This 40th birthday cake is a “double barrel” cake, which is basically two 8″ round tiers stacked and iced to look like one super-high tier. Happy 40th!

Happy holidays, everyone! I can’t believe we’re halfway through December. I haven’t done a bit of Christmas shopping - ugh!! However, I have been busy designing away - here’s the latest project. This holiday-themed design included red, white, and silver accents, including a large fondant bow topper. Of all the “stripe-y” cakes I’ve done, I’m most pleased with the vertical stripes on the bottom tier of this one…
I’ll have several more designs to share before the holiday break… stay tuned!

These little vanilla/vanilla cupcakes are for the team party for the Austin little league team Orange Crush. They had a great season and deserve to do some celebrating tonight! Go team!

I can’t tell you how excited I was to design this cake! The design is is five tiers, inspired by the lovely centerpiece arrangements created by Michelle at the Silver Vase. Each tier was covered in pearly white or teal fondant and accented with brown satin ribbon. My favorite part of the design is the cascade of delicate, handmade sugar orchids.

Hi all! Just wanted to share the lovely post that Meg of Sienna Wedding: Finds for the Modern Bride did earlier this month on Wicked Cakes…
From Sienna Wedding:
When I came upon this cake by Austin based cake designers at Wicked Cakes, I could not pass up the chance to post it. I love the simplicity of the cake itself, and the pop of color and life that comes from the butterflies.

Check out the blog! Meg brings together absolutely lovely photos of all things wedding, from cakes to exquisite table settings to real weddings. Thanks, Meg!

This birthday cake design was created to reflect a carnival/big top theme. It’s technically a two-tier cake, and it boasts lots of bold colors and hand-cut sugar lettering and circus animals.
