I’ve done a lousy job of keeping all of my projects posted here over the holidays. Here’s a sampling of what I’ve been up to! For quicker updates, make sure you “like” Pie In The Sky Cakes on Facebook!
Here’s a “Cute as a Button” cake for a baby shower. The pig is hand sculpted from gumpaste and the cake is fondant covered red velvet with cream cheese frosting. Yum! There were also some little lamb pops along with this order…you can see one at the bottom of the cake. This was was lots of fun to make–
This Dr. Seuss cake was for a very special first birthday party…
Another view of the hand painted details…
The Cat In The Hat cake pops for party favors…
I’ve read that no Southern baker is worth their salt until they’ve done at least one red velvet armadillo cake (a la Steel Magnolias). Now I guess I’m worth my “salt”, but I’m not so sure how I feel about that as lately salt has been getting cheaper and cheaper in the grocery store. I’d rather be worth my “butter”…
Couldn’t let Christmas go by without decorated sugar cookies!
The snowmen were my favorites…
And then one last batch of cookies over the holidays…these were to “beat the winter blahs” for a sweet family. I can’t think of anything more appropriate for just that than cupcakes and ice cream cones in January!
Here’s to 2011! May it be a year of blessings, happiness and joy.
And baked goods!!
