Belt Buckle & Bandana Print

Papa's 83rd birthday party needed a cake! Decided to go with a belt buckle and some bandana print.

Normally the initial would be centered in a belt buckle, but had to leave room for the other cake. A big ol M, Happy Birthday, some Longhorn silhouettes, and a piped rope border to complete the look.

Bandana/Paisley print topper. It turned out the decor for the party was bandanas too- I didn't even know.

All yellow cake, the topper with buttercream, the bottom with chocolate cream cheese icing and some edible silver spray.

Girly Farm Cake

A little piggy smash cake for Lilli's first birthday party. She has removable ears and bow, everything else is buttercream (to prevent any choking hazards).

Piggy cake with one of the dozen pig cookies ordered.

These little cuties were fun to make, a whole herd of piglets.

The official cake for the birthday girl, complete with pink barn!

MMF barn, animals, and flowers. Yellow cake, buttercream icing.

A little more detail of the rooster, grass, and flowers.

Happy Birthday Lilli!

Farming Cake

This birthday cake was for a 2 year old that can tell you the name of any piece of farm equipment, he loves it!

Cody was excited about his "John Deere tractor"

He insisted that the cows continue to "eat" his piece of cake after it was cut, so he could lick the icing off them.

Cody was more excited about the "dirt" than the loader. :)

It is the biggest compliment to see a child get excited about a cake I have made, it is so genuine! :)

First Birthday Cake, Farm

A pink, farm, first birthday cake for Ms. Madison. Yellow Cake with cream cheese icing.

A mini-corn field with a little family of chickens enjoying some kernels.

A pond, with lily pads, cattails and a little duck family. (Yes, the girl & baby ducks' heads shouldn't be green, technically...but they are prettier this way...)

A little piggy in his favorite muddy wallow.

I knew if I kept making everything a family there wouldn't be room for them all on the cake, so I just had to make the single animals extra cute... :)

 

Sweet little moo-cow, I love how he turned out... Obviously too big for the pink barn...but hey, I never said it was to scale.

Overall I was SO happy with this cake, and got a fantastic review from Madison's Mommy. :) Pleased to say also that everything on this cake is 100% edible, even the corn stalks, cattails, and cow's legs- they just contain noodle supports.

Ms. Madison's Smash Cake, tried to keep the fondant to a minimum so she could eat as much of the cake as possible without fear of any "small parts". Hope her Mommy posts pictures of her getting into this one. :)

Florida Farm Bureau Cake- Jefferson County

This was a charity cake for a fund-raiser auction for the Florida Farm Bureau.

Cell phone picture, but here are all the decorations almost at completion (hadn't finished the state and cow)

Though the logo has a Florida in orange, I decided to go with gold for the sunshine state.

Corn, Cotton, Livestock, Oranges, Peanuts, & Soybeans

It raised a respectable amount at the auction, and made me feel good to contribute!

Farm Animals and a Tornado

Cow, Pig, and Chicken cake pops.

Hayes' second birthday, his Mom themed the party with "Terrible Twos." Including a Cupcake-Cake Tornado

Cute little critter cake pops.

Papa's 80th Birthday Cake

My Grandfather turned 80 in 2010, we threw him a big shindig!

He has been a farmer all his life, they did cows....

Watermelons...
(These of course are gumballs 'pretending' to be watermelons)

And even hogs back in the day!

Altogether he is one amazing man! A great farmer and family man! We love Papa!

He blew out the candles with help from his littlest granddaughters!
