Love doing Theme Cakes !!

Village Sweets created their first “Make-Up” cake…  woohoooo!  First the cake, a vanilla cake with a Dulce de Leche filling plus a whipped cream filling and I frosted the cake with a smooth Vanilla Butter Cream frosting and topped it all off with a Pretty Pink Fondant covering.  A quilted look with silver Dragées just made it gorgeous, some gum paste make up accessories and voilà this cake was ready to get eaten!

Cuckoo For Trains

Monday was “Train Cake” day.  Another theme cake for Village Sweets.  The plan was carefully thought out and all the little details were fashioned out of gum paste.  The cake flavor was chocolate and it was frosted with a vanilla buttercream.  We made the train in 3 cake pieces which were all covered with fondant.  We think it turned out pretty great for our first “Train Cake”.  (A little note, this cake was made with Splenda rather than the traditional white sugar). Thank you Caroline!

Village Sweets will soon be coming to YOUTUBE….Watch for us!!

Pretty in Pink

This cake was fashioned in  “3” and a “0” for a woman who is turning, you got it, 30!  tons of big roses in soft pink decorated both the numbers and a pennant banner was something different for the mention of the birthday girl.  Deep delicious and moist chocolate cake with butter-cream frosting, and just a few pearlesscent beads (edible) to add a little special detail to the cake.  We think,  so Pretty in Pink!  Bonne Fête Wilnie !!

‘A Metal Heads Dream Cake’

Another day of baking…This time a dream cake for a Metal Head.  Although the gum-paste fist should have dried for a longer period of time, the cake turned out awesome. This was a rush order and my daughter loved it!  Who wouldn’t want a fiery pit cake from hell?  Hmmmm

Delish Devil’s Food Cake Delight

Ummmm yummy!  If you are a Chocolate fanatic you will lovvvve a Delicious Old Fashioned Devil’s Food Cake.  The cake is a deep chocolate, using the finest cocoa powder.  It is a very moist cake and requires special handling when icing the layers.  A chocolate frosting fills two layers of the cake and a wonderful raspberry reduction cream filling is in the middle layer, Surprise!  Thank you for thinking of Village Sweets Bernie!  Enjoy  🙂

Under The Sea Goodness

Cute “Birthday” Cake or Theme Cake idea from  WILTON.   I just love the fish on top of the cake!   Ideas for decorating the cake can be endless.  I came up with some “Starfish” style swirls on the sides of the cake for a slight change, rather than just dots.  An under the sea theme party would make a great child’s birthday.

Cake is a vanilla and chocolate marble.  I will post a picture of a slice when I am ready to cut it!  I can’t wait.
