Tinkerbell Cake

Tinkerbell Birthday Cake

Dave was a HUGE fan of this cake! I think he was the most excited about it once he saw how it turned out, which really shouldn't surprise me with his love for all things Disney! :)


I used the Barbie cake pan from Wilton and used an actual Tinkerbell Barbie doll (found at Target) instread of the half dolls included with the pan or that you can buy at the craft store for these kinds of cakes. That way the birthday girl was able to keep her full length Tink as a birthday gift from the cake lady!

Princess Aurora

I love trying new things and being tested with my baking skills, especially since I'm still very new at this and have so much to still learn when it comes to cake decorating.

Last week I got a call for a Princess birthday cake in which my customer wanted to order as a sheet cake. The birthday girl really wanted Princess Aurora from Sleeping Beauty but they were having trouble finding anyone who could do a Disney princess so they would settle for any princess. I of course did not want to disappoint a little birthday girl so I looked for ideas on-line and found a new technique to try out called Frozen Buttercream Transfer.

I found this great YouTube video found here that gave a really good tutorial. Basically all you need is a printed out image such as a coloring page at the size you need, wax paper, a cookie sheet, tape, and prepared buttercream in all the colors you need. First outline the image then start filling in practically like a paint by number. I froze mine for 24 hours before transferring onto my prepared sheet cake, peel off the wax paper and the pipe a boarder about the image since it's a bit thick.

And this is what I got!

Birthday girl Brynn was so surprised she actually got Princess Aurora on her cake!!

Football & Princess

Two things that usually don't go together unless your birthday falls on the Super Bowl! I got the chance to make cupcakes for a joint 3rd birthday/super bowl party! Pink Princesses and Football themes cupcakes.

Vanilla cupcakes made with a to die for strawberry buttercream (made with real strawberries!) and topped with pink marshmallow fondant tiara's.

Chocolate cupcakes with a creamy peanut butter frosting, topped with marshmallow fondant footballs and Super Bowl team logos.

Happy Birthday Princess Kennedy!
