Yes You Can....

The "as if" factor has always had
a positive influence on me....act as if,
fake til you make it...all work...
I like the eloquence of this even more!

Lauren's Birthday Cupcakes

Lauren requested that I make her
cupcakes to take to school to share
with the kids in her class....she
specifically requested that they
be reindeer cupcakes...
So Rudolph it was...all the same so
each child had the exact same one.



Here they are all packed up to go!









The cupcakes were
vanilla cake with
chocolate icing. topped
with various embellishments
to create a cute little
reindeer.


They made a big hit with
the kids in Lauren's
class.

Lauren's Birthday Cake

Preliminary Preparations for creating
a birthday cake for my friend Lauren
McNamara's 8th Birthday Cake.

She had chosen to have a "makeup/Diva"
Cake! It was a lot of fun to create and
getting to see her face when she got to
view it for the first time was awesome!












The cake was Vanilla, Vanilla, Vanilla
four layers of vanilla cake, with vanilla
butter cream icing, vanilla fondant topped
the cake and the sides were basket weaved
with vanilla butter cream.


All of the components of the make up and
and shoe and pearls were created out of
edible vanilla fondant.

So much fun!!!

This is how it starts...raw vanilla
cake.
