Graduation Cake

     This is my first graduation Cake I have ever made!  I think it turned out well even though I didn't have the colors I wanted to use.  Needless to say, the graduating senior was very happy with it and that's what counts the most!  I want to thank my friend for trusting me to do this big job for her oldest daughter's important day!  Congratulations, sweetie! 

Holiday Cookies

I just finished frosting my holiday cookies.  I have just started decorating cookies fancy, so most of them are not that great yet. 

I even tried my hand at roses, I made only one that turned out half way decent.  It was fun trying and i know that the more I practice, the better I get and one day I will be just as terrific as my sister is at making the roses.

Catching up...

I've done a lot of baking since the first post.  Now it's time to catch everyone up.  Thanks for looking and reading, have a blessed day!

My first New York Style Cheese Cake.  It was a big hit Wednesday night at church.  I do have a confession to make about this one.  I am not a big fan of cream cheese, and I didn't want to try it.  Seeing how much my daughter loved the cake, I broke down and tried a little piece.  I was hooked!  Yummy!

This cake was fairly easy!  Instead of using a whole bunch of different candy to make up his special features I used melted chocolate instead.  I did add some fire to him too!



This was my birthday cake.  The sand was from colored sugar, the ball half of a cake pop and the palm trees (which were suppose to stand up on the cake) to the surfboards were chocolate.

These were some filled cupcakes.  I think next time I will use a different type of filling.  The filling I used here seemed to melt into the cupcakes even though they were cold.



My very first truffles.  Let me tell you these things are so addictive!  I'm not sure how many of them made it to the church that night!  Between me, three other girls and a boy in the same car as these little things; your guess is as good as mine...lol.

We are all caught up now.  Thanks for looking and reading.  Please feel free to make comments or suggestions for me to better improve my confections.

Hello
