the big 4-0.

For my friend, Dan's, 4oth birthday. It was Steph's idea.
Had some slight support malfunctions with the lid. Luckily, we got a photo before it collapsed.
The lid, seat and rug are sugar cookie. The rest is cake with marshmallow fondant.


Almond and chocolate cake. Buttercream filling, marshmallow and chocolate fondant.

Kudos

"Oh my gosh. Thank you so much for the totally KILLER cake! I couldn't have come up with something more beautiful (or delicious!). ~Rachel

"This cake not only looked good...it tasted GREAT! You did an awesome job, Carrie! Thanks again!" ~Jen

"These were, without question, the funniest cakes I have ever seen. They COMPLETELY rocked. Better yet, to describe their flavor I can only say this: The chocolate cake was literally a culinary orgasm. The carrot cake was a religious experience. Now, I should tell you that, at one point, I was actually eating a piece of BOTH of them AT THE SAME TIME -- my first official "two-fisted" cake experience. Thus, these cakes have officially produced my first ever simultaneous culinary/sexual/religious experience. Yeah. They were THAT good. I would almost be willing to become a Republican if it meant I could have cake like this every day....

PS: The village people, red meets blue, Dem meets Rep, "marriage eqality 2010" cake was my favorite. The chcolate one we actually finished off for breakfast this morning, and the "Return to the Right 2013" was ousted from our house, and is currently making a group of retiree church volunteers VERY happy. Thanks again!" ~Nichole

Pinkalicious!

It's strawberry cake to complete the Pinkalicious theme.
Cherries and cupcake cups are marshmallow fondant. The rest is buttercream and nonpariels.

"The only thing I can take credit for is finding the most awesome cake baker ever!!! I asked for a cupcake cake in shades of pink because Emma loves Pinkalicious (the book). (Carrie) took that and went so far above and beyond by making this cupcake tower with cupcakes that look EXACTLY like the cupcakes in the book! Emma loved it, but I don't think it is possible for her to love it as much as I did!!:)" ~Amy
