Fondant Birthday Cake for a Physicians Assistant

This was a fun cake to make. I used Buddy Valastro's chocolate cake recipe as well as the chocolate frosting recipe from his Cake Boss recipe book. It was good to try something different. His outstanding cakes have inspired me to make fun looking cakes. Visiting his bakery in Hoboken, NY was one of my favorite memories! I was hoping to see him, but he wasn't there and I got a picture with his sweet sister instead.

Holiday Cream Cheese Snowflake Cupcakes



Holiday cream cheese snowflake cupcakes. YUM! The snowflakes were made by piping warm white almond chocolate onto parchment paper and then allowed to dry. I love the Christmas feel with the Snowflakes on top of the cupcake!

Sour Patch Fondant Birthday Cake


Sour Patch Cake and Ice cream at Boondocks. I made my own cake board using layers of cardboard that were glued together. Green Foil under a layer of cellophane finished the board off. Easy Peasy!
