Halloween is Coming!

Halloween is coming! It's one of my favorite holidays and so I thought I'd get some practice on making spooky cookies....

Cat, Pumpkin, Ghost, Witch, Bat and Candy Corn

All together it looks so cute!

Happy Anniversary Patrick and Laura!

Today is my friends' Patrick and Laura's 4th anniversary. Laura asked me to make something for Patrick to deliver to him at work. She couldn't decide what she wanted so I got a little creative...

Sweet September

This is a wedding cake that I got the privilege of assisting my mother in decorating. It was finished with satin ribbon and pearl dragees - all of which were individually placed on the cake by hand. The cake was very simple and elegant and was finished with fresh flowers on top. However, the florist arrived after we had completed the set up so I do not have a finished photo.

This is the accompanying groom's cake. It was chocolate with chocolate icing. The groom is an avid skier so the motif was mountains and on top, a skiing couple.

Roller skate!

A bridal shower cake. Hard to tell in the photo, but the ribbon around the bottom of each tier is navy blue and the scroll work is spring green.

A first anniversary cake. Pineapple cake with cream cheese frosting. Cream cheese is a very temperamental icing and can be a challenge for decorating, especially in the hot, humid Texas weather.

Aloha! Luau cupcakes with hibiscus picks in each.
