Math Class Cake

This week in math class we were assigned to bring in some sort of food with an algebraic theme. Of course Ariana and i chose to bake a cake! This cake is moist white cake with chocolate fudge icing. We put bright green fondant on top of that and used bright pink icing to make the large graph on top as well as the ones on the sides. We also decorated the sides with smaller chocolate graphs and made buttercream swirls to add a little more decoration. The bottom border is also done with buttercream icing. Hope you enjoyed this cake!

Helen's Lacrosse Cake

We made this birthday cake for one of my lacrosse teammates. She said she wanted a lacrosse themed cake so we made two crossed lacrosse sticks on the top with decorative swirls. This cake is triple chocolate cake with fudge chocolate icing. We covered that with bright blue fondant and i rolled some green fondant into shapes of lacrosse sticks. All of the white is done with buttercream icing including the bottom border and the letters are cut from green fondant. We hope you like this cake!

Rowing Cake!

This cake was for me and my teammates for our end of the year crew party. This cake was bigger than most that we make, but it had to feed a lot of people. The cake is white cake and chocolate fudge filling, covered in blue fondant. The boat shell, riggers, and oars were made from gum paste. The gumpaste was pained emerald green and gold (the colors of Pocock Rowing Center) with food coloring. There is a lot of detail in this boat; seats, tracks, foot stretchers and riggers. The oars even have the design that the clubs real oars do. The Pocock club symbol is in each corner and was made from colored buttercream icing. The gold medals are made from caramelized sugar and the waves in the water are buttercream icing. Great job 2010 Novice Girls' Rowing!

Congratulations Clay!

We made this cake for one of our friends when he won ASB president! For this cake we incorporated our school colors (Blue and Green) and our school mascot, the puma. This cake was made with moist white cake and creamy chocolate icing. We covered that with bright green fondant and cut out a blue paw print. We also cut out little blue balloons for the sides with gold ribbons. The letters we cut from white fondant and we bordered the paw print and base with buttercream icing. Congrats Clay!

Happy Mothers' Day!

We made this cake for our mom on Mothers' Day. This cake was delicious, it had a chewy brownie bottom, then rich chocolate cake with a cookies and cream frosting filling in-between! It was iced with the same cookies and cream frosting and drizzled in milk chocolate. We put chocolate chips all along the sides and drizzled those with even more chocolate. Then we bordered and top and bottom in chocolate fudge icing and put Oreos on the top edge! Happy Mothers' Day Mom!

Happy April and May Birthdays!

Because of spring break we didn't have time to make both an April and May cake, so combined them! Our theme was rain drops and flowers. This cake was moist white cake and buttercream icing. We then covered it in sky blue fondant and cut out darker blue rain drops. We also added pink and red swirly flowers on the sides. Our border on the base was bright green buttercream icing made to look like grass. The letters were cut from blue fondant and put on a white cloud. We hope you enjoy this cake!

Happy Birthday Dad!

This cake was a little different from most of the others that we do because it didn't have any fondant. Unfortunately Ariana likes white cake better that chocolate cake, but this time because its my dad favorite, we make a delicious chocolate cake. It was covered in creamy chocolate fudge icing too. We did use some buttercream icing to add a shell border to the bottom of the cake, and add more detail. We also colored some of the buttercream icing blue and green to add little flowers for decoration! I won't tell you how many candles we ended up putting on there, but we had quite a blaze going :)
