Po-Po-Po-Poker cake

Very seldom do I make a cake that I really love (I am a perfectionist)... but this time I impressed even myself. I love this cake! It is a poker themed cake obviously. It is a butter cake with butter cream icing. The cards and poker chips and banner are made all of fondant!! I think this is one of the best cakes I have done thus far!!! Every time I see it, I always want to sing that Lady GaGa song "Poker Face" Ha!Ha! Hope every one enjoys!!

Monogrammed cake and cupcakes


I made this cake and cupcakes for my niece's 7th birthday party. The theme was a brown and pink party. I made devil's food cake for both the cake and cupcakes. I used hot pink icing to decorate both. The monogrammed circles on the cupcakes are made out of fondant. Not much to it, but I think they are really cute.

Update and the beach




So much has been going on, I haven't been able to update in a while. My family and I just got back from a trip to Destin, FL. It was so much fun! It was my girls first trip to the beach and they loved it. My oldest daughter (6) and I went parasailing on the second day we were there. It was AWESOME! From 800 ft. in the air, you can see lots of cool things. We saw different schools of fish and even a few sting rays. I recommend doing that at least once in your life if you get the chance. Above are some pics from that trip. I love the sunset. I think it looks really cool.
