Olivia the Pig Cake

I had so much fun making this adorable Olivia the Pig Cake.  The color theme for this cake are red, sea foam green and white.  Loved this color combination.  The cake itself is Vanilla cake with Vanilla buttercream.  To add to the cuteness, the 3 layers of the cake (inside) are also colored red, sea foam green and pink. 

Olivia was hand made out of gum paste and fondant.  I think she came out really cute.  The lollipops are also hand made out of gum paste and fondant.

The birthday girl's name and the number 3 is free formed out of fondant.  

A closer look on the details of the cake.

Here's a picture of what the cake looked like inside.  Loved the way it turned out.

Floral Buttercream Cake

This simple, yet adorable floral cake was for my dearest mother-in-law.  It is an almond cake covered with almond buttercream.  The flowers and leaves are hand piped using colored almond buttercream.  White sugar pearls are used to accent the yellow flowers.

Inside the cake, there are 2 layers of Guava filling and a layer of almond buttercream in the middle. Yum!

Under the Sea Baby Shower Cake

This Under the Sea themed cake was especially made for my friends' baby shower.  It is decorated with adorable sea creatures, corals, shells, and sand.  I truly enjoyed designing and making this cake for them.  The parents to be and the guests absolutely loved the cake!

The cake is covered with light blue fondant.  When I was coloring the light blue fondant, I added in a bit of turquoise color to give it that water/swirled effect.  The shark and the dolphin are hand made out of gum paste.  I used fondant to make the rest: the sea turtle, fishes, starfishes, corals, shells, etc.  The sand is made out of crushed cookies.  Graham crackers works real well but I used Maria cookies instead (by Iberia).

Here's the another view of the cake.

The cake flavor is dark chocolate cake w/ creamy peanut butter buttercream.  You can't go wrong with that flavor combination.  The cake was moist and delicious.  It was a hit!
