Star birthday cake

Well I have to say this was such an amazing birthday for me this year in so many different ways. 1 would be my birthday cake. I wanted to think out side the box but still give a little bit of me. I designed this cake a few weeks ago. I know black who knew , but everything that I design looks so much better after it comes to life. My cake Boss Ileana Berrios and I got together the day of my birthday that was held at Bj's at the loop. She had spent a few days before and made my delicious chocolate and amaretto cream filling cake. She also had made the fondant in the different colors. I got to her house around 11:30am and got started on rolling out the fondant. It was like playing with play-do. But I could eat it. YUMMY! We had such a great time and I learned so much. Once I had cut out all the stars I started to place them onto the cake. Both Ileana and I would amazed on how beautiful the cake came to life. We were so proud of the work we had done together. I have to say it brought me so much joy. Now I know what it feels like when a Bride gets the cake of her dreams. The cake was such a big hit. We placed the cake at a table next to are table at BJ's and everyone that walked by love it and had to say how beautiful it was. So if anyone that reads this and would like a special cake made for them hit me up and we could me work something out. I hope you enjoy my blog:0)Yram

This is my 2nd attempt on making invitations. Of course I put a little more into this because it's my birthday but I know now that I do have the skills that I would need to make any and every invitation for a wedding, birthday, baby shower etc. You can also see my 1st attempt on invitations for my parents Anniversary which took place last June. I have enjoyed making each and everyone one of these invitations. I really hope you like my work and I look forward to bringing something very special to your event.

Birthday Cake

Here is my 1st birthday cake design brought to life by Ileana and Carlos. Wow what a treat this was to learn how to bring a design from paper to the real thing. Sometimes it's easy to look at something and say how beautiful it is and not realize how much time and effort goes in to making something so beautiful. This cake was for my friend Patricia,which I have known her for 17 years now. I wanted to do something very special for her on her birthday. She had a great birthday night planed at Blue Martini in Orlando. Myself,Ileana,and Carlos set up the cake at Blue Martini just before Patricia showed up with all of her friends. As we were setting up everyone who was around the table had to stop and say how beautiful it was. We got a chance to give out business cards and give credit to Ileana and Carlos , my very own" Cake Boss" here in Orlando. Just after setting up , Patricia showed up and loved it! I know she would. Not only was the cake beautiful but the taste was to die for! All in all it was a big success. Thank you to all at Blue Martini in Orlando for being so great to us.
