This mini mouse cake was created for a sweet little girl named Savannah’s first birthday party. The top tier was yellow cake with almond buttercream. The middle tier was chocolate with vanilla buttercream and the bottom tier was vanilla cake with strawberry preserves and vanilla buttercream.
Close up of the ears.
Savannah’s personal smash cake! Apparently she liked it so much she almost ate the whole thing!
Both cakes together.
With permission, I am sharing the amazing response I received from the customer who ordered this cake for her niece. This is why I love my job!
“I just wanted to drop a quick email to say thank you and to show my appreciation for all your hard work. Your cake was not only visually stunning but also tasted wonderfully. Everyone loved it and it really was a crowning touch to Savannah’s first birthday. I cannot stop saying enough good things about your work. Your professionalism and dedication to your craft really shines through. I look forward to using your services again in the future as I was completely satisfied with all your services. Thank you again for the amazing cake and please know that I will be referring you to anyone and everyone that is looking to have a custom cake made.”
With sincere appreciation,
Alexandra

I really enjoyed making this cake! Mazy’s husband ordered this custom cake for his wife’s 65th birthday celebration. He wrote a play called So Anyway… about their family and wanted a playbill on top of the cake. Apparently Mazy makes a mean Red Velvet cake so of course that’s what we made for her with vanilla swiss meringue buttercream and vanilla fondant.

This cake was created for an adorable little boy named Jackson’s first birthday party. The banana cake was covered with vanilla swiss meringue buttercream and vanilla fondant. The color scheme was created to match his birthday shirt. On top of the cake Jackson and his pals Elijah and Azela are playing together in a baby pool!

This cake was made for twin girls, Megan and Morgan’s first birthday Luau party. Whimsical, floral and fun. I loved making the hibiscus flowers!
