More Weddings



Another wedding cake for friends of ours done in a basketweave design.



This wedding cake was for my cousin. She designed the cake and I decorated the cake according to her drawing. The dark color that is used on the border was a deep, rich eggplant color. We served cannolis as well as a few smaller cakes on the side. The small cakes actually had layers of cheesecake between the cake layers. For those of you who like cheescake, you would have loved these!



Another wedding cake for a cousin. It was a busy week. I decorated the wedding and groom's cake. My hubby and kids were in the bridal party and I sang a solo in the wedding. Busy, busy, busy.......but oh, what great memories!





A wedding to remember!

It has been a few years, but I will never forget the wedding cake that traveled by boat. It was quite the adventure for my hubby and I. With cakes baked and all my decorating supplies packed, we traveled two and a half hours from our home in Michigan to Mackinaw City. We arrived at the Sheplers dock, loaded the cake onto the boat and traveled another 20 minutes to Mackinaw Island. Once we arrived on the island we loaded the cake, supplies and our luggage onto a horse drawn carriage and headed to Mission Point Resort. Yes, I said horse drawn carriage. No cars are allowed on the island, well except for emergency vehicles.

It was a beautiful setting for the wedding and reception. The bride requested a chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing. Her father made the beautiful board the cake was placed on. Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Fairbanks for letting me be apart of your special day!

Let's Celebrate Graduation Day

What an exciting time in a young adults life......graduating from high school or college. It has been a joy to designs cakes for graduates that bring out their interests and style. These are some I have designed in the past few years.

                                                               



The cake above and below were for twin sisters who were graduating from high school.
I loved how these cakes turned out!

Stocker's 40th Anniversary

In 2007, my husband was laid off from his job and was not able to find work in Michigan. We prayed and asked the Lord for direction, and He lead us to Georgia. We love Georgia and our new church, but there will always be a special place in our heart for our home church back in Michigan.

It was an honor to be able to fly to Michigan this summer to help with the anniversay celebration the church was planning for Pastor Joel and Donna. They are the senior pastor's at the church my family has attended for over 20 years. 

These are the pictures of the cake and desserts I did for the celebration. My goal was to try to make the cake as close to their wedding cake as possible. I was very pleased with the end result! Thank you CCC, for letting me be apart of this special day!









Where's my luggage???

This was a cake I designed for a pastor at our church. A group from our church traveled to Haiti to do some ministry work and poor PJ's luggage didn't arrive when he did. The team contacted me and asked if I could design a cake for his birthday that looked like a suitcase, in honor of the lost luggage. I think it was a birthday (and trip) PJ will never forget.

Jonny and Sommer's Wedding



 

 These pictures bring back such great memories. I was asked to make the wedding cake and desserts for Johnny and Sommers wedding. The wedding and reception were at Puritan Mill, downtown Atlanta.

<><>

Sommer had asked for her cake to be chocolate with chocolate buttercream icing. Johnny's cake was carrot cake with cream cheese icing. I incorporated chocolate twigs and gumpaste apples into the design of the cakes, to tie in with the table centerpieces.

 

  

After the dinner buffet, guests were pleastantly surprised by the dessert buffet. Some of the desserts we  prepared were chocolate covered oreos,

cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, cheesecake lollipops and russian teacakes.
