Cookie Cake - Odette's 2nd Birthday

My second attempt at a cookie cake was not as great as I'd hoped...I was too rushed.  I had been under the impression that it had taken me less time to decorate the cookie cake when I made Alegria's, but I was mistaken.  The overall effect was sloppier than Alegria's cake and I felt bad about that...poor Odette seems to get "second best" again.  :(  I'm so sorry, Odette!  I really didn't mean to do it that way!

To top it off, I attempted to incorporate the drawing into the "Happy Birthday" lettering and didn't notice until my sister pointed out, that the antenna on the butterfly made it look like it says, "Bir 'f' day."  Sheesh!

So sorry Odette!  Next time it will be better!  I promise!!!  :)

At least it was still SOOO delicious!!!

Cake - Birthday: Big Book of Boo-Boos, Doc McStuffins Medicine Bag

The theme for Alegria and Odette's combined birthday party this year was "Doc McStuffins," a fairly new Disney Junior show that the girls LOVE!  So the party was all about it!  For the cake I decided to go with a larger-than-life size replica of Doc's "Big Book of Boo-boos" (triple chocolate chunk cake for Alegria's sweet tooth, of course!), and a replica of Doc's medicine bag for Odette (white cake and rice crispy treat for the top).

Sooo good!!!

Cookie Cake - Alegria's 4th Birthday

I decided to start a new tradition.  Since the girls always get a huge "real" birthday cake on the day of their birthday parties and there are always leftovers and I don't want leftovers from even more cake from their actual birthdays, the perfect solution was: cookie cake!  And here's what I came up with:

I was quite happy with the end result!!!

MMM-MMM!!!
