Flower Garden

This is a very chocolate cake made from 1 mix. The pan really could use 2 mixes as the "fence" around the edge didn't come through so well as I would have liked. The plan belonged to my sister. I've had some fun trying out all the special pans she had purchased through the years.

This cakes goes to my neighbor to celebrate her birthday. She's a wonderful neighbor!

Spiderman!

My grandson is turning 7 in October and I get to celebrate his birthday with him on Sunday. I asked him what cake he would like. He told me chocolate cake. I asked him what theme he would like and he chose Spiderman. I sure hope he likes this Spiderman cake! 
The cake was made in the Superhero pan for Superman and/or Batman. I used two mixes to be sure to have a full cake. The icing is Buttercream. Can't wait to hear what he says when he sees it!

Birthday and Graduation


 This cake is a 9 x 13-inch white cake with Strawberry filling in the middle. It was a hit at the after church reception celebrating both birthday and the Education for Ministry Graduation for Mark Covey in Newark, New Jersey. 

I made this cake at my daughter's in Queens. It was fun to use her kitchen and her tools.

Patriotic Cake II


Red, White and Blue cake once again. 10 inch round Red Velvet and Blue Velvet cakes with white Cream Cheese frosting. This time I put fruit on the top for a lovely finish. My son and grandsons loved the cake on July 3. I shared with neighbors for the next few days. 
Cakes are a fun way to share with others!

Bunny Cake for the Boys!

This is the 2nd time I have made a Bunny Cake. This is a Strawberry 6-inch 2-layer "body" with each foot being 1 cupcake. The arms are each 1/2 half of a mini cupcake. The carrots are cut from Orange Slices candy with Buttercream leaves. The eyes are Skittles. The cheeks and foot pads are marshmallows. Only the ears are non-edible. 
My grandsons loved the Bunny shape and the taste of the cake. They had fun pulling the ears off and attacking the carrots with them. We had a wonderful Easter celebration together!

Birthday Mickey!


 This is a strawberry cake made for my grandson's 3rd birthday and my 71st birthday. He was born 2 days after my birthday. We had such fun celebrating together! 

My daughter gave me this pan after our trip to Disney World Christmas 2021. Good times!
