A Special 5th Anniversary




Celebrating your 5th Anniversary is a special time, but for Mike & Julie, it was extra special. Mike went out of his way to help make a dream come true for Julie, and the cake you see here - adorned with a handmade gumpaste arrangement of yellow & red roses and stephanotis - was a part of that wonderful evening - to find out more, click here.


White on White







The perfect setting for a wedding! For those who are familiar with Mt Baker (outside of Bellingham), and in particular, The Firs Chalet - this was the perfect spot for Tiffany & Brian's wedding. The bride looked beautiful and the backdrop of the mountains was stunning! The bride wished to have a cake that was both simple and elegant, adorned in nothing but white calla lilies. Each calla lily I made by hand out of gumpaste. Underneath the smooth fondant covering each tier, were three layers of a moist, delicate white cake with two layers of tayberry buttercream filling.


Oh, Baby!


Jonah is on his way and this cake was made to celebrate his upcoming arrival. Notice the baby carriage on top - I piped it out of royal icing, which dries hard, but is very fragile - a very delicate piece to make.
