In the Christmas Spirit


A Christmas Cake!  Just for kicks, I went ahead and made a Christmas cake.  I wanted to try out some new stuff.  This is a Double Chocolate cake with Strawberry Filling and Cream Cheese Icing.  There are chocolate filled wafer cookies lining the outside, wrapped in real ribbon, and topped with a Christmas centerpiece.

21st Birthday


 
Hunter's 21st Birthday cupcakes.  Vanilla and Chocolate cupcakes with Royal Icing (which I have learned doesn't work so great on cupcakes.  The cupcakes didn't look quite as nice the next day and I had to add some Buttercream "accents" to fix them up a bit.  I now have a new technique to make a nice smooth textured cupcake using buttercream icing.)

Happy Thanksgiving!



 
 
As requested, a strawberry cake with strawberry filling.  Cream cheese icing and fondant accents.  The turkey holds a sign reading "Eat More Ham".  Ha!
