A tennis themed engagement cake, and my first time putting together my own cake topper with loads of help and design by She guided me to cut it and put it together myself 😘
Berry buttermilk with lemon cream cheese on the inside 😍
Fun fact: I have never played a sport in my life but have recently gotten into tennis so this was even more fun to make! 🎾

First time painting a gingham pattern on a cake! I was stressing about the best way to do it and finally settled on mixing some red coloring with a bit of Everclear and going for it 🫣 It worked out well for the cutest barnyard animal themed birthday party for the cutest 2 year old! Always love collabing with who gives me fun and creative ideas to work with 😍

My classic berry buttermilk with lemon cream cheese buttercream 😍 with some passion fruit macarons on top!

Chocolate chip cookies for my friend on her birthday 🥳 It’s been a while since I’ve made the classic CCCs but there really isn’t anything much better than a slightly warm gooey cookie in the middle of the week 😍

A simple red velvet golf cake for a classy golfer! Piping grass is just so satisfying… And I hope I get more golf cakes in the future because now I have so many cute foam golf ball cake toppers 😬

👋🏽! I’ve still been making cakes but also making my own blend of granola and I was feeling slightly stuck creatively so I took a bit of a break. This one was fun to make though, basketball themed red velvet! I used to cut out the letters on frosting sheets 😍

For my 37th birthday! I made a small cake just for funsies and decorated it whichever way I felt like 😍
A creme brûlée cake, recipe by It’s baked with a graham cracker crust that has some espresso powder in it, and filled with the most delicious custard 🥰

A cake dedicated to our trip to Italy! I was so surprised by how much cacti we saw there, swipe to see a little doodle of Cinqueterre where we had a lovely stay for a few days. Inside is chocolate chip buttermilk cake with chocolate buttercream 🥰

My first time attempting an entirely black and white cake! I also wanted to test a new recipe to potentially add to my menu so I tried a black velvet version of my chocolate cake and I love how it turned out—I used black cocoa powder usually reserved for Oreos so the cake is dark and deeply chocolatey, paired with a sweet vanilla buttercream and then I coated the entire cake with ganache. Definitely for a lover of chocolate or Oreos!
This was also my first time using this gorgeous stencil by and I stenciled royal icing on black fondant to get the clean look of it. I also fried up some rice paper for a very simple decor 😍

A hazelnut cake with chocolate frosting! Made this for my cousin ♥️ He loves to put together these action figures so we put one together to add to the cake, and I loved how we added in the birthday candle (swipe to see!)
The cake had a hint of cinnamon and there was something so addictive about it! Recipe from .sweet

A fun dinosaur cake for a 5 year old! He wanted a volcano, so I made one out of cake bits and also put a sprinkle surprise into the center of the cake 🥰 inside was Oreo cake with chocolate frosting 😋

Happy Pride Month! I made these mini rainbow macarons a while back and then I framed this photo and put it on our wall and it makes me so happy whenever I pass it!
♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

A subtle Taylor Swift cake! This was for my daughter’s bestie, she loves snakes and her favorite color is black; she requested gold sprinkles and disco balls 😏 inside was a vanilla cake with passion fruit curd spilling out the center of each layer 😍

When your aunt who is a realtor asks for a cake to give to her clients at the closing of a new house, you dig out the door mold you bought years ago and never used 😏 I used my edible dried flowers from to bring it together! Inside was vanilla cake with chocolate frosting and a layer of raspberry jam. This cake just cheered me up so much!

My sweet youngest turned 5 years old yesterday and requested a Halloween themed spooky birthday party and it was so fun putting together skeletons and pumpkins in May 🤪 Of course I requested to make a cake topper that will turn into a keepsake since he still sleeps next to the one she made him last year! She makes the perfect custom toppers (and so many other fun things too!)

Inside was an Oreo cake with chocolate frosting and the outside was covered with the dye free chocolate ganache from 😍 an upside down slime is much harder than at first glance but I made it work, and of course it needed some chocolate skulls 😆

A super cute chocolate Mandalorian cake for an avid Star Wars fan! Loved making this one, and I got to use a stencil I’ve had stashed away for years 😝

Happy Mother’s Day weekend! This is a poppy seed cake with passion fruit filling inside for a long time customer I adore. Her mom loves hydrangeas so I had this idea in my head to incorporate it into a Lambeth style that feels so feminine and pretty 💐

Strongly debated not posting this stained glass cake I made for fun because all I see are the imperfections but then decided to go ahead anyway because it’s my first attempt at it and I will improve! I wanted to make an ode to our Hawaii trip so I opted to put a plumeria on it and add the edge lines in the style of .bakes ! Inside was vanilla and lilikoi/passion fruit, because of course!

Classic vanilla chocolate cake with the main request being, lots of chocolate covered strawberries on top! This one was for my daughter’s sweet friend, Conner! 🥰

A super simple sunny themed cake (because it was going to get a sun cake topper added on at the venue)! Inside was funfetti, my currently most popular flavor 🥰

Cake top Tuesday! I made this mini cake super quick last week for my husband’s colleague on his birthday. I had seen use the stick sprinkles like candles and I had leftover orange frosting so I used sprinks like candles! It’s funny because I originally used all white sprinkles for a monochrome look but they all looked like lit ci******es so I pulled them off and made them colorful 🫣
Inside is chocolate vanilla and strawberry 🥳

Made these hummingbird cakes for book club 🌼It was on a book on South Carolina so I chose to put their state flower on them, the yellow jessamine! Have you guys tried hummingbird cake? It’s a banana cake with cinnamon, pineapples and pecans added in, they make for a moist flavorful cake, especially paired with a cream cheese frosting 🥰

Some pretty passion fruit and strawberry macarons! I hand painted these flowers on both sides for the order. Since my client chose tropical flavors, I opted to paint plumerias 🥰 🧡
Hope those of you in line with the eclipse have a fun experience!

I was asked to recreate someone’s favorite chocolate cake from Publix and I was nervous because there’s a Publix right down the street! But it turned out delicious and there’s definitely something to be said about knowing all the lovely high quality ingredients (like ) in this one 😋 inside is chocolate cake, a light cocoa buttercream, and the outside covered in ganache.
And sidenote: I’m not sure why I can make macarons with my eyes closed but I needed two shots at the mushroom and snail meringues 🫣 meringue just scares me!

Happy Easter weekend! Throwback to when I made this Easter cake top forward with passion fruit curd inside… I thought of it as I will be cooking some more today 😍😍 it’s that time of year for fresh, fruity spring flavors and florals!

A little masala chai cake with pecans inside and layered with a chai spiced buttercream! I don’t watch anime (specifically Jujutsu Kaisen) but the request was Gojo running in flowers, so I made Gojo out of wafer paper to give it more of an effect 😍

The cutest little black sesame cake bento cake in a lunch box! Best eaten with a little spoon, It makes the perfect mini gift 😍

And happy birthday to ! One thing I didn’t realize until I started posting on instagram more seriously was how wonderful and supportive the baking community here is. Everyone helps to boost or encourage each other and it’s just a lovely group of humans that I haven’t met in person but deeply appreciate. So I had to join the collab to celebrate her! And I chose to make a little bento cake because she makes so many beautiful ones on her feed! Click on the hashtag to check out all the other bakes 🥰

An oldie but a goodie! I made this cake a couple years ago and thought it fitting to reshare for all the stunning cherry blossoms in season right now. I always say fall is my favorite season but spring flowers are seriously winning me over at the moment (before the allergies start hitting!) this was for my friends sweet daughter and I absolutely loved putting it together. Inspo from !
Red velvet on the inside 😍

These were cakes I made for a 40th birthday, one of them chocolate bourbon cake with a salted caramel filling, the other one Oreo cake with vanilla cream. I photographed them before we left, with the intention of decorating the tops when we got to our destination across two states. But then we had a car accident on the way (we are all ok!) so swipe to see the cakes post being flipped and tossed 😅 much like I still feel now.
The last photo is me and my friends doctoring it up the best we could—a hunt for some rock candy to create a geode effect, and some gentle hands from and ❤️ I was surprised both cakes were still edible and even tasty! And happy birthday to my bro 😘

My second comic cake entirely out of buttercream this time! Inside is Oreo cake, which is quickly becoming more and more popular with my customers and I gotta admit, I love it too… little chunks of Oreo bits with fluffy vanilla cake is so satisfying 😍 This is for my cousin who turned 22 🥳
