Expressions Birthday Cake
I wanted to make my sister a special cake for her birthday, so I decided to decorate the cake with all of the words that describe her. All of our family members added words to the list to create this cake.

Star Wars Birthday Cake
David wanted a cake that he could place his Star Wars guys on, so this is what we came up with.
18th Birthday Cake
For this cake, I combined a couple of different colored sprinkles I had and used that as the main decoration for the cake.
"Baby" Cakes for Baby Shower
Instead of doing cupcakes, I did "baby" cakes for my cousin's baby shower. I just baked cupcakes normally, took off the paper and decorated the whole cake and placed on a doily.
I used a larger swirl for the white frosting.

Gravestone 40th Birthday Cupcake Cake
A friend/fellow teacher turned 40 this week, so I made this gravestone cupcake cake to take into the teachers' lounge. I used my square cupcake pan to make the bottom of the cake (12 cupcakes) and round cupcakes for the rest.
Military Appreciation Cupcake Cake
For the 2nd Annual Military Appreciation Game at our high school, I made this cupcake cake in the design of the t-shirts the teams were selling. We gave these out as a dessert for the dinner that was being sold at the game too.

Comerica Park Birthday Cake
For David's 7th birthday, we followed a baseball theme. We went to the Tigers game this past weekend, had his friend birthday party at the Loons Game on Thursday, and he wanted a Comerica Park Cake for his birthday here.
This cake was pretty difficult and I would do some things differently if I did it again. The front stadium is made of Rice Krispie treats that are covered with fondant. I would have done all of the sides with Rice Krispies if I did it again. For the statues, I started with a toothpick. I pushed the body part on the toothpick, added fondant legs, head, baseball hat, and arms. Then I stuck the toothpick in the cake. I cut the top of the remaining toothpick off so you can't see the toothpick. I didn't make the car out by center field. We had a Happy Birthday car, so we put that on top. The Pepsi logo is just made from fondant and placed on a toothpick. The scoreboard is made from Rice Krispies; I wrote Happy 7th Birthday, David on the scoreboard. The lights are just fondant. (I was getting tired so I only did two of these.) The people in the stands are round sprinkles I got from Hobby Lobby.
It isn't the neatest cake in the world, but he was happy with it!
