My daughter turned 4 around the time Disney's The Princess and The Frog was released. The bottom cake is a Norwegian marzipan recipe, with a big lily pad for the princess to stand on. The princess has a cake skirt covered with a marshmallow fondant dress.


My father-in-law shares a birthday with my daughter. He loves his Harley so I made him a small marzipan cake with the motorcycle topper and fondant flames on the sides.


Optimus Prime was Anthony's birthday cake last year. It took 4 cake mixes and was only the second fondant cake I had ever made. I took the extra cake and fondant to make little single-serving trucks for each of his friends who came to the party.

This little fisherman looks just like the real birthday boy! (a bit fatter, maybe)


This R2D2 cake was to celebrate my oldest child's 9 year old birthday. While far from perfect, it definitely tested my patience and taught me a lot about covering a big cake with fondant. I was still putting the finishing touches on when his friends showed up for the party, but they all enjoyed watching it get put together.
I let my kids use the extras from Julie's birthday cake to create their own masterpiece.

My 7 year-old son wanted the Earth for his birthday, so I handed it to him on a platter.

This cake was my first attempt at making gum paste flowers. The orchid was very fragile and broke when I put it on the cake; but, overall, I was happy with the way the flowers turned out.
My burger-loving husband got hamburger cupcakes with brownie "burgers," cookie "fries," and frosting "ketchup"

Grandpa Hart's 90th birthday cake was made with bold crayola colors to celebrate his long, energetic, youthful life.

Cool Cake Creations
















I am relatively new to the cake making hobby, but have had so much fun making these for family and friends. As a new cake maker I am willing to sell my cakes at a beginner's discount. Special occasions are more exciting when accompanied by a special cake! Choose a design you see here or request a custom design.
