Hello Again Kitty

This is my second attempt at making a Hello Kitty cake at the request of a friend for her daughters birthday.  I like this one much better than the one I did two years ago. http://nomemade-cakesandcookies.blogspot.com/2010/08/hello-kitty-cake.html

 

I baked 3 layers using a 11x15 inch baking pan (1/3 sheet cake).  You could make a slightly smaller Hello Kitty and bake two layers using 9x13 pan.  
I used a Hello Kitty clip art as a template to cut out the cake shape.

For this particular cake I used 2 layers of Strawberry cake and the middle with Chocolate cake with Strawberrry Jam filling. Crumb coat a thin layer of butter cream frosting and then added rolled fondant. 

Bow, eyes, nose are all fondant.  Whiskers are toothpicks covered in fondant.  All are attached using corn syrup.


I didn't want them poking holes with candles into Hello Kitty's face so with my left over cake I made a small one.

Decorated with Wilton's Hello Kitty candles and cake rings which you can purchase through Amazon.com

Happy Birthday Cayli

Yoda Cake

This is my attempt at making a Star Wars Yoda cake...  With Christmas celebrations, job promotion, and assisting in our hospital grand opening even life has been a little hectic.  This is what I came up with with the little time I had.  I wanted to surprise my husband with a cake, I know he wasn't expecting it.

 Happy Birthday Sean!

Cherry Blossom Bachlorette Cake

I had a co-worker who was getting married and we decided to have a small office party for her.  

 small chocolate cake covered in Fondant.  

I used this silicon cherry blossom mold from Wilton's which I purchase from Wal-Mart to make this cake.   Since the bird faces only in one direction I took off it's beak and added it to the otherside of it's head so that the birds would face each other.

May The Frosting Be With You- Star Wars Cake

Come with me and we can rule the birthday party together...

Luke, I am your cake topper! 

Not the best cake I've done... Life is what happened and I got busy but I thought I should post this anyways.  For my 4 year old twins... Aiden Luke and Reese Liam.  Cake toppers purchased from Wal-Mart bakery.

 These paper masks were a great addition to the party also purchased at Wal-Mart.

 I didn't prepare a head of time and had to make a last minute pinata.  Empty cereal box stuffed with Candy, glow stick swords, baloons, etc. Wrapped in blue tissue paper, taped on ribbon, and a Star Wars printed image taped on to the box.  It worked just like a pull string pinata and they loved it.

Missionary Cake

Happy Birthday Elder Holtz!

I used a 9x13" cake pan covered the cake with a thin layer of frosting then covered with fondant ... easy to work with and tastes pretty good.

Wedding Cake for the Hughes

I made this cake for Lori (Keller) Hughes and Gerald Hughes wedding.  3 tiered cake. Bottom and top are Devil's food chocolate cake with cherry pie filling and the middle tier is white cake with orange flavored buttercream.  All covered in fondant and decorated with pink roses.  This took about 3 days to complete.  On the 3rd day I stood back and I saw everything that I had made, and, behold, it was very good. And on the 4th day... I rested :-)
