Weddings and Babyshowers...oh my...

It's been a while since I posted some cake photos. This past weekend was a doozy, with back to back weddings (spaced by an hour), and back to back baby shower cakes on sunday (also spaced by an hour). Earlier last week I was sure that I would crash and burn this weekend, resulting in heartache and possibly legal action from crazy brides. Okay, so I assumed the worst...but, after it was over, and I had a day to unwind, I look back at this past weekend as being one of my best (result wise) ever! So, I thought I would post the cakes...so you could share in my happiness for a moment. :-D

First up, a wedding cake that was ordered back in March, and my first official tasting. I was really trying to make sure that this was as close to profesional as it could be.

The Daisy Cake



Next up was my neighbor's wedding cake. She is a pretty great lady, and has had a rough past five year...with her husband being killed in Iraq, and 8 months later her eldest daughter being shot and killed by an ex boyfriend. Then having to fly to Texas year after year, up until recently, to witness these continuation trials to put the guy away. I really wanted to make sure she had a pretty cake.

The Lilly Cake


She also ordered 48 cupcakes to go with this wedding cake...

                        


Next are the baby shower cakes. These were similar in that they were both for people expecting boys, but other than that, pretty different orders. I have decided that I like the baby figures with hair much better than the bald ones. The bald ones remind me of the scary weird bald guy from  "Beyond Thunderdome". Right....so anyway, the cakes!

I'm a Viking?



I have a bias for red headed babies!



and there you have it...weekend complete. HOORAY!

This next weekend will be similar, in that I do have another wedding cake on Friday, but Saturday is split between birthday cakes, and babyshower cakes. Could be another creative and wonderful weekend....could be a disaster! Stay tuned...lol.
