And another!!

One more picture for today!   My first dummy cake, it was inspired by the cover of Martha Stewart Weddings a few months ago.  This is my take on the butterfly theme, the butterflies were purchased, they're made of feathers, the cake is fondant covered.

While you're waiting for new and exciting creations... here are some oldies!

These pictures are of Rhonda and Jeff's wedding cake.

A 6" round on top and 200 + cupcakes below!!  I couldn't find any pearls premade so I made them all by hand by rolling tiny fondant balls and then rolling those in pearl dust.

This I made at my last job making cakes... it wasn't all me, I had help but I wanted to show it off anyway because I was just so darn proud that it was in the paper, on the cover of the section!

And then another one I was really proud of... Terry and Tamara's wedding cake.  They were married in Hawaii and had a tropical reception here in Edmonton.  

They cut the cake with a shovel!

A new look and much delayed pictures!

So, in an effort to get this blog going, I've created a new look!  I hope you like it.

Upcoming.. There is an auction at Bo Diddly's on June 13 and there will be an opportunity to bid on a Sweetly Styled cake!   There will also be a cake on display that you can oooh and aaahhh over while you offer up big bucks to support finding a cure for Breast Cancer!  It's a great cause and you get delicious cake to boot... so bid lots!

As for last weekend's cake... have a peek!  It was for my coworker Debbie, she's a really cool lady and I was very honoured that she asked me to make a cake for her 50th birthday/25th anniversary.

You can't see too well, but the tree trunk on top has her initials and her husbands and their wedding date.  Also, some pictures of a finger swipe through the writing... a little girl didn't believe it was real!! Hahaha.

Cake makin'

Very soon... hopefully today, you will be able to access my blog via www.sweetlystyled.ca OR www.sweetlystyled.com.  I'm having some technical difficulties at the moment, but they are registered.

This week I'm working on a golf themed birthday/anniversary cake for my friend/coworker Debbie.  I can't wait to see how it turns out... so far I just have some gumpaste pieces made.

I'll post some pictures of the progress when there is something to show.  On another note... it's May 19th and when I woke up this morning there was snow on the ground.  Yikes.
