When dinosaurs ruled the Earth!

I had some family in town from St. Louis, and while they were here my little cousin celebrated his 4th birthday.  Clark is totally in dinosaurs, so the theme of his birthday cake was obvious :)  I borrowed some of his dino toys to place on the cake, and it turned out awesome!  To watch his reaction, as well as his little brother's, was priceless! 


 Instagram fun :)


I had some cake and frosting left over, so i decided to make some cake balls!  
Chocolate cake & peanut butter frosting dipped in milk or dark chocolate with peanut butter drizzle....yummmm! 


Toy Story birthday cake!

 I've always loved Toy Story, and have kept enjoying it thanks to my 3 year old niece.  So when I got the request for a Toy Story birthday cake, I couldn't wait to make it!!...until I found out I only had 3 days until delivery.  I had just started a new job in a bakery (yayy!!) that week, and wasn't getting home until 7 or 8 o'clock at night, so I had limited hours in the day to work on it.  I decided to ask my customer if they wouldn't mind putting Toy Story action figures on the cake instead of me trying to create them.  They agreed, and they looked great on the cake!  I have to say, this is one of my favorite cakes :)
