It seemed like a crime to make this cake...

So we're watching Vancouver Vs. Toronto on Saturday night, and I'm making THIS!

It felt like cheating on our favorite hockey team! But it did turn out cool, and fyi, Mike made the logo which was the hardest part! And since it's a Doug Gilmour jersey... we'll let it slide.

All You Need Is Cake!

So, I've gotten my song assignment and team member's for this year's cake walk!

Ron Clark from EZ Rock

Cathy Derkac from Die Nasty

and the big one.. the sponsor...

Jonathan Rockliff of Rockliff Pierzchajlo Architects

Very exciting! The event is 2 weeks away!!

Catching up...

So, it's been a while since I've posted any pictures! I haven't made too many cakes in the last month or two, but I do have a couple of pictures to share.

Mike and I have moved to the south side of Edmonton, and I'm busy in school.. so there hasn't been too much experimenting in the kitchen!

Coming up though is the Cake Walk! It's a fabulous event for the Nina Haggerty Centre for the Arts. I had the pleasure in assisting with a cake last year, now I'm all on my own!! I can't wait to post some details when I get some.

Check out the link below though... and please come! Tickets are $75, totally worth it!

Here's a cake I made for Mike's best friend Tim, it was his birthday.

And a cake for Sherry's (co-worker) daughter's birthday.

Baby Shower Cake!

Dont you just love baby showers and all the cute little stuff that goes along with them???

That's what I was thinking about with this cake for a lady at work.

Bottles and duckies and onesies, oh my!

Tea anyone??

I have fallen behind posting pictures!!!! The teapot you see above is for Tamara's Grandma's 90th birthday. I hope she likes it!!

Next, the sombrero for Kristy's dad's birthday. Feliz cumpleanos Senor Dennis!! (Happy Birthday in spanish!)

I shall call him "Pinchy"

So, this is what I made this weekend.

Isn't he cute??

It was for a lobster party for a friend of a coworker. This was so fun to make! Mike actually helped me quite a bit... mostly detailing stuff.



The lobster was carved from cake, there's no pan for this sort of thing (that I know of, with my luck, there's one out there exactly like it, right?) And the base is made of half chocolate and half vanilla cake, covered in chocolate fondant.



Next up... a Mexican Sombrero!

Who said cake can't be good for your health?

Here's a picture of the display cake I made for an auction supporting Breast Cancer this upcoming weekend. The event is on Saturday night at Bo Diddly's, I highly recommend going to support a good cause and bidding LOTS to have me make you your very own cake!
