Spiderwick Chronicles Cake


It was a last minute decision to make Logan's birthday cake according to a Spiderwick Chronicles theme, so I kind of ran out of time for all my ideas. But here it is. Butter-vanilla cupcakes with vanilla frosting. The house is made out of chocolate cookie dough. The recipe worked pretty good since it did not run during baking.

Red Velvet Wedding




When my friend Christie got married, she wanted a red velvet cake. And since the wedding was held in the Chinese Room of the Smith Tower she wanted an Asian inspired design. So we settled for a three layer square cake (12", 8", 4") with white cream cheese frosting and red and violet royal icing flowers.

Roses







When Lisa turned 50, she wanted a carrot cake with white frosting and flowers. Since there would be children at the party, Lisa was concerned with crisco flowers. We decided on royal icing for the flowers. which turned out pretty cute.
