Right after I did the wedding cake in February, I went back to my hand surgeon…and had surgery 2 weeks later to deal with a stitch my body had a bad reaction to. So I had to take a few weeks off from baking, but after a quick recovery, I was back in the kitchen. Here are some pics of my latest cakes!

Beach Baby

This cake was for a teacher school's baby shower. She and her husband had a tropical beach wedding and now that they are expecting, it was only fitting to have a beach themed baby shower. It was a fun cake to create!

Princesses, please

I got an e-mail early last week from someone I went to church with when we were little. She wanted a cake for her little one's birthday. She said her mom had told her I was doing cakes (not sure how her mom knew I was doing cakes...guess word travels) and that she had seen my Facebook page. She liked the princess cakes....just another sheet cake, but I thought it was cute.

Happy Birthday Mckenna!

Dr. A Cake

This summer when I was visiting my sister and her family in Columbia, SC, we visited a cupcake bakery in downtown. It was delicious! On the way home, my sister and I talked about me opening a real bakery one day and some of the things I would do. I came up with the idea of naming flavor combinations after the person who created it or someone I know who would love it. We came up with a few...

The GP (in honor of my grandfather): yellow cake and chocolate fudge icing
The Halliegator (in honor of my niece) : yellow cake and pink buttercream (with sprinkles!)
The George (in honor of the cutest dalmatian around): white cake with vanilla chocolate chip buttercream...because it looks like him!

So this week, I made a cake for Dr. A, my hand surgeon. It was a yellow/fudge marble cake, cream cheese icing, and crushed Oreos, and it has officially been named "The Dr. A!" The cake flavor can be changed, but The Dr. A means it will have cream cheese icing and crushed Oreos!

Here are some pictures that show the cake being made:
