The past few weeks have been crazy cake making weeks! It’s so funny to go months without a cake and then have a ton all at once. Here are the projects that have kept me busy.
First up: Barbie! These Barbie cupcakes and smash cake were for my friends’ daughter’s birthday!
My wonderful husband made this buttercream transfer of Barbie. It took him two hours of painstaking work! Unfortunately, the picture I traced had one eye slightly bigger than the other, which was exaggerated when he traced it. We call her “Zombie Eyed Barbie.” Also, that’s a colar bone, not cleavage. Please don’t submit me to cake wrecks. 
This next cake was a collaboration between me, my husband, and my mother-in-law for my husband’s aunt and uncle’s 40th wedding anniversary. (Did you catch all that? There’s a quiz later.) We tried to make it similar to her wedding cake and colors on a much smaller scale. My mother-in-law made all those roses!
Up next, remember the Cubscakes? Someone wanted Cubs and Bulls cupcakes for a surprise birthday party!
This is a little smash cake I made for my friend’s daughter’s second birthday! She loves the PBS character Caillou and wanted his face on a cake. Easiest character ever!
Finally, I had a spiderman themed order for my friend Oliver’s THIRD birthday. That’s right, third. Notice the big TWO on top of the cake? I think the frosting was going to my head. I did fix it before the party, I just forgot to take a picture.
