3D Flower with Ladybug

A colorful daisy with a ladybug on top.  That was the request. 


I love to see the new themes people choose!  This is Raegen's 2nd birthday and 2nd cake from me!

Here is the feedback I received!
Karen,
Once again, you've outdone yourself! Raegen's 2nd birthday cake, the ladybug on the daisy, was so cute! It was a shame to have to cut it, but since we knew from experience just how wonderful the cake was going to be, we dove right in!! It is so obvious how much love & time you put into your cakes. Thank you for making Raegen's day so special!
Tracie R.

50th Wedding Anniversary

50 Year Anniversary is the Golden anniversary.

A lovely celebration held at Savannah Quarters Country Club, called for a delicious cake from Cake Believe!


Frosted in buttercream, and hand piped with buttercream scrolls. 
The monogram plaque is made from fondant and painted with gold luster dust.  The 50 on top is also made from fondant.
I was actually able to paint luster dust on the buttercream word once it crusted.....how fun is that?

Happy 50th!  And many, many more!

Baby Gender Reveal Cake

Finding out what gender your new baby will be is always an exciting part of becoming a parent.

New ways to announce what your baby will be to your friends and family is also a very fun experience.  

  Jana heard a story about having a party and revealing the gender of the baby to everyone.  She said she wanted gender neutral colors and a polka dot theme.  And since nobody knew the gender a big question mark to keep people guessing.  I decided to add the male and female symbols as an accent.
Sounds fun, right?!
Well heck yeah! 
 Because the only way you're finding out the baby's gender at Jana's party.....
is to cut open the cake!

Tinting the cake either pink or blue, so when the parents to be cut the cake everyone can SEE!

Jana sent me a picture of the cake once it was cut.  She said the party was a blast.
I love being a small part of such an important day for someone's family!
Congratulations on your baby BOY to be!

Chocolate Covered Strawberries Cuppies!

What could be more delicious than a vanilla almond sour cream cupcake, topped with delicious chocolate buttercream and THEN topped with a Valrhona chocolate covered strawberry????

Probably nothing.
Happy Birthday Hollie!

Pink Bow Gift

The "gift" cake.  It is such a great idea to buy a gift that is edible! 


This cake is frosted in buttercream and adorned with a fondant bow and gift tag.
Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too?

Firetruck Party

For Brett's 2nd birthday (click link to check out her party blog), his mom asked the local volunteer fire department to bring a truck to the house and let the kids learn and have fun! What a wonderful idea!


She also wanted a cake that would fit that theme.


So here is the top view of his cake.



And here is the front view.


And just for fun a quick close up of the panels.

Everything is edible! I used fondant and chocolate for accents. You can even tell I used OREO's for the tires!


Happy 2nd Birthday Brett!
