Sonic Cake!!!

so for my oldest sons birthday, he loves sonic.
and strawberries.
so i decided to make a cake using fondant again.  i was really nervous about using fondandt againconsidering the last time the stuff tasted awful!!!  i mean super disgusting.  so i talked to my dearest friend Mandy and she gave me a recipe for some marshmellow fondant.  i was scared to make that too just cuz i'm kinda a pansy when it comes to trying new things by myself.

anyway, i made the 2 rounds and cut them each in half, iced, strawberried, and iced and then 'dirty iced' the whole cake and refridgerated it, then i iced it a again.

i then made all my sonic pieces....

and then i put it all together!!!!  and i have to say, i thought it was soooooooooo awesome!!!!

i am really pleased with myself, and how it turned out.  it gave me hope and excitment for the future projects!

and here i am with the awesome soncic cake hiding in the pantry so the birthday boy couldnt see it.

he LOVED it and so it made all the stressing and worrying so worth it!

anyway- yay for more cakes!!!!

Star Cupcakes

we are a total cupcake family here.

for birthdays i have found it MUCH easier to make and decorate cupcakes rather than whole cakes. and they are portioned just wonderfully for little kids! win-win if ya ask me!

so for my sweet little angels 6th birthday i made these cupcakes. they were a HUGE hit!

i LOVE the look of them!

these are the ones that i took to school for here.  i think i was the favorite parent for the day.  talk about an ego boost!  lol, all i did was make candy, put it in the molds, and then ice and top!

it was awesome!

definite repeat i think.... now to find different shapes!
