30th Birthday Party!

This cake was so fun to create. The birthday boy's beverage of choice was Captain Morgan & Coke. So we surprised him with an edible version!

The bottle was carved from chocolate cake with Swiss Meringue buttercream filling flavored with Bailey's Irish Creme. The bottle was hand painted with food coloring to replicate a real bottle of Captain Morgan. The cake was a big hit at the surprise birthday party for my brother Rich!
Happy Birthday Rich!

Happy Retirement!

Here was a fun cake for a November retirement party! The money jar was made of chocolate cake with Swiss meringue buttercream filling. The retiree loved potato chips and was counting down the days to retirement. Those decorations (potato chips, pencil, and notepad) were all made of sugar paste and gold chocolate "money" topped it off.
