This was my cake I made for a friend at work for her boyfriend's brother. He owns a tow truck company and it was his birthday. I had a really hard time beating up the little cars to make it look like they really wrecked. I make the road out of black sprinkles, a girl from work gave me the idea and it look so good I thought it looked like a real road.

Thanksgiving cake

This was another cake that I sold. A lady at work bought this one and she was really happy with the way the turkey turned out! (So was I)

Another cake for Greg's work

Greg's work had a Thanksgiving pot luck so I made him another cake to take in. They seem to never get enough practice cakes so I thought I would be nice and send in another one. It was just a quick throw together a quick one for him.

My first sold cake

This was my first cake that I sold! A guy that i worked with bought it for his mom's birthday. He wanted it really simple. So I did a double layer chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. They told me they enjoyed. This was the first of may I plan on making and selling.

another practice cake

I started this cake with nothing in mind. I wanted to play with the lettering kit I just bought, and practice spreading icing on as smooth as I could. So I got the white all spread and then I had to come up with something to write on it. 'Best Friends' was all I could think of. So I did that and then I thought I would try my hand at some simple flowers. I ended up giving it to a friend of mine because we have really been eating more that our share of cakes. :)

Greg's Birthday cake

Well I would not be a good wife it I did not make my own husband a Birthday cake while I am doing all of this. So I decided to make him a cake to taketo work with him. During the week of his birthday there was a lot of extra people around his work, so I had to make him a BIG cake. I made this a double layer 12"X 18". One layer was Chocolate and the other was white. It took 4 batch of homemade frosting to cover this cake. Turns our everyone had a piece and half of the cake still came home with him. OOOppps! I think it must have weighed at least 10 pounds once it was made. We did manage to finish off the cake.

My third one

This cake I was still just playing with different cake pan. I thought I would try some different colors as well. I know that the pink was a little to bright so next time I will just tone that color down a little.

My second cake

This is my second cake I made. This one turned out better than the house I learned on the Wilton site that I needed to do the outlining before I did the coloring. It was still around Halloween time so I was still playing around with the color scheme.

My cakes so far

This was me very first cake I made. Karen gave me most of her shaped cake pans and it was October so I decided this would be a appropriate one to start with. This one I did before I found the Wilton cake site to give me pointer for doing the shaped pans.

This is my first try at a blog and I am hoping it is not to boring to read. I am going to tell you about how I got started with my cakes. My husband, Greg, has a Aunt that has been doing this on the side for a while and she has decided to "retire" from making cakes. She has been so great on give me the opportunity to take over. She has been so great and supportive, she has now order cakes from me herself. I was so shocked the first one she ordered. I want to make cakes for any and every event and I am really trying to get my name out there. So if you need a cake please don't hesitate to call and order it. Thanks for all the support from all my family and friends!!
