Floral Cupcake Fantasy

We created these fun, vibrant cupcakes for Dan and Jasmin's intimate wedding held at King Fish restaurant in San Mateo. The mother of the bride, Doris, was kind enough to forward these beautiful photos to me. Here's what she had to say:

Thank you for helping my daughter and I create a unique cupcake tower with top cake for her wedding. Not only was it visually beautiful but amazingly delicious. The tower looked amazing at the venue (Kingfish restaurant) with it's festive and funky folk art.

Heat Wave!

I hope everyone is keeping cool during this heatwave! My car thermometer read 102 degrees today at 3 pm. My goodness...But, on the bright side, just looking at this cake we created gets me thinking about the beach and cooling off. My wonderful client, Marianne, helped me design this luau/beach theme cake. The sandbucket is banana cake with walnut praline filling; the beach & water are a deep dark chocolate cake filled with raspberry filling. The "sand" is brown sugar. Flip flops, shovel and flowers are all handsculpted from fondant.

Sherbet Colored Wedding Cake

This fun wedding cake was designed for my very good client, Arlette, who had her wedding this past June at the Berkeley City Club. The colors remind me of melted sherbet -- perfect for a summer wedding. Inside are alternating tiers of chocolate cake and lemon cake; outside is smooth fluffy buttercream frosting.
