Minecraft TNT Cake

Every time I make mosaic cakes like this one, I am having pixilated dreams, or rather, nightmares.  It is not very complicated process to decorate such a cake, but it is really tedious and time-consuming thing. Sure, it would be… Continue reading →

Minecraft Pig Cake

This was my son’s birthday cake this year; he is into Minecraft nowadays. The cake seems pretty simple, isn’t? Well, it is not. The difficulty is to be able to attach all these tiny squares to the cake and meet… Continue reading →

Two Peas in a Pod Cake

Recently I had a rare opportunity of making a cake for a twin-baby shower. Not only I had a pleasure of baking and decorating the cake for the event, but I was also invited to the party. Who would have… Continue reading →

Alduin the World Eater Dragon Cake

The World Eater is now facing danger to be eaten! When we asked our son to make a wish-list for his upcoming birthday, the only thing he wrote there was to have an Alduin cake for his birthday party. Under… Continue reading →

Loose Stealth Elf Skylander Cake

I had so much fun making this cake. As well as Pokemon, the Skylander theme gives numerous possibilities to a cake designer. And as I’ve heard, there are more characters on their way. This pugnacious girl is made of gum… Continue reading →

Valentine’s Day Roses and Pearls Cake

I wish everyone the most romantic Valentine’s Day! This heart-shaped cake was a Valentine’s Day surprise from a loving mother to her son and daughter-in-law (quite a nice gesture on her behalf, if you ask me). There’s a ton of… Continue reading →

Santa and Chimney Tutorial

With the big holidays upon us, I decided to offer a seasonal tutorial. I tried my best to make it thorough and well-illustrated. There are numerous photos (over 60) of every step from the roof and chimney construction to the… Continue reading →

Thomas the Tank Engine Cake

It would have been easier for me to shape the cake as Thomas and be done with it at once, but the parents declined the idea since they were afraid that little Alex could refuse to cut the cake (he… Continue reading →

Backyardigans Cake

This cake is one of my most recent creations, for an adorable little kid who obviously likes the Backyardigans TV series. The name of the birthday boy is five letters long, the exact number of characters, so I thought it… Continue reading →

Gift Box and Dog Cake

The cake was a present to my best friend’s daughter who is a big canine lover. Since it’s was a gift I decided to make the cake literary looking like one – a gift box filled with the birthday girl’s… Continue reading →

SpongeBob Cake – Camping Episode – Sea Bear Attack

My dear son is turning 9 today. He is still faithful to old SpongeBob. This year the cake is a scene from his favourite episode (and not just his, I have to admit I love this one too). Tim actually… Continue reading →

Pokemon Ball Cake

I have to admit I’ve known very little about Pokemon until recently. My own kiddo has no interest in this theme, so I had to rely on the internet sources to educate myself. Now I know at least a couple… Continue reading →

Spongebob and Home Sweet Pineapple Cake

I was supposed to post the next daring bakers’ challenge, but … it didn’t happen, at least not yet. Today is my dear boy’s 8-year birthday. And this is his birthday cake. Tim’s old love for Spongebob never rusts. New… Continue reading →

Skiing Bear Cake

I was asked to make “something with snowflakes and red skis” for a little boy’s 2nd birthday celebration. His early affection to skiing doesn’t come as a surprise since the kid lives in Whistler. The cake was chocolate filled with… Continue reading →

Frog in a Pond Cake

It’s been awhile since I posted any decorated cakes that I make. So, I decided to share some cake photos with you. This is one of my recent creations. The baby’s favorite toy is a frog and it determined the… Continue reading →

A Fighter Jet in the Sky Cake

I can’t believe my little baby has just turned seven! I guess he is not a baby anymore… It seems like he was two yesterday. We’ve been busy lately with all the planning and celebrating (that’s why I’m not always… Continue reading →

Hippo Cake

This is my attempt to recreate a girl’s favorite toy in a cake form for her 3rd birthday. I don’t exactly know why this creature turned out looking so sad. Maybe the fact that I was making it at 2AM… Continue reading →

Homemade Fondant

I promised to post the fondant recipe I used for my cake-decorating projects quite a while ago. Well, I guess it’s better late than never. If you’ve ever sampled a store-bought, ready-to-roll fondant (I’m speaking about the most readily available… Continue reading →
