True Love and Ruffles

This has been a CrAzY month!!! From vacationing myself to having visitors staying with us and making my first wedding cake for a very special couple, I'm surprised I've survived it all in one piece!! It was my pleasure to make this cake for the newlyweds who had a beautiful wedding. The cake consisted of three different flavors: red velvet with cream cheese, chocolate syrup cake with Oreo cream cheese and white chocolate pound cake with raspberry Chambord buttercream filling. Everything went so smoothly with the whole process and the delivery that I swear I had help from above. There is just no margin of error for wedding cakes!!! Here's to a lifetime of love and happiness,  ERB+RB!  xoxo

Pinson~

This cake was made especially for our little Grandmother's Birthday luncheon this past Saturday. When she was younger, her grandfather nicknamed her "Pinson" which is a little finch. She's still itty bitty and as gracious as ever. The cake was Lemon Pponge soaked in Limoncello with Raspberry Chambord Buttercream with fresh raspberries. Bonne Fete Grandmere Pinson!

50 Years of Bliss~

This cake was delivered this past Saturday to a couple I admire so much. Fifty years together is so rare nowadays that it is truly spectacular to see a couple so much in love after this long. I was honored to make the cake for this celebration!

Showers of Love~

 This cake was an aunt's gift to her niece for her wedding shower and the one below for her mother, whose birthday was the same day! The exquisite design of the shower cake is from PinkCakeBox.com and the teacup birthday cake was designed to match the elegance of the larger cake. Both cakes were Almond Amaretto flavor with Raspberry Chambord Buttercream filling. Congratulations to the bride and happy birthday to the momma!

Lucky 30


This cake was a blast to create! The birthday girl has a dream of traveling to Ireland and as a tribute to her "Lucky 30" year we created a chocolate syrup cake with chocolate cherry filling. We found this design that was more of a Valentine's day theme on Cake Central and tweaked it to fit this Irish theme. The headboard was made of cereal treats and the cobblestone rocks were pieces of fondant painted with different shades of gray and black. Unfortunately I am not so talented with sculpting and so I enlisted my oh-so-talented sister in law to help shape this little guy!

Arggghh Matey!

My oldest nephew turned 6 this past weekend and is obsessed with pirates. The cake was chocolate fudge (his favorite), the sand was made with almond meal and brown sugar, and the pirate ship was made of cereal treats. The treasure map had all his favorite places on it as well!
Happy birthday little Captain!xoxo

Kalei in Wonderland!!

We delivered Kalei's cake this Saturday for her 5th birthday! As the door was answered she yelled out, "Mom, my teapot is here!!" which made my husband and I laugh! From the carved teapot to the mini mushrooms...this cake was so much fun to create. Hopefully I can post better pictures than this later as I forgot to take pictures before we left the house!! Hope you had a wonderful birthday Kalei!!

Pineapple Pete

Pineapple Pete has a special place in the groom's heart! This little guy was fun to create! Of course the cake had to be pineapple with a filling of fresh pineapple that was simmered with brown sugar and butter to resemble the wonderful taste of pineapple upside down cake! I wish all the best to Mike and Tricia! Mahalo!
