The Wedding Cake



This cake is named the Wedding Cake because, as you could probably guess, it was for a wedding. :) This is a two tier cake, the bottom a 9" and the top tier 6". The cakes are lemon with a vanilla filling, and vanilla frosting.  The tops of the tier are a cross pattern, with a dot-pattern for the sides and border.

The Swirl Cake



This cake is affectionately known as "The Swirl Cake." The Swirl Cake was created mostly to see if I could. It was quite the process, let me tell you. The top picture was the cake prior to the swirl decoration, after giving it a more "polished" look so-to-speak. This was, surprisingly, only done using a non-patterned paper towel. Who would have guessed? This was a 9" vanilla cake with a raspberry filling. The frosting is an orange buttercream, though I wish I had used a darker color for the decoration. 

Blue & Green Cupcakes



Cupcakes are an adorable thing. I really think that no one can really not enjoy a cupcake. The perfect amount of cake with some frosting. Who can say no to that, really? These cupcakes are a vanilla cake, with damaske patterened wrappers, buttercream frosting, and sugar sprinkles.
