Baby Shower for Itzel

Carrot cake, all three layers, filled with Pineapple cream.  Two layers are covered in chocolate fondant and the center layer in regular fondant.  This cake kept me up at night.  I had to flip the bottom layer with the 8" diameter on the bottom and the 10" at the top.  I didn't know if the carrot cake would withstand the pressure.  Happily there were no problems. 

Valentine's Day for Blanca

Blanca has ordered several cakes over the years, always Vanilla with Bavarian Cream.  I took particular pleasure in doing this cake for here.  I loved the design and was very happy with the outcome.   Our neighbor, Eduardo, was kind enough to make the base for me.  Thank you!

The Book Worm for Samuel

I've always wanted to make this cake.  Thought it was so darn cute.  I had the chance when our neighbor requested a quick cake for his son's birthday.  Since I do his cakes in exchange for carpentry I got to choose the design. 

The cake is vanilla filled with banana cream and bavarian cream.
