Christening Cake Part Deux

So this weekend I made a Christening cake for my neighbor's darling baby boy. It is based off a book style cake with a chalice on the right and his name on the left. Give it a look below:

Apparently I've offended at least half of my Connecticut audience by showing off my Boston Red Sox cake and Fenway park. For this I truly apologize! My husband is a Mets fan (I know, what was he thinking) but I have made an old Yankee Stadium cake for my brother-in-law. Unfortunately it was before digital photography! I'll get it scanned in and up on the site ASAP!

Princess Birthday Cake!

My niece loves princesses...all things princess...especially pink ones! For her birthday I used some small princess figurines that my sister-in-law gave me and a book pan to create a "fairy tale" princess cake.

Baby Quilt and Stroller

Here is a cake I just finished up this weekend for a baby shower. I matched the quilt to a design on the invitation to the shower and added a stroller (made of cake with crackers covered in frosting for the wheels) on top.

I'm talking baseball...

It's america's pastime...so I get asked alot if I can do baseball themed cakes. Living in CT it's typically Red Sox or Yankees (although my husband is sadly a Mets fan). I can do things as simple as a logo on a circular or sheet cake...or I've also done some stadiums. See Fenway below!

Babby Shower Cookies

Here is a cute cookie option that I've used for my own kids. These kiddo cookies are perfect for baby showers, christenings, "Hooray you're here" parties, etc.

I can add names, a question mark if you aren't sure of the name/sex, or whatever you want!

Happy ____ Birthday!

One idea that is growing rapidly in the world of Birthday parties is...the cupcake. You can still do a small cake to show a great design and hold the candles but cupcakes are a great hand out. Why you ask?

No cutting
Everyone gets the same size cupcake
Everyone gets the same amount of frosting (critical for Kiddos)
LOTs of decorating options

Here are some cupcakes I've done in the past for various birthday parties:

Christening Cake & Cookies

One very exciting day in the lives of or children was their christening. I made a cross cake for the party after this blessed event and cross cookies with our daugher's name on them as a favor to give out to all the guests.
