Carter's 8th Birthday

I had a ton of fun making little fondant minions for both Carter's friend party cupcakes, as well as his family party cake.  We celebrated with his friends by taking them to see the new movie - Despicable Me2, and had a family party with a showing of the original Despicable Me movie.

It has been such a busy summer and I have been meaning to post, but just never seemed to get around to it.  Now that the kiddos are back in school I have no more valid excuses.

I had a couple of orders in May.  One was for a Cinderella Themed cake for a 6 year old's Birthday party......

Cinderella's Dress was a Cupcake covered in Fondant, all the other decorations were made of Fondant as well. 

The other was a Baby Shower cake with the Theme 'Cute as a Button'

Then began my work on reproducing a non-traditional cake for my brother's upcoming wedding. They provided me a picture of the exact cake they wanted, and as long as I could make the giant rose I knew it would be a success.  I got approval on the fondant colours and then over the next month I made a few versions of the rose for them to pick from.  The cake turned out beautifully.
