Happy 9th Birthday Grace!

My cousin Grace celebrated her 9th birthday this week and we all went over to her house to help celebrate. Grace just redecorated her bedroom in pink and green, so i decided to use these colors in her birthday cake. The cake was Devils Food chocolate (per her request!) and the frosting was hot pink butter cream. I used green ribbon around the bottom and glitter clip on butterflies for decoration. It's one of my favorite cakes so far. I think Grace liked it a lot too!









Superbowl XLIII


I made these cupcakes for Germana and Roger's Superbowl XLIII party. I used a chocolate cream filled cupcake recipe from Food and Wine Magazine. The chocolate cupcakes turned out a little drier then I hoped, but the cream inside helped. The frosting was a buttercream. I used chocolate covered almonds and white icing for the footballs.





Mike and Max's First Birthday!

My good friend Katy's twin boys celebrated their first birthday in January. I had the honor of making their birthday cakes! Each twin got a 6inch chocolate cake with blue, buttercream frosting. I also made a sheet cake for the rest of the party guests. The party was a lot of fun, and Mike and Max seemed to love the cakes...or at least getting as messy as possible from them!
