Pink and black, Perennial Barbie, My Little Pony, Brush Embroidery, Woody and Dino Cakes

Turned 30 yesterday (the 11th).

THIRTY.

While I sulk about about my youth passed, here's a look at what we've been up to...


Pink and black cake:

Made this for a girly girl, love how simple and elegant it turned out!

Adrianna's perennial Barbie cake:

This was made for one of Rylee's close friends, Adrianna. We LOVED making this cake! We hardly ever do cakes like these and it was a ton of fun. We used the airbrush and I made buttercream roses! Not a lot of people asking for buttercream roses these days so we enjoyed it :)

My Little Pony:

Rodney totally rocked the pony on this cake! Love the colors and how bright they turned out!

Brush Embroidery Cake:

This cake had me a little nervous! I hadn't piped like this or done brush embroidery in a VERY LONG TIME. I sat down and decided to just start and see where it led me...I have to say, this is probably one of my favorite cakes that we've done this year so far. It's a lot different than most cakes we do, pretty traditional (again with the buttercream roses) but I absolutely love it. I went back over the piping with white disco glitter to make it stand out. Yay!

Woody Cake:

Okay so my super sweet friend Cristina had this vision for her son's 3rd birthday cake. She wanted the cake to look like Woody. Her thought was that she'd have her son peek his head above the top tier (all decked out in his cowboy hat) and she'd snap a super cute photo (can't wait to see this picture!). After lots of discussion and deliberation, we came up with this design. I could not be happier with it. Rodney and I both worked on this cake together (at the same time - typically we work in stages at different times) and I'm just so proud of how well we work together. We've become a well oiled machine!

Dino Cake:

Love this cake design! We love making cakes for kids so much! This was another that we hadn't done before and I'm so happy with how it turned out. I snapped this photo before I cleaned up the powdered sugar (ignore that please).

Did I mention I turned 30 this week? I think I'm already experiencing some memory loss.

Bobble head cake, Liam's train cake, Law and order Cupcakes

Seriously there are at least 4 or 5 other things we've done but I can't find them! We're doing good to actually take a picture of the work we're producing these days!

Here's a little (because I can't find the rest) of what we've been up to!

Bobble head cake:

Very proud of this one! It was featured on USA Today! Here's the link!

Kinda cool!

Liam's Train cake:

This cake was for a little boy that we made a cake for last year, for his 1st birthday! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE making birthday cakes for kids each year and creating different things for them! It's so special and sweet!

And lastly, some cupcakes we made for a Law and Order superfan!

Mickey and Minnie themed cakes and party, Handy Manny cake, pink and orange party, stacked book cakes, dance party cakes, 30th birthday cake

I am officially the worst blogger ever! The old "I've got twins!" defense probably isn't holding too much water any more but shoot! I've got twins!

In all honesty, we had Christmas, the twins 1st birthday, I styled a party for a friend and then we were at Disney for a week. I caught the worst case of the flu eve when we returned, we've all had stomach viruses and ear infections...what else can we catch at this point? (actually, don't answer that)

Anyway, here are some pictures of a few things we've done including and starting off with Logan and Hadley's first birthday party :)

I went with a vintage Mickey and Minnie theme for my sweet babies!

The birthday boy and girl :)

Handy Manny cake:

Sofia's party:

Stacked book cake:

Dance Party Cakes/Cupcakes

30th birthday cake:

Yay! I finally got a post up! Hopefully I'll be better about it from here on out!

Jungle cake, Star Wars, Max's first birthday, Train 1st birthday & baby cookie monster cakes!

Busy busy busy! Here's what I totally did not get around to posting before the holidays! I'm sure an awesome blogger, huh?

Christening cake, Star Wars, Rylee's 5th birthday, Company logo, Lola's Gabba cake

I'm such a terrible blogger! It's been a while since I've updated but between Rylee's birthday and all of the other festivities that are happening now, it's hard to find a moment!

Here's what we've been up to!

Dylan's Star Wars Cake:

Christening Cake:

Rylee's  5th birthday cake! ( I promise to dedicate a post to this along with the other things I did for the party at a later date - I did a candy bar and some awesome favors!)

 

Soccour Company Logo Cake:

Harrison's 1st Birthday cake:

Yo Gabba Gabba Birthday!

Thanks for stopping by! More detailed post coming up soon!

The busiest week ever.

Wow! Can't believe we made it through this week! Just when I think that it can't get any crazier, it does!

Here's what went down around here ON TOP of all of our Halloween activities...

Our biggest project this week was a wedding and groom's cake for a friend. Monica and Nick are such a cute and fun couple and I was REALLY excited to take on this project. Through our meetings we somehow agreed that I would also do the flower for their big day! It was a big project but I had a lot of fun!

The wedding cake:

A quick snap I took at the GORGEOUS location. (check it out www.belltowerfortworth.com)

Doesn't it look great against the stain glass? That whole room was gorgeous! 

The groom's cake

I think this cake really personifies who Monica and Nick are as a couple! I love how unique and different it is for a groom's cake! 

I actually ended up doing the flowers for this wedding, too! How crazy am I? If you ask Rodney, the answer would be "INSANE." I had some awesome help (thanks Andrea and Ana!) and I'm pretty happy with the results. I didn't photograph any thing except the bridal bouquet! 

You can't see it but there is bear grass looped around the whole thing as well. Wish I had taken some better pictures! Hopefully the photographer got some shots of the florals.

Sweet Parker

This was for our friend, Arden. Arden's an AMAZING photographer! Seriously, she's one of the best and you should book with her! (www.ardenprucha.com) Her precious daughter recently turned a year old and she went with a Sweet Pea theme (play on words - get it? Pea = Parker).

The smash cake :)

Bridal shower

A themed Halloween Party!

What a crazy busy week! We made it through and I'm so proud of us! Time to start working on a certain little girl's 5th birthday...it's just 3 weeks away! I can't believe it...
