Need help planning your party?!?

My awesome cousin Traci is one talented lady!  She has always had a love for party planning, and now she wants to share her talents with everyone!!  Check out her blog, Party Vision, to see some of her amazing work!!  Whatever kind of party you have in mind, she will help it come to a reality!! 


(Another) Toy Story cake!


I was so excited when a friend from work asked me to make a Toy Story cake for her son's birthday!!  I knew I had to out-do myself from the first one I had done, so this is what I came up with!  Jaxson's favorite character is Buzz Lightyear, so I wanted to make sure Buzz was part of the spotlight.  I have to confess, as big as the cake is, my favorite part is the little cardboard box on the side with Ham sticking out of it :)

Update!

It has been way too long since I've posted!!  Apologies, I was having some trouble uploading pictures for awhile, but I've got it figured out now!  Here is a quick update of some of my latest creations....
 
I 
My new favorite cake!!  A co-worker of my brother gave me the honor of making his wedding cake.  He's had my Red Velvet cake several times, so that was what flavor he requested, along with German Chocolate for the middle tier.  The bride and groom sent me a picture of the bouquet so I could match the color of the ribbon, and they gave me a few extra flowers to place on the cake as well.  Simple, elegant, and very pretty! 


Last year I took a trip to New Orleans during its annual Jazz Festival, and completely fell in love with the city!  This year, I decided to bring a little NOLA tradition home and make my very first King Cake.  It was so delicious!  A new tradition for years to come!  

 
This was a cake I did for a mother celebrating her daughter graduating from Full Sail University with a degree in Film Production.  

 
Elvis cupcakes!!  Banana cake, peanut butter frosting, and bacon!


 Typical holiday spread!  Cake, biscotti, brie puffs, cake shots, and gingerbread sandwich cookies!
