Basket weave cake





My favorite of Wilton's course 2 cake. I loved doing the basket weave after a long time. Made the royal icing flowers ahead of time. I had lil trouble. Probably my tip had grease and royal icing was breaking. But managed somehow! It was a lovely cake. I made this couple of months before for a lil girl and I am taking the same order again for her lil sister(she too wants the same cake!!!!). This is a vanilla cake of Ann Warren with vanilla buttercream. Flowers and butterfly are made of royal icing.

Dora / Jungle theme cake

A small girl's request!  She wanted Dora and jungle animals. Dora and all animals are totally edible. Dora  took long time in the making. But the final product was totally worth it! Searched the net to get a good Dora pic. In every pic she was in a shirt n shorts. There was one doll pic where she was wearing a beautiful dress. Took my inspiration from that cute lil ' doll. 

The animals were a big hit in the party.  The sugar bugs, flowers, mushrooms and butterflies accented the cake beautifully!

SweetHeart Cake

Here is my first attempt at eggless vanilla cake. I  have tried chocolate cake a few times but  never a vanilla. A girl requested me for an eggless cake for her hubby. I used condensed milk in place of eggs and turned out, the cake had amazing texture. The was interested in my floral cakes. My floral cakes are usually covered with meringue buttercream. So it was bit of a challenge for me. I found out a recipe for whipped cream buttercream and I am in love with the taste! I had trouble getting the colors right though. However, at the end the cake looked perfect! Would make a great Valentine gift as well!

Ooey Gooey Molten Chocolate lava cake

I wanted to try Chocolate lava cake from long time. I broke 3 of my ramekins and just had one left. Don't have time to go and buy ramekins for my experiment! So, I added Wilton's silicon cupcake mold and a small size bundt mold to my experiment! Searched thru' lots of recipes and went with Paula Deen's. It was lip smacking good! Tried soft center and gooey center. A big hit, my son loved it! Got a very good review from my neighbor as well!

Car Cake for my son


There were 2 cakes that I made for my son this birthday! One was on the actual birth date and the other for the party. My son love CARS! He has hell a lot of car toys and of course broken a lot too! He has this hot wheels car set that he got as present last year! He loves playing with them all the time. I took one as my model and made this cake. He was so excited while making this cake. He came n kissed it lot of times. After the cake cutting, he started crying! He was upset that his car broke! Poor lil' boy! So we didn't cut the Tom's head on the party day! Didn't want him to cry! ;-)

The cake here is yellow butter cake with buttercream frosting covered in red fondant!
