Cake Pop Chickens.

The Chickens are cake pops. The "eggs" are chocolate covered raisins.

A Hamburger Today...

This one was a lot of fun to make and tasted great too!

May the Force Be With You.

Made from an early 80's Wilton Cake pan of which I need to add a photo as well.

VW Bug Cake

This is the cake I made for a friend for her wedding. It was the groom's cake which was modeled after a car that he owns.

This is what the cake looked like after it came out of the mold. This is the pan I used:here

The top was too flat for a VW bug so I rounded it out using frosting and pieces of cake I had cut off the bottom.

This is after I laid the fondant down. It's not perfectly smooth at the back, I had a hard time covering the odd shape.

This is the final project. I think it turned out well overall.

A Hamburger Today

Right before Elliott's birthday I came across a blog about these cupcakes. Someone had actually mistaken her cupcakes for a slider. They were pretty disappointed that it wasn't real meat. I thought the whole thing looked pretty cool so I had to try it.

Chocolate Cupcakes

Yellow Cupcakes

 I made the two different kinds of cupcake and a few different colors of frosting, including red and yellow.

A little bit of green-colored coconut and some sesame seeds and it was finished.
