A quick picture of a cake I did this weekend for a friend's 2 year old, Emily. The cake was chocolate with a layer of oreos in the middle frosted with cream cheese frosting. From what I heard, it was a huge hit. ;-)

I know there are many, MANY UND fans out there, hopefully they will appreciate my newest creation. . .I thought about going the easy route and doing the green/white more geometric logo that the college has, but this is what I think of, when I think of UND. :) Plus, I always like a challenge. I'm not happy with the writing on the cake, the frosting was a bit too stiff...better luck next time! :)
Here are some photos of a cake I made this weekend. The flavor was Key Lime with cream cheese frosting. I made all the decorations on it with Wilton Gum Paste. :) You can find the recipe for the cake HERE. The cupcakes that went along with the cake were the Cherry Almond Vanilla flavor. I used half a cherry and piped frosting on the top to kind of mimic a fishing bobber. :)
These were the final kind of cupcakes I made for Christmas, I'm a little late at getting them posted, but better late than never, right? I had made a different recipe for Red Velvet cupcakes before and hadn't been too impressed. A coworker suggested I try a recipe from Paula Deen, so that's what I went with this time around. I think they definitely had more flavor than the previous recipe I had tried. The frosting was a huge hit with my almost 2 year old Niece! Who doesn't love cream cheese frosting!? :) I'm still not sure what all the hype over "red velvet" is about, but to each their own.
You can find the recipe HERE, y'all. :-) Check back next week for pictures of a 30th birthday fishing theme cake and cupcakes I'm making on Saturday! I also have another Elmo face cake to make for my Niece's party on Saturday as well. I'm excited to get back to being crafty in the kitchen! :) |
