Martha The Cake Lady

I have decided to change my blog into more of an actual blog.  So I am going to tell you about what I am working on today.  I am baking 3 cakes today to decorate for tomorrow and Saturday.

One of them is for a friend’s 5 year old.  it is going to be a western theme.  I just colored the fondant for the bottom - denim blue. I am about to start a second batch of fondant for that cake and my daughters’ cakes. Gonna go microwave it.

I decided to take pictures of the fondant process, I will post them when we get back from vacation!

Wow!  I haven’t updated my website in a long time.   Since I no longer have a commercial kitchen I have been maintaining my gallery on a Facebook fan page.  Click here to go to my Facebook fan page. I will try to update the gallery here soon though since i know many of my loyals can’t access from work (Thanks Mom!  Love you!  :D  )

Cookies made for a surgery center’s staff.

Everything relating to surgery- scalpel, syringe, hospital gown, pain pill, and a band-aid.

A beach bag filled with everything you need for a day on the sand.  Or maybe a bag filled with a traveler’s souvenirs for a birthday.  Or a student’s tote with overflowing books for a graduation party.  This cake has so many unique and fun possibilities.

Congratulations go out to Breanne Schaap who just graduated from Pepperdine.

This cake celebrates her graduation and was designed to match her invitations.

Everything is edible even the tassel.

Breanne has a beautiful photo-journalistic style that is very artistic and thoroughly enjoyable.

Visit her site or her blog.

For a love around the World theme for Michele’s bridal shower, I made a flat map of the Eastern Hemisphere and marked the places they have visited with miniature flags. Notice the “coming soon” flag to show their honeymoon destination.

Congratulations go out to Katy Rominger, who recently received the award for Woman of the Year from Tulare County Panhellenic.

With this cake I tried to incorporate all the emblems of Katy’s sorority, Kappa Alpha Theta.

Their pin design, a kite, with its twin stars and Greek letters is on to. The edges are adorned with royal icing pansies, their flower.

A glamorous day needs a fabulous cake!

This would be the perfect cake for a sweet sixteen or sexy 60, or anywhere in between!

The colors could be adjusted to fit your color scheme.

I can even make the shoe match a favorite shoe from your closet!

Crafted to look like a giant post-it note, this cake brings greetings and cheer to anyone who likes or uses these cheery little note pads!

Fabulous idea for Secretaries day also.

This was a fun cake to make!

The party was at a fun restaurant in Tulare, CA called Aero Dogs. It was built in the fuselage of a T-29 airplane.

I hope the twin boys it was made for loved it as much as I did!
