Ah, the lazy days of summer… What could be better than a backyard barbecue? Well, how about a cake that LOOKS like barbecue? This ribeye steak looks hot off the grill, but it’s actually chocolate cake! (Vegetarian friendly!) You may remember this t-bone steak cake I made a while back. That one was lots of… Read More
I had a very exciting cake to make this week – I made the birthday cake for Canadian NBA superstar Andrew Wiggins! I’ve made jersey cakes before, but never for the person actually ON the jersey. I replicated his jersey down to the last detail, including his team logo! His team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, was… Read More
Do you want to build a Frozen cake? And no, I don’t mean heading down to your local DQ (though those ice cream cakes are DELICIOUS)… I mean the smash-hit Disney movie with those catchy songs that kids (of all ages) couldn’t stop singing (ever…). With Toronto’s first real touch of winter weather lately, what better time to… Read More
Everyone loves a good steak. If you’re craving something that looks meaty and but tastes sweet, this cake should hit the spot! This nice, juicy t-bone is actually a chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream. It’s covered in a blend of fondant and modelling chocolate and hand-painted to give it that char-grilled look and texture. The… Read More
Today’s sweet and simple cake was for a girl who loves yellow. Last time, that was her only request – she wanted her cake to be yellow, so I made this cute bunting cake. This year, she’s into lions, too, so this wild little cake it was!
Go Habs go! As a proud Toronto resident and a long-suffering Leafs fan, I’m just happy to see Canadian teams in the playoffs. At the moment, I’m glad to see the Canadiens! As I write this post, I’ve got the Montreal-Tampa Bay Game 1 on in the background, and they just tied it up. Woot!… Read More
Here is a cute little Paw Patrol birthday cake. It was inspired by Marshall the dalmatian, who is apparently the birthday boy’s favourite character from the show! Everything is edible, of course, including the handmade logo and the puppy paw prints on the cake board! Happy Birthday, Elliott! I hope it was a “paw-sitively” wonderful day.… Read More
A trio of cute little animals decorates this sweet first birthday cake! Here’s Mr. Giraffe: Mr. Lion, chillin’ and danglin’ on the edge of the tier: And little Mr. Elephant (okay, maybe he’s more rotund than little…): They all have cute little tails, as well, but for some reason I didn’t think to get a shot… Read More
I make a lot of mousse cakes, but today we have something a bit different – an actual MOOSE cake! As a proud Canadian, I loved making this birthday cake. The request was for a Canada-themed cake to match the plaid-and-moose adorned invitations, so this was what I came up with! What could be more classically… Read More
Today’s pretty cake was designed for a little girl whose favourite colour is yellow – I think it fit the bill! I balanced the delicate lace-y borders with fun, multi-coloured bunting and a big, polka dot bow.
