This is an 8", 4 layer Chocolate Raspberry Cake with Dark Chocolate Buttercream

Holiday

So I was looking for a picture for another reason, and came across these.  The one of the soccer ball, of course isn't holiday, but oh well...  The next are a Buche de Noel (which i will be making for this year) and a Haunted House Gingerbread house (hopefully i didn't already post it - or i will remove :-)).  Included the gingerbread house because, well, typically people make gingerbread houses at Christmas Time.  This was very fun to make and all edible!

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

Movie Star Cake

It has been a while since my last entry...  Although now posting, have been doing a bunch of cakes and amounts of chocolate dipped coconut macaroons -- includung 600 (!) for my sister's wedding.  The cake below was for today.  One of the managers of a local retail store is an extra in the up coming Staven Speilberg movie, Lincoln.  The film and stars are of fondant.  Otherwise, chocolate cake with dark chocolate buttercream.

The Roof Cake!

Ok, So here's the story...

Once upon a time there was an 89 year old man who lived out in the middle of Nowhere, VA.  He was a very fit 'ol chap -- having outlived 2 lovely wives.

Well, every fall he enjoys getting up onto the top of his roof and blowing the leaves out of the gutters with the leaf blower.

Well, this past fall, he was up on the roof blowing the leaves, and you'll never guess...  The LADDER FELL FROM THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.  yup.  So the 'ol chap was up on the roof with no one to help him.  Being so clever, he decided to make a lasso out of the extention cord.  He lassoed the ladder and was able to pull it up to the side of the house.  The 'ol chap got down safely!

So, this weekend as he and his family celebrate his 90th!!! Birthday, they thought this an appropriately themed cake.

Enjoy!

Fairy Cake!
