My 6th anniversary cake




I had to take 2 classes on the day of my Anniversary! One was with Lauri from Cake Alchemy and the other was with Ann Warren. I left my battery at home and was not able to take any pic. I carried my cake carefully from Manhattan to NJ on the path trains and bus with minimal damage so I could get a picture of it!(I missed taking the final cake pic on the last class and Ashok was upset about it). I got it home safely and took a pic! This cake has sunflowers, peonies, lilies, daffodils, lily of the valley, chrysanthemum,rose, tulips and some imaginary flowers! That was my last class(1 of 3 and the 3rd was a repeat). I LOVE,LOVE, LOVE the cake that I want to boast that I am a proud student of Ann Warren from Cupcake Cafe! :)

A bright and sunny Floral cake



Unfortunately, the friend of Ashok who requested for the cake couldn't make it to office the other day! So, made another cake for her. Loved the way it came out with all the beautiful colors. It's a chocolate vanilla swirl cake with vanilla buttercream frosting!

Blue floral cake - a trial at home



A friend of my husband requested for a cake of mine! Tried out Ann's buttercream recipe and a vanilla cake! Took inspiration from one of her cakes. It's not as great as her's, but still I love mine! :)

Class with Ann Warren of Cupcake Café

I had this wonderful opportunity to have class with Ann Warren from Cupcake Café! She taught her famous Floral Cakes! She has over 20 years of experience and it was so nice of her to share it with others! Her cupcakes and buttercream taste out of the world. She gave loads of buttercream to try out! Here is my first floral cake!
