Travelling Bride


Travel was the theme for this bridal shower cake, with two suitcases stacked on top of one another. The bride-to-be met her future husband on a trip to Australia, and the two have travelled to some other exciting locations together as well. Reagan, her sister-in-law, had her own bridal shower cake done by me last summer, and apparently it was a big hit! I've been super excited to do this one for some time now, as I knew it would be a challenge, as well as being something far from the ordinary. Can't wait to hear how it went over, Reagan-please let me know!!

Hockey Girl


Madison is a young lady with a passion for hockey. Apparently, she "lives, eats and breathes hockey" according to her mom, Kelly. So, for her 9th birthday, Kelly asked me to make her a hockey rink cake, complete with hockey player, stick, nets and puck. Okay, the nets are a little on the small side (as in mini-stick size!), but this was definitely my first attempt at a hockey rink! I hope it helped to make Maddie's birthday special. It was a lot of fun to make!

My New Favourite Cookie


All that needs to be said is "AWWWW!!!"

topsy turvy



I told you I'd be using that lime and pink scheme again, didn't I? Well, here it is again, on a topsy turvy cake for a 30th birthday. If you aren't sure what a topsy turvy cake is, it's one which looks like it's about to take a nosedive onto the table, but somehow manages to stay upright! It's a tricky little bugger too, but a lot of fun to manipulate the angles to give it that very top-heavy look.

On another note, this week (March Break) happens to be one of my busiest weeks so far, thanks to all of you who have been kind enough to ask me to whip something up for you! I appreciate all of your business, and it's been so much fun to really spread my wings creatively. I look forward to all of my future jobs and working with people who have such amazing ideas that get to be cake-ified!
