Monkey Business






Baby Animals

 I love this cake! People give me the best ideas and its fun to watch them take form. I think my favourite part is the colours that are used... but the little animals are pretty cute too!

Dog Lover Birthday Cake

One of the great people that works at Moe's (my fur baby) doggy daycare was having a birthday so they asked me to make a cake with her 2 dogs incorporated in the cake. I hope I captured some of their features in these cartooned versions!

Apple Cupcakes

I got the recipe for these out of this month's Rachael Ray magazine. They are called 'Caramel Apple Cupcakes'. Eventhough I didn't add the caramel topping to these they were delicious! More of a muffin than a cupcake but so good! I used apples from my friends tree so the tartness of the apple was great with the sweet batter. Definately worth trying... I will post the recipe soon!!

Bubbles and Bows

I know i've said it before but I love it when I just get to do whatever and be creative. This is for Aniques birthday so her mom just wanted it to be fun and girlie.... hope you loved it!

Spiderman, Spiderman...

This took sooooo much food colouring to make the buttercream deep red and get the black accents dark enough, I definately discovered that it takes more colouring to get buttercream a dark colour than it does for fondant.
I also used a new cocoa for this chocolate cake recipe and it made the cake almost black.

Thomas the Train

I have decided that fondant rocks are my new favourite thing... they look so cool! I also really like making the trees so this cake was so much fun for me to make.

Barbie Princess

These were super fun and easy! The whole skirt is shaped cake covered in fodant icing (shown) or I can do it in buttercream.... whichever you prefer!
