I love doing the not so typical cake for baby showers, gender reveals, and weddings. This Dragon Ball Z cake definitely is not the normal baby shower cake and it could of not turn out any cooler!

It was a simple two-tiered cake. The top layer was covered in royal blue fondant and I cut the shape of the logo out in black chocolate fondant and then using a print out of the logo used an X-ACTO knife to cut out each layer and placed it on the black fondant. The bottom tier was covered in red fondant and I used a round cookie cutter to make the circles for the dragon balls and sprayed them with edible gold paint, lastly adding small red stars to finish them off.

I was provided with the cute little figurines and added them accordingly. The dragon on the top of the cake is a piggy bank that she plans on giving her grandson once he gets older. I love that! ​

After taking off a year of decorating cakes because of Andrew, this cake was a fun one to get back in the swing of things! To relaunch my bakery I decided to run a giveaway and by chance, cousin won a discounted cake just when she needed one for her son's birthday. The party theme was Star Wars, which I happen to love since I am geeky and I haven't done one in while. With me being home all day with Andrew, I knew I was going to have to prepare what I could when he allowed me to. I did most of the decorating in the morning while Jack was able to watch him and I could just focus on finishing it in time for us to leave for the party. I made a chocolate fondant to color black so I wouldn't have to use so much food coloring, plus it tastes delicious! The lettering I found an image on Google and used it to trace it on the white fondant using an X-ACTO knife. I cut out the shapes for the Stormtrooper free hand, but referencing an image, and lastly, the lightsabers were rolled out colored fondant that I sprayed the handles silver and added colorful buttons. I finished the cake off with some stars using different size cookie cutters.

Like last year, my Godmother requested cupcakes for her RCIA class to celebrate them entering into the Church. I didn’t want to make it just like last years cupcake cross and I also need to add more cupcakes than I did last year.

The cupcakes were once again a mixture of chocolate and vanilla, but with more cupcakes, I used an oversize sheet cake board and box to allow more room. I made the cross longer in all directions, which made it look really pretty!

I added a white banner like last years but piped God Bless in light purple buttercream. Then to complete the cupcake cross I added a few white royal icing calla lilies on the banner. ​

I think this might be my favorite cupcake cross to date!
