Jamie

Today marks the day as Jamie (you may also remember as my sister's "little sis") and her boyfriend's one year anniversary! Congrats to the two of them!

As a gift to her boyfriend, she requested me to make a cake that resembled this hat.

I tried my best to free hand the Seattle Mariners logo However, it was quite a challenge, so I apologize for it not being very accurate..

Flavor: Vanilla with vanilla buttercream

"Happy One Year! We hit it out of the ballpark!!" 

June 8 - June 13

Normally I like to make a weekly post (depending on if I even have orders haha) but nevertheless, I forgot to add on two orders I got when I posted the post about Dance Dance Evolution!! Soo to catch you all up on what I've been up to.... ;)


Order #1 (June 8): Pig cupcakes for Jacqueline's mom.

Flavor: Vanilla with coconut custard filling
*the fondant is almond flavored

Order #2 (June 9): Princess cupcakes for Tori (to give to Mr. Case's daughter)

Flavor: Red velvet with cream cheese buttercream

Order #3 (June 11): A Northwood Timberwolf cake for the Distinguished Timberwolves Award Ceremony (to give to Mr. Banks)

Flavor: Vanilla with cream cheese buttercream

*This is the first cake I've made in awhile where I didn't cover it with fondant! Just a random fun fact! Haha

Last but not least...

Order #4 (June 13): Graduation cupcakes for Kennedy High's graduation

Flavor: Red velvet with cream cheese buttercream

*Another fun fact: this order was both ordered and finished on the same day! I surprisingly was able to successfully finish this order in about 3-5 hours! I'm still shocked. 

For future orders: I would not recommend anyone to order last minute! I cannot guarantee that I will be able to always finish the order you wish to have. Nevertheless, it never hurts to ask for your desired baked good! Ideally, 4 days or more is a good amount to place an order (the more in advance the better). :)

I mentioned last month that I was taking a course called, "baking and pastry fundamentals" and so far we've baked and what not but the day that I've been waiting for has come!! WE'RE BEGINNING TO DECORATE! :D

Yesterday (March 27th) we practiced with fondant and I couldn't think of anything on the top of my head but I knew I wanted to incorporate flowers somehow. Here is the cake! I don't think it's tooooo shabby considering I was winging all of the ideas... ;)

Oh My..

I'm terrible. I have yet again forgotten to post, posts that should have been posted awhile ago.. (...wait, did that even make sense? hahaha) Anyways,  what I forgot to post awhile ago was that I made an Angry Birds cake for my little cousin for his birthday ( February 29/Leap Day ;) )! Another than that cake, I also made my friend Tori, and rainbowed layered cake with some musical cut outs. It's been a tradition of mine to always have some sort of rainbowed layers in whatever I make her. It's only been the second year since I've done it, but then again, I also haven't been baking (..intensely?) for that long. In fact, it'll be exactly a year since I started decorating/baking/using fondant intensely on March 24th!! That's so soon! Ah, crazy!!!!
