Pinkalicious Cupcakes - February 2011

Saturday, February 12, 2011:

Our other little cousin -- Kirsten -- also had her birthday in February. Kirsten currently loves this new series of books called Pinkalicious about a little girl who loves pink so much that she eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink.

Sara did a remarkable job recreating the cupcakes from the book! They look perfectly Pinkalicious, if I may say so myself:

Peace Sign Cake - January 2011

January 2011:

For our little cousin's birthday -- a wannabe hippie -- Sara created this awesome peace sign cake with the help of a lot of fondant.

 

As you can see, Allie was very pleased with the results!

Sand Castle Cake - August 2010

For a bridal shower this summer, Sara made a delicious and intricate sand castle cake creation! The "sand" is scrumptious crumbled Nilla Wafers.

Nikon Camera Cake - December 2010

What better way to celebrate the birthdays of two camera geeks than with an amazingly realistic camera cake? Sara made a delicious white vanilla cake topped with a highly realistic Nikon digital SLR sculpted out of Rice Krispies treats! 

Pumpkin Cupcakes - November 2010

On Thanksgiving this year, Sara's family was thankful for her delicious little "pumpkin" cupcakes -- the vanilla cake was even dyed orange to complete the authenticity!

Guinness Cake - September 2010

Friday, September 17, 2010:

One of Sara's sister's roommates is very Irish, and so Sara made a very appropriate cake for her 25th birthday! Cake itself made with actual Guinness beer, complete with a 3d beer glass "spilling" all over the Irish flag frosting.

For the occasion of Sara's niece's 2nd birthday party, a festive and funky "Under the Sea" Little Mermaid themed cake was in order. Delicious red velvet cake interior, blue icing waves on the outside with an "island" made of ground up Nilla Wafers.
