carpenter cake, homemade marshmallow fondant, tool cookies, vanilla cake

This was truly a “change of life” cake. Not for me, but for Ron, the cake’s recipient. A few months ago, his coworker asked me to make goodies for his special going away party.

Ron was actually just leaving one job to embark on a new career….to be a finish carpenter.

This is a 9″ vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream. All of the tools and other details are are made from homemade marshmallow fondant.

And cookies, too…I love these cookies, so fun! Would be great for a special dad on Father’s Day.

Congrats to you, Ron! Good luck in your new career!

baby reveal, marble cake

Here’s another cute gender reveal cake for a wonderful couple who is expecting baby #2 in January…I did a pumpkin reveal cake for their first baby boy, Ashton, a few years ago, as well as this adorable Disney “Cars” themed birthday cake and cookies for him last year.

It’s a 4-layer 8″ chocolate/vanilla marble cake, smooth iced with vanilla buttercream and a hidden layer of (pink?? blue??) buttercream (shhhh, I can’t tell the gender!!).

It’s a BOY! (chill out, by the time this posts, Mommy already knows… 🙂
