ABC Block Cake

My baby turned 1!  This cake was so fun to design, I've had it dreamed up for months.  The blocks are just styrofoam blocks I bought at the dollar store.  I thought about making them out of cake until I found the blocks for a dollar each.  We really didn't need that much cake anyway!!  Hope you like!

Purse, Bow and Polka Dots Cake

I think this is my FAVORITE cake I've done yet!! I love pink and green together, I love girly things, and I love it when cakes turn out exactly how I plan!  I made this for a sweet little girl turning 2 who loves purses.  

The purse is made out of rice krispy treats.  The cake is a 3 layer lemon cake with raspberry filling.  The handle and bow are made out of gum paste and the rest is decorated with fondant with royal icing curly cues and an edible pearl border .  The only thing I wish is that I had put a ribbon around the cake board!  I didn't have the right size ribbon and no time to run to the store.  Poor planning I guess, oh well!  Love it, love it, hope you love it too!!
