April Vacation is Sweet

The kids made a batch of chocolate cupcakes this afternoon!

The Easter Bunny brought this sweet t-shirt! (Livestrong!)

This is how the little one "helps."

He was so into the decorating!

It's a miracle all of my food photographs don't look like this one!

Lego Indiana Jones Cake

Lego Indiana Jones Cake, originally uploaded by bakers-cakes.

Indy is nine layers of Buttermilk Cake with Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting and handmade fondant. He is standing on a temple constructed of three layers of Baker's Cakes Signature Chocolate Cake with Double Chocolate Cream Cheese Butter Cream Frosting, topped with crushed graham cracker crumbs!

This cake was for one lucky boy who was turning six! He is a Lego maniac and loves the Indiana Jones Legos! After all twelve layers were assembled, there was a moment before we drove it to his house when I thought it easiest if we just volunteered to have his party here! The kids could gather round the fridge and sing Happy Birthday right here! But the cake made it to it's destination with no caketastrophies and the Birthday Boy was thrilled!

Sneak Peek!

I'm working on a massive cake for a customer this week. Here's part of it in progress:

Would these accessories be considered iconic? When done, this cake will total 12 layers!!!

Spring Chickens

Hummingbird cupcakes, with white chocolate cream cheese frosting, topped with coconut, Whoppers, and Peeps!

I bet you're wishing you could be in Mrs. Gadson's Kindergarden class tomorrow!!!

The Happiest Place on Earth!

This week a customer asked me to create a Disney themed Cake Pop. The shape is iconic!

What could be better than turning four and going to Disney world?

As I write this, I don't yet know the final outcome of the Iron Cupcake Earth Challenge! But what I do know is that I am so appreciative of everyone who voted and put out a call to vote for Baker's Cakes!!! We've had votes coming in from all over the country! Our west coast contingent in California, friends in Colorado, and our base, the Cupcake States as I like to call them: NY, MA, PA, NH, and NC. Let's not forget VT, FL, and all the others! It was so nice to hear from old friends and new as well!!! I wish I could personally hand deliver a cupcake and thank you to all for your support!!! Thanks SO much!!! 

All my love, 

Danielle
