Owen's drum cake, Girly Skull cake, Reunion dessert buffet

Here's what I have been up to this week! Thank goodness for Rodney, the dessert buffet took up the bulk of my time!

Owen's drum cake:

All fondant, strawberry cake. Good thing I have a hubby whose a drummer, this cake would have been too hard to do on my own!



Girly Skull Cake:

This was our girly take on a cake we made almost a year ago! Love the way it turned out! The skull is RKT's covered in chocolate and fondant and the rest of the cake is buttercream!



Lastly, here are a few pictures of the dessert/candy buffet I did for my 10 year high school reunion. (which I also happened to organize...never again!) I'm happy with the way the table turned out!



On the buffet were:

chocolate cheesecake cups
oreo truffles
chocolate chip cookie dough brownies with chocolate ganache
red and blue jelly bellies
twizzlers
vanilla and chocolate cupcakes
lemon and strawberry cake pops
mini pumpkin pies
chocolate dipped pretzel rods







Exhausting week! Glad it's over!

This cake was made for the son of a friend of mine, from high school. Our kiddos even have the same birthday!

The idea was taken from another cake decorator, just changed some colors around a bit. Once it's home (since they are picking it up while we are in route to Vegas) they will add the gold coins and maybe even a little brown sugar sand. The cake is all chocolate with vanilla buttecream. The skull on top is made from rice krispy treats, covered in melted white chocolate and marshmallow fondant.

Hopefully I'll get to see some pictures once it's complete...hint hint!


Wish me luck with my cake decorating adventures in Vegas!
