Winter One-derland {First Birthday Cake}

This cute snowman, made of rice cereal treats and marshmallow fondant, was created for a little girl's first birthday cake. We were asked to create a winter wonderland cake with a snowman that matched her birthday dress. So we made a small 2 tier pink cake that has white "snow" blanketing the tops of the tiers. Then we added snowflakes, snowballs, bead borders, and a penguin. We used soft colors of pink and pale blue and added sugar flakes to the white snow for a bit of sparkle.

Cupcake First Birthday

A couple of weekends ago we created 2 cakes that were very similar. We were requested to create a cake with a cupcake on top to match the baby's first birthday party decorations back in August. Then just about 2 weeks before we are set to make the cake a second request came in to create a cake with a cupcake on top, but this time they provided us with a picture for inspiration. Well the picture wasn't to much different from the cake we were already set to make. So we made 2 tiered cakes for the same day with a cupcakes on top for baby's first birthday. Here they are... you can choose your favorite.
