Dora The Explorer

Dora The Explorer

December 2009




This is a 4 layered cake with the bottom 2 layers as chocolate cake and the top 2 layers as vanilla. It is meant to represent the outdoor adventures of Dora the Explorer.





The Dora figurine candle and pipe cleaner palm tree were added later.


A rushing waterfull- I sprinkled sugar sprinkles to make it look like crashing water.

Palm Trees & pink flowers decorated the sides




AKA Birthday

AKA 21st Birthday




This was made for my friend Zimmy who was turning 21 and is also an AKA Sorority Sister.



The pink and green are the sorority's colors and I attempted to make it look like the cake had pearls draped across it's edges.





Oh Christmas Tree!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!


Double layer yellow sheet cake, hand carved into Christmas tree shape with a pretzel rod tree trunk.


I was a little preswsed for time in finishing this one, so there was a lack of creativity when it came to the ornaments and decoration on the tree.

"23"


23 - Birthday Princess
December 2009


Each number is a double layer sheet cake (totalling to 4 cakes) hand carved into each number...leaving a lot of scraps!! :-)






Getting into the grooves of this cake was a challenge while trying to decorate the sides.

Kristy Kake

Chocolate Sheet Cake with 3-D Gift





The gift made the weight of the cake a little uneven and had to be supported with toothpicks, but the overall look was pretty.


Single later sheet cake with the gift being two layers thick
