Cake decorating is something I grew up with as I have my mother to thank for all my inspiration. She always had the best cakes and everyone wanted her to make cakes for their occasion. I knew that one day I would be doing the same thing and my kids would have cool birthday cakes!

My Latest Creation...

   I was asked to make an Angry Birds cake for an 11 year old boy's birthday.  For those of you that don't know, Angry Birds is an extremely addicting game that you can play on your phone or online that involves using a sling shot to fly birds into these wooden structures where pigs are awaiting their destruction.  I have become addicted to this game...I admit it!  ;)
  So back to the cake.  I thought it would be really neat to re create a scene from the game on top of the cake so here it is....

 I made the Angry Birds out of Cake pops and used graham crackers for the wooden structure.  The customer loved this cake and I am extremely proud of it!  I had a little trouble with the sling shot and now have decided to invest in some gum paste and fondant classes.  If you know of any good classes let me know.  I have done some research online and have tried a few tricks of the trade but I am a hands on learning kind of girl and I know that is what you get with classes.

 More cakes coming soon.  I am making an FC Dallas soccer cake for a friend's birthday this weekend and will post pics soon.  By the way, I'm still thinking of names.  I've gotten a few suggestions.... "Frosted"  "Jewels Cakes" (cute...my daughter.)  And I've thought of "Sugar Cakes" or "Cutsie Cakes"  If you have any suggestions send them my way!  Thats all for now....
