It's Angry Birds Time!


So for my 4 year old birthday this year he requested Angry Birds. We decided since there were going to be a gazillion kids that cupcakes would make the most sense. We made pigs, red birds, yellow, birds, blue birds, black birds and white birds. Here they are:


 


We also decided to make an 8 inch cake so the birthday boy could blow out his candles. This is what we came up with:

 We had a lot of fun with these, they were time consuming but a lot of fun. The birthday boy was thrilled. Till next time.

It's Rasta Time!

 So a friend of mine asked if we would make a rasta themed cake for her stepdaughters birthday. Since we are now experts when it comes to tiered cakes, (okay maybe not experts) this is what we came up with:

I think it turned out pretty cute. This cake was a lot of fun to make and the design is super versatile.

Stop by next week for an Angry Birds cake and cupcakes.

It's a first, we made our first tiered cake!

A coworker asked us to make a graduation cake to celebrate the high school graduation of two of her grandkids.  They go to different schools, so we were not sure what to do.  The coworker said she wanted a tiered cake and told us what the kids did while in school.  Here is what we came up with.


This is the front view.  Luckily the two schools both had green and white as school colors so we just needed to add a little blue to one side.



This is Ashley's side, she was a basketball player and a star student.


Amie was very happy with her Jersey, I was just happy she was there helping since she is 9 days past having a baby!



This is Taylor's side.  He was into music and played the guitar.



For our first tiered cake I have to say I'm happy with it.  It gets delivered tomorrow, and hopefully the coworker likes it.

Congratulations Dr. Sean

My friend who grew up a few houses down had a great accomplishment to celebrate this past weekend.  He's became a Doctor!   So cookies were in order.  Dr. Sean went to the University of Minnesota so this is what I came up with.

Wonder Woman

My friend Marc and I share a birthday week, and Marc loves Wonder Woman.  Last year Amie and I made this cake to surprise him.


This year I wasn't sure what I could do Wonder Woman themed to top last years cake since he loved it so much.  So I thought and thought, then came across this image after searching Wonder Woman on Google.


And I said to my self, I think I could make that into a cookie.  So out came the KopyKake and this is what the end result looks like.





Marc LOVED them, and I've told him he needs to pick a new superhero because I'm not sure I can top the Wonder Woman cookie.

NY Yankees Cookies



A very good friend of mine does not like cake, I know right, so for her birthday Amy and I made NY Yankees cookies. She is a die hard Yankee fan and I thought it would be fun to make cookies that look like their jerseys. Here they are: 




They were a ton of fun to make and I think they look awesome!! Hopefully the birthday girl loves them.

Hoppy Easter

It's been a crazy week with working overtime, making a failure of a birthday cake, yankee cookies, and also squeezing in some Easter cookies.

Last year I saw these on Sweet Sugar Belle's Website.  I search and searched some more for a cookie cutter that would work for the Peeps Cookies.  I had no luck until I saw a post on facebook from Copper Gifts about a cookie cutter that was perfect.

The cookies were a hit at the family Easter dinner, I'm pretty sure my brother smuggled quite a few home.






I will try and get Amie to make a post about the Yankee Cookies since I failed to take any photos.
