Lemon Meringue Cake and Jello Cookies

~ I saw this recipe and thought I'd use it and make this bright and springy lemon meringue buttercream cake for Easter! It is a lemon meringue cake, filled with lemon swiss meringue buttercream and lemon curd filing, with some pieces of lemon meringues crunched up inside for some texture, then frosted in the lemon buttercream and topped with more meringues! Lots of lemony goodness!! We also had some yummy lime and strawberry jello cookies, for some color!

Shades of Dusk Blueberry Babycake

~inspired by my "dusky moods" cake, I loved the color theme that I decided to make one more cake in a similar color scheme, but richer darker colors, which was good timing since my daughter wanted a cake of her own. so I made this lemon cake with blueberry and blackberry compote in the center of the tiers surrounded by a mascarpone and blackberry frosting. It was super yummy!!!!

School House Baby Shower

This was the cutest idea for a baby shower that I have never though of before, but it was absolutely adorable!  The kitchen was styled like an old school house right down to the schedule: a blackboard done in the itinerary for a school day! I had such fun making this cake imagined by the host, Mary Clark of DMC Studios, http://photographybydmc.com (who also took the following pictures!)
Kudos to Mary for such a cute baby shower, I'm sure the mother to be loved every minute of it! Check her out for your upcoming photos, she's amazing!!!

Pretty Pink & White Baptism Cake

Sweet little Felicity turned 8 and was baptized and asked me if I would make her cake, so
I kept it simple and sweet and did whites and pale pinks, topped off with a sweet little girl
sitting on the side with a flower. Top tier is lemon cake with raspberry filling, bottom
tier is French vanilla cake with raspberry frosting~
