Gingerbread Girl Birthday Cake

Happy Birthday Jesus and Ellie Cupcakes

A sweet little girl wanted to share her class birthday party with Jesus this year, so I made cupcakes with these cute fondant toppers. Her mom texted after the party that the kids loved them, but were fighting over which character they were given...we should have thought about that with three-year-olds!

Happy Birthday Jesus!

When my friend Leah told me she was hosting a Happy Birthday Jesus Party and wanted a cake to celebrate, I was beyond excited.  I knew this had to be a special cake...it is celebrating the birth of our Savior! The children at the party were making tiny wooden nativity sets, so I decided to create a three-tier nativity cake.

Baby Shower Cupcakes

These may be the best tasting cupcakes ever!  My new friend Rachel hosted a breakfast baby shower at her home a couple of weeks ago and we decided to have banana nut cupcakes with cinnamon cream cheese frosting.  I made fondant toppers in sweet baby shapes.  As my nephew would say, DELICIOUS! 

Wednesday Word

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (NIV)

Bennett's First Birthday

I adore my nephews and niece.  Simply adore them.  I love my sister for bringing them into the world so I could love on them. One of the best things about this cake hobby of mine is making cakes for the people I love the most and I was so excited to make Bennett's first birthday cake.  He has loads of personality, so his cake needed to be bright and fun!  Out of all the three, he's the only one who really enjoyed his smash cake - I'm taking that as a compliment since I didn't make the other two!  Happy birthday dear BB!
