What I've Been Up To...

Posted by Vanessa at 1:31 PM 0 comments
I started this blog a few months ago and haven't gotten around to posting any pictures or recipes.  I wanted to take a quick moment to post a few pictures of the things I've been up to these past few months.

1- My cousin Brenda's 15th Birthday Cake
When my cousin asked if I could make her a cake for her Quince, I couldn't say no.  After looking through tons of pictures and getting ideas this is the design we came up with.
This consisted of a vanilla cake with strawberry cream cheese filling and cream cheese frosting.


2- My little brothers 19th Birthday Cake
Sure- he isn't so little (he's actually WAY taller than me) but he's still my little brother and I wanted to make him a special cake for his birthday.  He loves (LOVES!) soccer and his favorite player is Xavi from the Madrid Team.  I decided to recreate his Xavi jersey in cake form.  He was thrilled when he saw it!
This was a vanilla-chocolate chip cake with chocolate fudge frosting.
                                                   
3- Logan's Birthday Cake
This cake was made last year but it was my first "real" fondant cake (the previous fondant cake I made was really just practice and stayed at home).
This was a chocolate/vanilla marble cake with chocolate frosting. Cocoa Puffs were used to reseamble dog food.




I'll be posting more pictures in the near future of the most recent cakes I've made.
Thanks for visiting!!
