When I started making special cakes for my children's birthdays, I never knew it would lead me here. Covered in powdered sugar, fingernails dyed with food coloring, and running to weddings and birthday parties. Follow me here where all my Frosted Fantasies are on display to browse.

Striped Wedding Cake



These flowers took me over ten hours to make out of fondant. The bride showed me a picture of the flowers she was carrying in her bouquet. Then a picture of a striped topsy turvy cake. This was only my second topsy turvy and my first wedding. I was terrified but determined, ya know. The pressure was on!




I am very proud of how it turned out. The final touch of edible sparkles really made it, well, shine.

Tiered Rose Wedding Cake


My tiered rose wedding cake was one of the biggest honors ever! To make the wedding cake for two of the people I love from the bottom of my heart. To see them meet, grow, and change for each other. Than to finally see the people they were meant to be, once they found and completed each other.


 The bridesmaid's flowers were all hand made by the bride, out of died tissue paper. So I tried to match the fondant roses I was making to the sort of coral, to pink, to orange color she had . It turned out gorgeous!
We partied like it was 1999. Even though they probably have no idea what that song even is. LOL!~


 Makes me want to have a wedding and a cake all over again!
Love you Wendy Star!!!

Winter Wedding Cake

  A wedding cake has got to be one of the coolest things to make. It is such a special feeling, to be a part of some one's magical day. When I make them I feel hugely responsible for going beyond what the couple expects. I want to take their breathe away when they see it for the firs time. Or laugh, depending on what kind of wedding it is. Each bride is different. That is why it is imperative to get to know them and their wants. To hear their dreams and mold it into cake!





  This winter wedding was very elegant. Their were tall feathers and sparkling branches beautiful vases for the center pieces. The blushing bride even wore gorgeous white feathered earrings. It was all very dreamy, and romantic, yet classy at the same time. I wanted that feeling of being in love and this sort of blurred- around- the- edges- dream feel into the cake. The couple asked for something to reflect the decor of a white, nature inspired, winter feathery wonderland.
       
 Thrilled, my brain started on the project. The first thing I thought of was to make cake pop doves or some kind of bird dipped in white chocolate. . Also, to space out the cakes for space to put real feathers. It would be covered in fondant so they wouldn't stick. Plus to wrap it all together a climbing branch. The snowflakes are also made of melted white chocolate.  So, what do you think? It was such an honor to make and a ton of fun as well. Wedding cakes are the best!
