Fish Cake

Candi called me up and asked me if I would be able to make her a cake for her bosses birthday.  I didn't have any cakes scheduled so I said sure.  Candi said her boss was a fisher and that she was wondering if I could do a fish cake.  And she added that his favorite cake was German Chocolate cake.  Not one to back down from a challenge I said sure.  I had never made the coconut and pecan frosting from a German Chocolate cake before but figured I would be able to figure it out.  I think the filling turned out really good.  Then it was on to the fish.  I hope that I did the blue fish justice.  My favorite part was his eyes and mouth.

The example that I used:


What I ended up with:





Fellowship cake

My neighbor across the street Ann asked me if I could make her a cake for her Christmas fellowship meeting today.  This cake is as diabetic friendly as I can make one of my sweetest things.  I used a reduced sugar chocolate cake mix, sugar free pudding, and fresh fruit.  This cake was chocolate cake with fresh strawberries and strawberry crack filling.



Marissa Cake

One of Cameron's teachers is about to have a baby boy any minute.  So a few weeks ago the other teachers threw her a baby shower and I was lucky enough to make her cake. 





The top cake was chocolate cake with buttercream filling, the middle cake was yellow cake with fresh strawberries and strawberry crack (marshmallowy) filling, and the bottom cake was yellow cake with chocolate truffle filling.
