Wedding Cake(s)

these cakes were done for my friend heather's wedding. i thought i'd post one before we put flowers and one with the flowers. the red gerbera daisies just change the look of the cakes - that's why i posted both!

each cake was a different flavor - strawberry, chocolate, yellow, and red velvet

without flowers:

with flowers:
the groom's cake - it was red velvet.

Grant's fish cake

i made this cake to match an invitation!

to match an outfit...

these cakes were done for my friend, jill easley. her daughter was turning 1 and was goign to be wearing this outfit for her birthday party!

so we did these cakes to match! i tried to pull just the sweet pink and green out of the outfit and keep the rest simple. i thought these were so sweet for a little girl!



snail cake

this cake was done for a baby shower. shea e-mailed me a copy of the invitation (that SHE made!) for a shower for her sister. i told her when i saw the invitation that i had a cute idea in my mind - i'm glad it came out as cute as i wanted!

the invitation:


the cake:

custom to match invitations

when amanda called me about making her twin's first birthday cakes, she told me about the invitation. when i got it in the mail, i saw that it was the exact invitation that i used for mary peyton's party this year!

amanda sent me this e-mail:
"Suzanne,
So sorry that I am just now writing you. The cakes were delicious! Everyone thought they were beautiful and they looked just like the invitations.
Thank you so much for making our 1st birthday so special. We took tons of pictures so Kyle and Ella will remember.

beach ball!

the cake/cupcakes below were done for a pool party for nash's 1st birthday. his plates were a beach ball, so that's what his mom and i decided to do on the top of his dig-in cake. then we just did a bunch of cupcakes for everybody else!

here's what she wrote me in an e-mail:
"Suzanne~Hey! The party was great and everyone loved the cake and cupcakes. They looked so cute!!! Nash was so mad when we took his cake away from him. He was so funny!!! I thought you might enjoy these pictures. Thanks again for all or your help. I will be calling again for Lawson's 3rd birthday!!!Thank you~Jessica"

i love it when people let me know how everything went!!!
