MJ turns ONE

For my son's first birthday I choose a Sock Monkey theme. I designed his smash cake to match the invitation we sent out, a sock monkey on the top and argyle on the side in red, blue and brown.

 

 

Love this color scheme!

 

 

Not so sure about frosting....or cake.

Iowa Smash Cake

Smash cakes are my favorite, especially for little one years you know!

Mr. Wes turned the big One a few weeks ago with an Iowa Hawkeye themes birthday. 

 This time instead of just using Hawkeye colors only, I wanted to included the tiger hawk. Luckily I have a cookie cutter that was the perfect size for this cake that I was able to use as a template.

Happy Birthday Wes! Go Hawks!

Baseball Cake

**I have some catching up to do. I am very behind on keeping this blog up to date and hope to get back on it!

I love making first birthday cakes. Sports themed cakes have been very popular for little boys birthdays since I've been making cakes.

I made this baseball glove out of a double layer 9-inch round cake. The baseball on top of the large cake was made from a small ramekin.

With a round baseball smash cake.

Ladybug Birthday

Ladybug birthday themes seem to be popular this year. It's a perfect party theme for a little girl, especially a 1st birthday!

Safari Birthday

A few weeks ago I made Drake a smash cake for his One Year pictures, here. This past weekend was his 1st birthday party in which he had a Safari Themed party. This being my first jungle/safari theme I had no idea what to do or where to begin. Luckily Drake's mother included this link to all the party supplies she was going to use which gave me my inspiration. I wanted to make all the safari animals....

The beginning of my animals

Starting to come together

They actually look like animals!

And it all comes together :) 

A 2 layer 10-inch marble cake with chocolate ganache filling and vanilla buttercream

I love how it turned out! The safari animals turned out better than I pictured.

We have lions, tigers, zebras, giraffes, elephants, and monkeys!

The smash cake

Birthday cupcakes for all of little Drake's friends...I'd say my handwriting is starting to improve (at least on the cupcakes!)

Happy 1st Birthday Drake!

Hope you had a wonderful party and enjoyed your cake.

Smash Cake

I have a Safari Cake coming up in two weeks for a first birthday that I'm very excited to make. In preparation of little Drake's first birthday, he's getting his one year pictures taken and his parents asked if I could also make a smash cake for his pictures.

This is my first time having one of my cakes getting professionally photographed!!  How exciting.....and a little nerve-racking. His color scheme for the pictures is navy blue, lime green and gray.   

Double IOWA Birthday

For a joint first birthday and 50th birthday party Jackie and Matt wanted to have a Iowa Hawkeye theme for their son Charlie and Matt's father.  

 For the main cake they picked a Iowa Hawkeye helmet and football.

To go along with the theme I matched Charlie's Smash Cake with Hawkeye colors.

I think this is my favorite smash cake so far!!

For the 50th birthday cupcakes they requested chocolate cupcakes with half peanut butter frosting and half chocolate cream cheese.

Topped with marshmallow fondant black and gold circles of "Happy", "50" and the tigerhawk.
