A Wedding Cake

This cake I must say is my favorite. Even though I've made many cakes and a few Quinceanera cakes, this was the first wedding cake I was asked to do. I know it will be the first of many! It was a vanilla cake with bavarian cream and raspberry filling.

Quinceanera cakes...

The following cakes are ones that I've made for special occasions such as 15th Birthday Presentations (Quinceaneras).

Starting with my most recent cake I did for my niece this month (October 2010).

And another:

Baptism / Christening Cake

Here's a cake I did for my nephew's baptism (christening). In going with the theme of a Lil' Angel I created this cake for him.

Graduation Cake

I made this cake last year for my nieces's 8th grad Graduation party. I drew their faces on the cake to try something different. It was a big hit with the girls!

HULA GIRL

Here's a cake I made for a Hawaiian Themed party. I really had fun making this one and to date she's my favorite.

I created her using all fondant (except her hair which is chocolate). She's half chocolate and half vanilla with a strawberry shortcake filling, Mmmmm. Oh and I even added a surprise under the coconuts!

LA Dodgers Cake

Bananas Cake, originally uploaded by lpoli.

This is a cake I did for my Godson when he turned 15.

I incorporated things that he was and is a fan of, like his love for the LA Dodger's, Bananas in Pajamas (a cartoon for lil' tots) and football.

Candyland

A sweet cake for my sweet goddaughter.

This cake was fairly simple, all you need is a graham cracker house, mini reeses, hershey kisses, starbursts, gum drops, etc... add a little imagination and viola!

Guitar Cake

Guitar Cake, originally uploaded by lpoli.

I made this cake for my dear ol' Dad. I had to make him something special so I picked a guitar since he loves music. I didn't intend to make it life-size but it turned out better. All the guests at the party loved it.

I used rice crispy treats on this as well as cake, but it's all edible and yummy.

Mission San Carlos Boromeo

My daughter wanted to make her mission project out of cake so with my help she did it!
