Batter Baking

Something about the chaos of a monster truck cake gives me so much joy 😊 The look on the little boy's face was even better, though! This is the reason I love making cakes 🥰 I even had a dozen cupcakes leftover, so I did a little extra decorating as a gift. It's the little things...

This dream of a cake consists of scratch chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with chocolate buttercream, cake balls, reese's cups, oreos, and a few chocolate bars for a little pizazz! Plus maybe 1 or 2 stray tires 😂
**no trucks/cars were harmed in the making of this masterpiece 😜

Blue, butterflies, and pearls... honestly this cake was so gorgeous, I almost didn't want to give it away (but I did). Of course I had to take a picture in the refrigerator... it would have just been too out of this world otherwise 😜😂

Mmmm!! Red velvet and cream cheese... and no, you aren't mistaken. Those really are red velvet and cream cheese cookies and cake pops on a red velvet and cream cheese cake. You can't really go wrong, right? My 13-year-old niece would agree 😍

Chocolate on chocolate on chocolate! My sister-in-law said she wanted a chocolate cake. So, scratch chocolate, chocolate buttercream, and different types of chocolate candy were of course the go to!

"This is love!" My friend's adorable daughter wanted a princess cake and wanted it to be pink. I think we can safely say that I delivered 🥰🥰 I think adding drip to cake easily takes it to the next level (but it could also be the butterflies.. who knows!)

Such a unique first birthday cake! Very much an Edgar Allen Poe vibe for the bottom tier and a cute top tier 👻 spooky ookie!

My niece's cake... it turned out so beautiful! It's still one of my favorites to this day. Ombre, mermaids, and sails make a mer-tastic cake!

Another nephew's first cake! This is when I learned that 4 layers is key to a beautifully well-crafted bottom tier cake. Lots of texture with different icing colors and gold leaf. Everyone went WILD for this cake!

A wedding cake design I got to create for my step dad's wedding. White cake with a bare icing finish and chocolate drip. The berries were a beautiful touch!

2-tier cowboy cake! Lots of opportunity for learning came from this one. Reds are hard, but a very rustic feel was achieved. Also, fondant stars and ropes were a wonderful addition. And yes, he still has the boots 😍

Nothing says spooky like Coraline. I did my first ever galaxy design and fondant tree for this cake. The fondant didn't quite cooperate, but the design definitely came through. The flavor was scratch vanilla with the signature white chocolate buttercream!
