I have been working!

Well, I have been working on my pictures. It is hard to edit them when they are all still on your camera. But once I got them on the computer it was pretty easy. I have a few of them done and will be working on the rest later on. 
I did get the photos done of the Wedding Cake that I did last month. This was my first non-family wedding cake that I did. I was really nervous but very excited about doing it. I went out of my comfort area and did something new. So, this was a learning experience and the bride and groom loved it. 
This is a white 3 layer cake with butter cream icing. White butter cream swirls with black accents. The flowers are made from chocolate modeling clay that I made. These poppies were each hand made so each one is different. Making the flowers was new to me. I played around with several different types of media before I found the chocolate. This will not be the last time I use this. I had so much fun in making the flowers. The only thing is - you have to work very quickly with the chocolate as it will start to soften and melt in your hands. So, this was a long process just to make one flower as I had to keep putting it in the fridge to chill. 

This is a close up of one of the flowers. 

Thanks for taking the time out to check out my blog. I will have more up in a few days. If you have an event coming up and need some yummy treats, just contact me. I do cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. 


Happy Baking
