Draped Fondant, Quilted pattern, and a Designed Cross

Behold Children are a heritage from the Lord
....and the fruit of the womb is His reward

Had a lot of fun with this cake
with the quilted look, the draped fondant, and the pressed cross...
I've been struggling to blog about the different cakes right away, 
so when I finally find time to do it I almost forget
what I was going to write!

This cake was totally worth every second spent on it - to see the look on the little girls face when she came to pick it up! This is what I'm reminded of as I work on the cakes, that no matter how late it gets, how long I've been working on it already, just one more detail will totally make the cake!

Mocha Season

A Mocha Almond Delight!
A huge slab cake with a decadent taste! 
 A mocha book cake - very similar to the previous one except...
The fondant roses - each on of the petals was rolled out by hand and placed strategically! 

I`ve been trying different mocha icing recipes and I have definitely found `the one` - Mrs. Heikoop has always made this one - not sure why I didn`t try it before! Very light, not too sweet, and the coffee flavor is bursting with a hint of chocolate - a perfect mocha blend!

Purple Ombre Rose Swirl


So excited to do this cake - was a new technique, but that's one thing I love trying - new techniques!
Bottom tier: a peanut butter lovers dream come true - chocolate cake filled with a smooth Reese Peanut Butter Cup! Top tier: Vanilla cake with a sweet strawberry filling
and yes, covered a purple ombre rose swirl buttercream (mouthfull:))

The little blossoms were made out of fondant and added a fun look to it - which totally reflected the personality of the dear lady receiving it! Really matched her personality! Something I really enjoy about cake decorating - finding out what my customers like yes, but their personality more - that's when you can really design a cake that is PERSONAL!
