My Godson loves Naruto, so I came up with this design for his birthday. I used a projector to transfer the image on the cake, traced it and then colored the whole cake with individual piped stars. He absoloutly loved it, he says his Auntie makes cool cakes!

I admit I'm not a fan of Spongebob, but I couldn't resist putting this together for a young ladie's birthday party.

Precious Moments Baby Shower cake

This is another baby shower cake for a sweet co-worker of mine. This time I tried a different kind of icing, Swiss Meringue buttercream. Its made mostly with egg whites and sugar..It's a little time consuming and tricky, but the end results are to die for! Surprisingly it has a light sweet taste, almost like ice cream. The image of the baby is also traced and colord in different shades of melted chocolate.

A surprise baby shower cake. The baby was actually traced and colored in chocolate. The Mom to be said it was just as chocolatey as the baby she was expecting! Its iced in buttercream icing, and has fondat accents.

Barbie Princess cake

This is for a little girl who always wished to have a barbie doll birthday cake. This was simple vanilla cake with vanilla cream filling.

Ahhh kids, gotta love 'em!

Allow me to introduce myself

Hello there, welcome to my little slice of cake heaven. My name is Ingrid and I just love cakes, as you can tell. I fell into this hobby by pure chance, on a flight back home from New York. I happened to come across a wedding cake challenge on the Food Network that facinated me. A cake course or two later, I started making cakes for co-workers, family and friends. After much encouragement and support, the rest the say is history! I've put together this blog to give everyone a chance to view my creations, and tempt you all a little more. Enjoy
