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). :)

SMH

smh.
(shake my head.)
Earlier this week my mom asked me if I could make a princess themed cake for my cousin's 4th birthday. The only thing is that my cousin is very specific with which princesses she likes. For instance, I thought she might like Sleeping Beauty/Aurora, but no she doesn't. She doesn't like her because she is scared of the witch. That's understandable. I used to be afraid of that witch too. As much as I loved that movie, every time the fireplace scene would come on, I would run away like a little cry baby. At the time, I thought Maleficent was the most horrifying thing ever. The fireplace scene (below) would just always give me the heeby jeebies!! 
See? Isn't that scene creepy? (excuse the french..)
Anyways, I could babble about Disney for days, but I won't. 
...for now. Hehe ;)
So long story short, I made my cousin a cake, however; MY MOM GOT THE WRONG DATE! Oh my goodness. 
Turns out mom thought that my cousin's birthday was yesterday, November 12th, but really, it's actually next Saturday, November 19th. I guess now my cousin will just get an early birthday cake! 
Note: My apologies for the amount of Disney videos in this post. Making this cake just put me in the Disney music listening mood! (:
The cake...
fun fact - as of now, this is the biggest cake that I have made.
If you haven't guessed, her favorite disney princesses are Mulan (even though she technically isn't a princess?), Cinderella, Jasmine, and Ariel.
Mulan!
"Honor to Us All" 
(this was the dress I tried to copy with fondant)
Cinderella!
"Cinderelly"
I don't know why but while working on the Cinderella song, I couldn't help but just think of this song! Might I add I just love Gus Gus! He's so fat and adorable. Hahahah :D
Jasmine!
"A Whole New World"
Ahh, who wouldn't want to ride on a magic carpet ride?! 
Ariel!
"Under the Sea"
This song is just so fun! "The seaweed is always greener...under the seaaaaa!"
