This is the cake that I made for my friend Courtney's baby shower (the baby's name is Zoey). The next picture is blurry but it shows the pregnant Courtney figure, that I made out of fondant, better.

This is the diaper cake I made for her present. The topper is actually a rattle and the little animal heads are little finger puppets!

Stadium of Fire


Devin's Aunt Diane had an extra ticket to the Stadium of Fire, and she was sweet enough to let me have it! I had never been and I'm totally converted to Stadium of Fire! Eventhough the performers included the Jonas Brothers, I found myself bobbin my head and getting into it! Unfortunately, Devin couldn't be there to enjoy it with me because he was still out in Wisconsin installing security systems. SheDaisy performed their song "Come Home Soon," which made me start crying like a baby thinking of how much I missed Devin. Mckenzie took one look at me trying to conseal my tears and she started crying. Jeanne took one look at us and started crying too! People probably thought we were crazy but the song was so emotional and we all just missed Devin so much! I love him even when he makes me emotional in public :)

These are a little overdue, but I couldn't post them before the wedding because Devin was forbidden to see them beforehand! Mckenzie was obviously the photographer and she did yet another amazing job! We went up American Fork Canyon to Silver Lake and the aspen groves near there. I designed my dress and had it custom made by a woman in my ward! She's amazing and I'd like to think that my dress is too!


Devin's dog Rush made an appearance. I think the pictures with him turned out hilarious. I had an 8x10 printed and framed for Devin's nightstand.



This next one is my favorite!

Just a few more i promise!

Broadbent's Wedding Cake


Broadbent, known as Steve to almost everyone else, got married July 2, 2009 and asked me to make his wedding cake! I was excited to make more marshmellow fondant and I can now say that I am very comfortable working with fondant now! I was really excited about how this cake turned out! The bottom tier was vanilla cake with a lemon creme filling, the middle tier was chocolate fudge with a chocolate mousse filling, and the top tier was lemon with a buttercream filling! Alli put Broadbent in charge of finding a cake topper so none of us were really surprised when he showed up with the ball and chain cake topper! (Just to clarify: He doesn't really feel that way, but that's totally his sense of humor!) Congrats you too, I'm soooo excited for you guys!

Carey's Wedding


This was definately a fun cake to make and very low stress because it was only one level! Imagine that all of the tiers have lots of different cute cupcakes on it (I didn't have time to wait for the display to be completed before I had to leave, so use your imagination.) Her wedding was so cute with tons of orange, pink, and green. The cake had as much chocolate as I could make it with! Triple chocolate fudge cake, chocolate mousse, and chocolate buttercream were all hiding out underneath the homemade marshmellow fondant!



I also helped Carey and her mom make these cute mini cupcakes for all of the little kids! They turned out so cute and colorful!

Shawna's Cake



This one was actually a fake cake used for Shawna (the lady that is making my AMAZING wedding dress!) She needed put together a wedding display with some of the dresses she's made and thought it would be a good idea to have a mock wedding cake to complete the wedding feel! So beneath the marshmellow fondant that I figured out how to make by hand, is only styrofoam! She asked me to make it the night before so I didn't have enough time to make the third layer, but I think it still turned out cute!

Brandon's Birthday and Father's Day


This was Brandon's 5th birthday cake. He really wanted a Wally cake and I didn't have much time, so the cake topper was perfect! Father's Day also happened to land on Brandon's birthday so I made a surprise cake for my dad! It wasn't much, but hey, his cake couldn't out-shine the 5 year old's cake!
