I don’t know why it always seems like such a great idea in the moment to start a cake like this at midnight after being out late having fun. But here we are… 😆

It makes total sense when you’re planning to go out and enjoy your evening, until you actually walk into the kitchen, look at the clock, and realize all the work waiting for you and it’s already midnight 😫

Anyways, Deklan got his cake on time, I love how it turned out, but I really have to stop doing this to myself 🤦🏾‍♀️🫣😆

A huge thank you to Pokie with Pokie Stewart Cakes for supplying some of the wonderful accents for this cake! This would not be possible without your help, and I appreciate you so much. No competition, just pure community and bakers lifting each other up 🙌🏿

DAY 7 / 30 DAYS OF CAKE 🥩🔥

Tell me you did a double take 😜

Every single detail you see here is handcrafted and edible, from the flame-grilled char to the glossy juices and the carved knife.

Is it cake, or are we firing up the grill?

Almost let the day get away from me 🤦🏾‍♀️
Day 6 of 30 Days of Cake is too fun not to share! When the bride and groom asked to include their fur baby, we had to do it in style. Hand sculpted sugar replica sneaking a little taste of the textured buttercream before the reception even started. Honestly, can you blame him? 🐶🎂

The ultimate catch for Reece’s birthday! 🐟

Creating this sculpted catfish cake was so much fun, especially bringing out the texture, the custom airbrushed color, and that fresh-out-of-the-water gloss. Inside, it is classic red velvet from head to tail.

Happy Birthday, Reece! Hope your day was just as unforgettable as the cake. 🎣🎈

Day 5 of 30 Days of Cake! 🎨🦔

Turning cake into a literal work of art for Evan’s 10th birthday! This canvas easel design was such a blast to create, complete with a colorful watercolor hedgehog, sculpted paint tubes, vibrant paint splatters, and fondant brushes ready to paint the day away.

Every detail, from the wooden palette to the tiny brush jar, brought this little studio scene to life. It’s days like this where baking and painting blend together in the best way possible.

Which detail is your favorite, the squeezed paint tube or the watercolor hedgehog?

Day 4 of 30 Days of Cakes 🎂✨

Today is an extra special spotlight because it’s my little bestie Reece’s birthday! 🎉🥳 I’ve had the absolute joy of making his birthday cakes for years now, and every single time, he challenges me with the most outrageous, over the top ideas. Somehow, we always pull off the magic!

Kids usually start phasing out big birthday cakes as they get older, but I have a feeling that won’t be happening here, because these sculpted pieces are truly the highlight of his day. 🥹❤️

Choosing just three was so tough, but here are my personal top three favorites I’ve created for him:

🦌 The Massive 3D Sculpted Deer, complete with giant chocolate antlers!

🦃 The Hyper-Realistic Wild Turkey, detailed with complex hand-painted body texture, a bold red wattle, and that vibrant blue head!

⚾ The Custom Baseball Glove, his mom brought over his real customized mitt so I could recreate an exact, edible duplicate topper right next to the original!

And the best part about these wild, ultra-realistic sculpts? Reece is an absolute red velvet fan, so slicing into every single one reveals gorgeous red velvet cake inside! ❤️🍰

Happy birthday, Reece! I can’t wait to see what wild idea you throw at me next year. 🎈✨

Swipe through to see the deer, the turkey details, and the side by side glove comparison! Which one is your favorite? 👇🏿👀

Welcome to Day 3 of 30 Days of Cake, and today is all about the art of the sculpt.

Capturing the subtle anatomy of a horse takes patience, from getting the gentle curve of the cheekbones and the soft structure of the muzzle just right, to layering on the delicate shading and textures in the coat and forelock. Adding those glossy, lifelike eyes truly brings a piece like this to life right before your eyes. Sitting on a lush, mossy green base, this beauty was as thrilling to construct as it was to finish.

Sculpted pieces always push creativity and structural engineering to another level, and this majestic design remains a total favorite.

Which detail catches your eye first, the soft airbrushed shading or the textured forelock?

30 Days of Cake: Day 2 🏰

I couldn't pick just one favorite castle cake, so I’m sharing a few that have my heart!

To me, a castle isn't just a fairy tale, it’s a mindset. A woman’s true strength is her sanctuary, and we don't have to wait for anyone else to build our dreams. Today’s castle cakes celebrate that incredible inner power, reminding us that we can build, create, and become the queens of our own CASTLES.

Never underestimate the empire you can build when you recognize your own worth. 😉

Celebrating the queens and princesses today! 😊👑

30 DAYS OF CAKE | DAY 1 🎂
It’s officially my birthday month, so naturally… I decided there should be CAKE involved! 😂🎂♎️✨

For the next 30 days, I’m celebrating my birthday month by celebrating something I’ve spent years creating, CAKE! 🥂🎂
I’m digging deep into the archives and bringing out celebratory cakes I’ve made over the years. Some favorites, some forgotten gems, and some that deserve their moment all over again. ✨
I’ll be sharing one, or maybe two 👀, cakes a day for the next 30 days.
Basically… I’m opening the cake vault. 😂🔓🎂
30 days. 30+ cakes. A whole lot of sweet memories. 💕✨

What better way to kick off Day 1 than with a cake that was customized down to the tiniest detail. 👀🎂
This one was made for a good friend’s husband, and EVERYTHING was hand sculpted by me and completely edible (except the glass)
🥃 Bourbon
🏇 Keeneland
🏈 Seahawks
🚬 Ci**rs
🍽️ Merrick Inn
🖊️ Even the pen from his business!
Yes… even the ci**rs are edible.
And yes… THE PEN IS EDIBLE TOO! 😂🎂
I love creating cakes that actually tell a story about the person they’re made for, incorporating the things they love and the little details that make the cake uniquely theirs. ❤️
And with Keeneland getting ready to open for the fall meet, this felt like the perfect cake to pull from the archives for Day 1! 🏇🍂
30 Days of Cake starts NOW! 🎂✨

Every custom cake tells a story, and this one had it all: favorite designer kicks, baseball mom life, a classic burger, and a little celebration cocktail.

From shaping the sole and the sides to rolling each lace by hand, I loved sculpting all of these tiny details and bringing the vision to life.

Tell me in the comments, if you had a cake designed around four of your favorite things, what would be on it?
