Farewell Cake

 The Simple version :)

Sunday, October 30th, 2011 we as a church are sending Andrew Hamilton off to Lesotho for 2+ years. Mrs. Hamilton (his mom) makes the cakes for our church, but she is really busy this weekend, so I was asked to do it! I couldn't pass up on making a cake. This is nothing fancy or hard, but was a ton of fun making it! No color stains on the hands this time and no gloves either, you just learn as you go!!!

P.S. all the different countries represented on the cake are places that Andrew's been to or will be visiting.

Jenelle's 25th Birthday "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord"

 After I saw this, I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to add the next layer... ending up doing it, but I liked the simplicity look of this!

 I'm not the most creative when it comes to photography, but I thought this would might be a major key to...

 Making sure I have the copyright in there!

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing! Twas a fun cake to make, decorate, and with the combined efforts of friends and family this cake was made very unique! Thanks to all who put a word in edge wise;)

#1 Tip - DON'T use deli gloves when kneading color into fondant! They rip REAL easy and you WON'T notice it till it's too late!

Smellin' Fishy

It seems every year James asks me to make him a fish cake! So every year I look for "new" ideas! This is this years rendition!  Happy 12th Birthday James (Sept 27, 2011)! God bless you as you go out and be a fisher of men!

Chaim & Deanna Malespin's Wedding Cake #2

Praise the Lord! We got home this afternoon at about 2pm. I quickly got the cake into the oven and at 6pm was ready to start decorating! Process was a bit slow and I kept getting called for practicing (we're playing for the wedding too!), however it went better than expected... I'm just really praying protection for it on the 1hr. van ride down tomorrow!
This 10+ in. cake is chocolate & vanilla (layered every other one!) filled with raspberry filling and Vienna Filling and iced with a butter-cream icing!  

Micah's 8th Birthday

Micah and I worked at making this 3D funky car together! It was fun teaching Micah the different techniques that I have been able to learn, and just be together! He's growing up fast!

A quick birthday cake that I made for Rachel Heikoop! We had a special day together; all inclusive with balloons, streamers, a steak dinner, fireworks, cake, canoeing, and more! What a sweet gal... Lord bless her!
