Welcome Little Monster


Our cousin was pregnant with her first child, her baby shower theme was "welcome little monster". The colors of the shower were brown and orange. This a 2 tier 8'' and 10'' circle cake. It is made from a yellow cake then filled with b. cream, and covered in buttercream frosting. The orange and brown swirls along the edges are melted bakers chocolate. The Monster is formed from fondant and then covered with buttercream frosting.


We were so excited to see everyone's facial expressions. We were glad to know that Autumn and Evelio truely enjoyed their cake and are now a happy mommy and daddy. Their little baby girl is beautiful and healthy!

Crystal and Nixon's Birthday Cake




Our sister in law and her son (our nephew) both celebrated their birthday's together. Crystal didn't want us to have to make two seperate cakes and told us to make one just for Nixon. So we added her name on to final cake.

Nixon is a hundred percent little boy so we thought a dirt bike cake would fit him very well. It was hard to find small enough dirtbikes to fit on the sheet cake but we did. The cake was a white cake filled with b. cream, then covered in buttercream frosting. It turned out great and Nixon loved getting more toys off the topof his cake.

Mother in law Birthday Cake


Michelle's mother in law loves loves loves to go shopping. Her Thursday's and Saturday's are dedicated specifically for shopping. So we formed out a bag from Rice Krispy treats then covered it in pink fondant. We add sparkles to the fondant and pearls to make them have a little shimmer. The cake was a 10'' square made from cherry chip cake, with b. cream filling.

Andrea's birthday cake


My sister-in-law Andrea loves all things japenese. So we figured all things asain would work too. We did the cherry blossoms up the sides and top of the cake. With a sushi board, two rolls of sushi, pink chopsticks and ofcourse the Happy Birthday fortune cookie. It was a strawberry cake with b. cream filling. This cake looked alot better then I expected it to, and tasted great.

Grandpa's birthday cake




Our Grandpa is an avid fisherman. He loves anything to do with fishing. So we decided to make a fish cake since we had just learned how to use rice krispy to mold shapes. The fish is definitely molded out of rice kripsy then covered in fondant. Megan sculpted each scale and then painted it by hand. The cake was a success and the whole family enjoyed it.

Brandon's Birthday Cake


Michelle's husband was at work while we hurried and threw this together. He loves to golf and we knew that he and his co-workers would get a kick out of having a golf course cake. It definitely was a hit when Michelle went and droppede it off.

Chantel's barbie cake


Megan wanted to make her friend from work a simple but cute cake. So she decided on using the barbie mold and making her a "safari gown" barbie. The picture truely doesn't do the cake justice. Megan used edible glitter and put it all over the gown which truely made this a girly girls cake!

Ali's wedding cake


This was our second attempt at a wedding cake. Ali wanted a sqaure two tier cake. The colors we were given were purple and orange with a white base of buttercream frosting. The filling was rasberry cream cheese with a simple white cake. We wrapped each layer in a purple ribbon which were held in place by pearls. The flowers were a simple but beautiful addition we did. Megan and I were proud to call this our cake.

Our FIRST WEDDING cake




It was our cousin Jeni's wedding and we drove to Utah to support her in this momentous occasion. She was so trusting to let us make her wedding cake. We were so nervous to see how it was all going to turn out in the end. We were ambitious and made our own fondant. The bottom 3 layers are fake while the top is the real one they cut into. Megan and I were very pleased when the finished product was put on its stand and we added all the flowers. Not to bad for our first time.

Our FIRST cake


It was a cake for Trentin, Michelle's son. He had a fascination for dinosaurs and had the largest grin ever when he saw the "real" dinosaurs on his cake. The cake didn't last long because he stuck his hand in right away.
