Cake Notes
Tea Time
I’ve seen cupcakes in teacups before, and think it looks so very dainty!. I found an inexpensive cup and saucer at Ross, and placed a vanilla cupcake inside. Then I started to experiment with different fruit garnishes…
Next I tried some fresh hydrangeas… and then some fake hydrangeas
Thumbelina’s Wedding Cake
I love mini tiered cakes. Perhaps the thought of eating an ENTIRE cake myself is what makes them so appealing…
This little vanilla-bean cake is dipped in chocolate ganache, and wrapped in chocolate fondant…
This one is a chocolate cake with vanilla meringue frosting and fresh blueberries.
These would also be perfect for a shower or even a formal occasion.
Chocolate MINI CUPCAKES with a smear of chocolate fudge frosting. The roses topping the cupcakes are made with royal-icing. Some day my fondant leaves are going to look as good as these silk ones!
Mini chocolate cupcakes with buttercream roses and fondant leaves. A friend of mine made the tags which read “Enjoy- but don’t eat the dirt!”
Bloomin’ Berries
I made this cake while vacationing at my sister’s in L.A. Her friend asked me if I’d do one for a casual get-together—and even suggested a fun store called Surfas where I could get the supplies. Nice. Now all I needed was a great idea for a cake. My sis suggested I try the delicious combination of lemon cake with fresh strawberries:
Good idea!
Vanilla cupcakes with cream-cheese frosting and fondant and sugar flowers.
My first wedding cake. The cakes were cinnamon with cream-cheese frosting and almond-poppyseed with vanilla frosting.
Chocolate cake layered with Nutella mousse filling, wrapped in chocolate-filled cookie cigars
