my spot

I'm not by any means a professional, but I'm making an attempt to have some fun and my idea of fun is making cakes and decorating them, or painting canvas. I found a great website that is full of ideas and now I've started to try to make stuff for my friends and family. This is my little corner of the internet to post some pics of what I've done so far and those sites full of ideas for future things to do

Firefighter

A friend of mine has a son that's a firefighter and asked if I would make him a firefighter themed cake. Originally she wanted a cake in the shape of a firetruck, but when I googled them, they were either incredibly detailed or very childish looking. We found one with the fire hydrant and hose and I added the boots and his helmet. Need the logo for the front of the helmet but otherwise all done! I noticed in the photo the cracking in the icing under the weight of the hydrant - quickly added more grass growing down the side of the cake. Fingers crossed it makes it until morning for the delivery!!

Hey Michele!

That's my cake!!

I just wanted to drop you a little note of thanks. You did a fantastic job on this cake. I was blown away when I saw it. My helmet and boots are bang-on, and the kids at the party really enjoyed eating the hose and hydrant. Not only did the cake look great, but tasted great aswell. Thank you very much... Great job!
