Easter Bunny


This Bunny is Chocolate cake with white Butter Cream icing. He's all edible, except the ears which are construction paper white and pink. I made this for the children of First Christian Church, Butler, MO. We ate it after the Easter Egg Hunt on Palm Sunday, April 13, 2014. It was a hit. The kids loved it, and so did the adults! 
It took one cake mix -- Devil's Food Chocolate. The body is 6" round; The head is a 10 oz. custard cup; the feet are cupcakes and the arms are a mini cupcake cut in half.

60th Wedding Anniversary


I had the honor of making the 60th Wedding Anniversary cake for Uncle R.C. and Aunt Marlene. The celebration was November 2, at the Senior Center in Mt. Vernon, Missouri.
The cake is 12", 8" and 5". The layers are half yellow and half chocolate. The filling between layers is Peach. I got compliments on both looks and flavor!

These cupcakes were gluten free yellow cake, also with peach filling. (For those with wheat allergies.)
