vegas heat, but heard all was well.
Spiderman Cake & Cupcakes
I made this cake and cupcakes for a little boy who was turning 4. The cake was small so we used small action figures instead of making them with fondant. It was a marble cake with marble cupcakes. The birthday boy requested green and blue cupcakes.
Daffy Duck
A client asked me to make a Daffy Duck cake. They wanted the package to be red with silver ribbon. I can't really make silver, so I had to get a real ribbon. The character was made of fondant.

Camryn's Baptism Cake
I made this cake for my daughter's baptism. One layer was a white cake with strawberry filling and the other was chocolate cake with Oreo filling. Camryn had the flu that day, and while she made it through the baptism, she wasn't up to eating cake and we had to save her some.
What's New in Your Kitchen?
What's in your kitchen? Or better yet, what do you want new in your kitchen? For me personally, I could do some online window shopping for kitchen stuff for the majority of the day if I had the time. For instance new pots, pans and some bakeware is what I would be looking for right now.
Since the summer days have been way hotter than usual, I've been keeping cool indoors and just cruised around online to admire some new kitchen items. I did come across one website I liked called K & Co shop and they have a few homeware items that I were nice and a few that I never seen before. They had a lot of colorful kitchen items and that's the direction I want to go in is adding color to my kitchen without having to paint. Here are a few that I liked so far while just glancing through:
The color orange is nice and plus I like the grill marks in the frying pan. I never had a cast iron pan before, but I heard they are good to cook with. This is the JML Country Cookware set.

I don't know why I would buy this since I don't make casseroles, but I thought the dish looked cool, plus it's in my favorite color. This is Prestige This Morning Casserole Dish.
I know my kids would love for me to make big ole cupcakes, so the JML Big Top Cupcake would be fun to bake with.
And I thought this frying pan was pretty cute. It's from Jamie Oliver and if you're not able to read what it says, on the bottom of the pan it says "I'm Cooking, You're Washing Up". Haha, love it!
Ok, your turn. What is on your kitchen wishlist that you would like to get?

Princess Peach Car Cake
A client asked for a Princess Peach cake, like one a had made a few months ago. Due to a time crunch this week, I agreed, but needed to use a toy topper rather than spend several hours making Princess Peach out of fondant. The cake still turned out cute. The top layer was white with a strawberry filling and the bottom layer was white and chocolate with an Oreo Filling.
