Yankee Onesie

I just love this cake! The design is so adorable.  I am a Yankee fan, too, so I was so excited to make this cake for my cousin's sister-in-law.


It my cousin's favorite cake flavor, Oreo cake with Oreo buttercream.  How many Oreo cookies? For this recipe I used about 120 Oreo cookies.

Thank you Chrissie Seto-Perez for the picture.

Wonder Woman Birthday Cake

My little adorable customer named Trinity turned five. Her mom requested me to make a Wonder Woman themed birthday cake for her daughter.  I decorated a simple, yet gorgeous (proud of my work) birthday cake with WW's essentials - outfit, tiara, wrist guards, and lasso. 



The top tier was red velvet cake with cream cheese filling and the bottom tier was chocolate cake with Swiss mocha buttercream.

Hello Kitty

My cousin's little princess (Natalie) celebrated her first birthday.  Cindy, my cousin and Natalie's mom, requested for 4 dozens of Hello Kitty cupakes.  Well, I decided to throw in a simple Hello Kitty sculpted cake.  My family are not chocoholics, so I made a butter cake with Oreo filling. The cupcakes were Oreo cupcakes with vanilla bean buttecream (Swiss style).

I LOVE HELLO KITTY! Who wouldn't?  I just adore the "cuteness and girliness" of Hello Kitty!

Dodge Challenger SRT, The HEMI

Sculpted cakes are difficult to make, but this project was a lot of fun.  I enjoyed sculpting cakes.  It's always a challenge to sculpt a very moist and dense cake.  Each time my knife cuts through the cake, cake sticks to the knife....ugh... such a mess!  I had to rinse my knife to rid off the cake.  My cake knife (14" long) helped a lot with carving a stack of cakes as big as 16" x 24" and as high as 5" tall. 

This cake was made for Marc's birthday.  The Hemi driver, Angelina the Ballerina, is Marc's son's (Paul) favorite musical character.  Paul enjoyed the show.  I would love to see little Paul's reaction when he saw the cake.

The Dodge emblem and logo were hand carved on fondant.


This cake was a Devil's food cake with chocolate buttercream and adorned with vanilla fondant.  Angelina the ballerina and the wheels were made of rice crispie treats.
