Butterfly Cake

OCCASION: Birthday
FLAVOR: Strawberry

This cake was made for a friend at school, Ceci. The smaller butterflies were made out of candy that I melted and molded to the butterfly wing shape. The cake itself was entirely icing. It was refreshing to try a non-fondant cake for once!

Fightin' Blue Hens Cake

OCCASION: Graduation

FLAVOR: Strawberry

I made this cake for another graduate from my school, my friend Nicole. She'll be attending University of Delaware in the fall, so this cake is the fighting hen, Delaware's mascot!

Future Terp Cake

OCCASION: Graduation
FLAVOR: White Cake with Green Sprinkles

I made this cake for my best friend Alan, who recently graduated from high school. Our school colors are green, black, and white, and he will be attending the University of Maryland next year. I decided that rather than making a traditional graduation-themed cake, I would personalize it by showing his transition from a Raider to a Terrapin.

Hangman Cupcakes

OCCASION: Random
FLAVOR: Pink Lemonade

I made this cake for some of my friends after an inside joke we had about hangman. I made one of each letter so that everyone in our class could (try) to play a real game with it. This would have worked, except people kept eating the letters! Still, I like the idea of having interactive cupcakes.

Love Cake

OCCASION: Religious Education Class
FLAVOR: Funfetti

I made this cake for the last meeting of my religious education class. I came up with the expression after one of our meetings, and I thought it seemed encouraging. Although this isn't my usual style, I still wanted to feature it on the site.

Giraffe Cake

OCCASION: Birthday
FLAVOR: Chocolate Chip

Sorry it's taken so long! I've been having computer troubles, but here's the latest cake! Due to popular request, I have replaced my usual foil with plain white posterboard. Also, I will provide more description for each cake in my posts. This cake was for my brother's 24th birthday. It's a big inside joke in our family that he wants to have a baby giraffe, so it seemed entirely appropriate. I used yellow cake with mini chocolate chips so it had a giraffe effect inside and out.

Thank you to everyone who has given me support, advice, and feedback in the last few weeks! It really means so much to me!
