Green Monster Cupcakes

These green monster cupcakes were inspired by the "Planet Cake" book. They were a lot of fun to make for Halloween. The cupcakes are almond flavored with chocolate ganache and vanilla fondant. The black part (the mouth) is made of chocolate fondant.

Halloween Cake

I made this two layer almond and chocolate ganache cake for a Halloween party. It's covered in white vanilla fondant and the bats are also vanilla fondant. The swirls are made of black royal icing.

Birthday Cake

I finished a Birthday cake today. I was asked to make it for a 14 year old boy. One of his favorite colors is green so I thought this color scheme might be cool and not too girly. The cake is vanilla with chocolate buttercream filling and vanilla fondant. Black fondant stars and a "14" tops the cake!

Baby Shower Camouflage Cake

Today we finished the three tier camouflage cake for a baby shower tomorrow. It turned out to be a little bit of a nightmare. Because the fondant was so dark, it was tricky to perfect (unlike lighter colors, the darker ones show more flaws). But here it is! It consists of 10", 8", and 6" squares. The cake is basic white almond with vanilla buttercream and a layer of fresh strawberries. The fondant is also almond flavored (tastes great with strawberries). The cake is topped with a camouflage bow to match the baby's nursery decor and baby shower theme.
