My grandma turned 90 years old and we did a party for her. My cousin had a stand that she thought would look pretty, so I decided to do a square tiered cake to put on the stand. The more I thought about it, I decided to try using fondant. I did a 6 inch, 8 inch, 10 inch, and 12 inch cake. Each cake had 2 layers with buttercream frosting in between. I covered each layer with fondant and then put ribbon around the base. My cousin put the flowers on top of each layer after we got it to the church for the party. The top, next to the bottom, and bottom cakes were all regular pound cake. The second cake down was a chocolate pound cake (my favorite).
In Kindergarten, the letters Q and U got married. They had a reception in their classroom to celebrate the union. This was a simple little wedding cake I made for the kids to enjoy.
I was also asked this week to make a cake for a friend's surprise 30th birthday party. My friend's wife and I looked at some websites and she really liked this style. We used red, black, and white because it was close to Valentine's but also because my friend graduated from the University of Utah and those are their colors. The bottom and top layers were chocolate pound cake and the middle layer was plain pound cake.
My first wedding cake. I did Heather Mayo's cake. I used the basketweave around each--which I loved. I believe 1 layer was pound cake, 1 was red velvet, and 1 was chocolate pound cake. I used good old buttercream frosting on them. The flowers were provided by the florist.
