I have been a busy little pastry chef over the past month.. making lots of cakes and cupcakes!  Not all of which I managed to photograph…. but I did remember to photograph a few!

First off, we have a red velvet cake with “cream cheese” frosting (not really cream cheese obviously):

pink!

And the side-view:

mm frosting

Next we have a chocolate cake with chocolate filling and buttercream frosting with chocolate accents:

Huzzah for Eric!

And the side view:

squiggles

And a close up on one of the flowers:

yum chocolate flowers!

Next is a chocolate cake with raspberry filling, raspberry buttercream frosting, and chocolate covered raspberries:

rasberrriieees!

But it turned out, the cake  wasn’t for “Jen”!  Whoops!  It’s ok though.  I fixed it.  And it turns out that chocolate covered raspberries are AMAZING.  They practically liquify the moment you cover them with chocolate.  So good.  And the frosting actually has puréed raspberries in it.

I was on a squiggly kick...

Next up is chocolate cupcakes with raspberry filling and PB frosting… might sound weird but it was soooooo good!

match made in heaven

The peanut butter frosting was quite probably the best frosting I’ve ever made or tasted.

cupcakes are for cool people

And the last cake I have to share with you today is a 3 layer lemon pound cake with lemon frosting…

Thomas the Tank!

… for a two year old Thomas the Tank enthusiast!   I did a frozen buttercream transfer for this.  In other news, I’ve never taken a cake decorating class!

That’s all folks!
