Under The Sea Baby Shower

My apologies for taking so long to post updates...I was having some major issues uploading and I didn't want to start all over again.

This cake was so much fun to make...everything on it is edible.  The fish, turtles, crabs, etc...are all made from royal icing.  The sand dollars and shells are white/milk chocolate...The sand is brown sugar.

I had such a hard time delivering this cake...I wanted to keep it, but I am so glad that the mother-to-be enjoyed it.

Sporty Baby Shower

Welcoming Baby Kale

Red Velvet...the mommy-to-be's request

I was so honored when I was asked to make this cake.  This is for my little brother's (RIP) best friend and his fiance.

This was my first sports themed cake...and I absolutely loved the way it turned out.  Everything is edible...including the balls...

Pink/Brown Baby Shower

My first time using chocolate molds...totally addicted...LOL

I thought these turned out too cute...
Hope the mommy-to-be enjoyed these (Strawberry cupcakes w/Cream Cheese Frosting
&
Yellow Butter cupcakes filled w/pineapple and Vanilla Buttercream)

Graduation/Going Away Cake

This cake was bittersweet.  So proud of Stephen for graduating from High School after everything he has gone through the past couple of years...and even prouder that he has decided to join the Navy...but it's sad to see him go...we are all so proud of him, but we will all miss him terribly.

This has to be one of my favorites...I was a little worried about the Sailor
hat, but I LOVE the way it came out.
Best of all...there were no leftovers...


Cardinals Baseball Cake

This was my first attempt at using just buttercream...it was cute, but
I have a lot more practicing to do.  I have to be honest...covering a cake
in fondant is so much easier...LOL

LVLL Rookie Dodgers Team Party

My son had his Team Party this past weekend...so I decided I would make the cake and cupcakes for it.

For the coaches and the parents I decided I would make them a special Dodgers cake.


And for the players...I wanted them to feel extra special...so instead of just getting a blue and white cupcake
I had each player's picture printed on edible paper and attached it to gumpaste...and placed each player
in front of their own cupcake.
The looks on their faces were priceless...they couldn't believe it.  At first they were afraid to touch the pictures...the next thing I know they are all grabbing for their pictures.  They were so excited...well worth the work.



Cupcake Camp SGV 2011

Keisha's Sweets attended its first Cupcake Camp

and I was a little overwhelmed at first, but it turned out to be one of the most amazing

experiences.

I want to thank all of my friends and family that came to support me at Cupcake Camp...you are

truly an incredible group of people...LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Keisha's Sweets was on the right side of the table and Sweet Art
Cupcakes was on the left.
For a donation of 150-299 cupcakes you get 1/2 a table.


My pretty little display...let me tell you...after looking at some of the
other bakeries...I need to up my game at the next event...LOL

I love how the cupcake colors match my business cards...
(did that on purpose)

Lil ol' me...LOL

I don't think I would have survived the event if it weren't
for my biggest helper...thank you Brandie

My girlfriend Katie couldn't decide which cupcake she wanted...so
she decided to take home a nice assortment...LOL
