campfire

I made this cake for my husband and son when I thought they were missing their father-son camp-out. I thought I'd give them the next best thing to a real camp fire- a cake that looks like one.
 

The cake is a chocolate roll with whipped cream filling covered in ganache. The flames are hard candy.

tool box

I made this for my son's second birthday. When my brother arrived at the party and began looking for a place to put his coat, he, for some reason, went as far as my kitchen pantry and set it on top of this cake thinking it was actually a toolbox.
 This cake was inspired by Reese cups -peanut butter cake and filling, with a milk chocolate ganache. The actual box and tools are rice crispies covered in fondant.

Women at the Well

I made this fabulously delicious cake for a church activity themed "Women at the Well."

The pitcher is edible too!
