Cake - Birthday: Square with Sprinkles

I was tired of trying to guess what kind of fancy cake to make for my husband's birthday, so instead I just asked him this year what he wanted.  To my delight, all he wanted was a simple white cake with white frosting and lots and lots of sprinkles.  Did I deliver?



You bet I did!!!


Cake - Halloween: Masquerade Ghost

My sister and her friends were hosting a Masquerade Ball Halloween Party and when she came to me for a cake, I immediately thought, "How great would it be to incorporate the "ghoulishness" of Halloween with the "elegance" of a Masquerade Ball?"  And that's when I came up with the picture in my mind for a Masquerade Ghost cake!!!

What do you think?






Next time I recreate this cake, I will definitely shape the round layers so that the ghost flows smoothly!  Again, another reason NOT to rush things...you forget those minor details that will make the cake even better!!!  :)

No problem, though...they all LOVED it and didn't notice it...they weren't looking at the cake from my ever-learning, critiquing standpoint.
