My lovely sister was under the impression that I was too busy to make her birthday cake this year.
Boy, was she wrong.
Vanilla Sour Cream Cake filled with Salted Caramel, iced in Milk Chocolate ganache and crowned with Butter-Toasted Pecans.
I think she liked it.
This is Toni.
Toni is my brother-in-law's girlfriend.
They are in love.
Toni recently celebrated her birthday
with The Dame.
Part of the new line of celebration cakes offered by The Buttercreme Baker.
The Dame consists of Vanilla-Sour Cream Cake filled and enrobed in a rich, dark chocolate ganache. Simple, yet oh so delicious.
6" (serves 10-12) ~40.00
8" (serves 12-15) ~50.00
This cake was a special gift for my mom, grandmother and sister for Mother's Day. The 'shoebox' was a luscious Lemon cake filled with Lemon Curd and the 'trinket box' was a delicious Devil's Food cake filled with Milk Chocolate-Cherry Truffle. Both were iced in The Buttercreme Baker's signature Vanilla Buttercream.
Complete with its own SKU label and pearl bracelet.
I hope all of you Mothers had a wonderful Mother's Day!
Madelyn was a contestant in the Petite Miss category of the Miss Five County Fair pageant on Monday. She looked stunning in her ivory gown and antique earrings; sadly, the vintage rhinestone necklace I ordered from Etsy, didn't arrive in time. She must have asked me about that necklace every day for the past two weeks.
A little extra sparkle never hurt anyone but, her personality is radiant enough.
She didn't win but, she sure had a blast competing.
In the midst of pageant madness, I was also working on a cake for the Hampton Inn. They are celebrating International Housekeeping Week, September 13th-19th. So, I thought a cake replicating their Cloud Nine® bedding would be memorable.
I especially enjoyed sculpting the lapdesk and remote.
The do not disturb sign was a last minute addition. I'm glad I decided to use it though, it kind of ties it all together.
