Mustang Saleen

This was a fun request that involved alot of carving and lots of attention to detail. The client wanted a black Mustang Saleen with green pinstripes. I got a call from them after they got the cake to let me know how happy they were with the final outcome! I think we were all happy!

Luau themed cake

This was a cake request that someone had found on the internet. It was asked of me to replicate this cake for a 4 year old's birthday party. The cake was all chocolate-chocolate chip with the ganache filling covered in fondant.

The hungry caterpillar

This order was unique in the fact that it was all cupcakes. Cupcakes were Vanilla bean and chocolate chocolate chip.

Dragon Cake

This was a cake request for a 4year old's birthday. He loved the movie "How to Train your Dragon", so it was requested that I make a dragon cake. This is the dragon "Toothless the Night Fury Dragon".
It was a chocolate-chocolate chip cake with chocolate ganache filling and chocolate buttercream covered in black fondant.

Crawfish Boil Cake

This was the VERY FIRST cake I had attempted. I worked on this together with a friend, and I think it's safe to say that it was a hit! This cake feed 200 people easy. I will be re-creating this one for my cake competition in October. It wasn't bad for the first cake ever, but I think I've come a long way since! I will post pictures of the new one, once complete!

Range Rover & LA Lakers

This is an early creation by me done in 2009. The lady that wanted this cake wanted LA Lakers along with a replica of this specific black Range Rover. Let me tell you, this was the FIRST time I ever attempted a car. I think it turned out good for my first time ever carving and shaping a car. But it was a lot of work. The LA Lakers logo is all butter cream free handed. no stencil or print from a computer.
