Sleeping baby and building blocks baptism cake

A two tier round vanilla cake with dulce de leche cream filling. The cake is covered in pink fondant stripes and polka dots with a sculpted gumpaste baby sleeping under a pink blanket. Each of the small building blocks is piped with a letter forming the name of the child being baptised in Queens NY.

Gold Leaf Fourtieth Birthday Cake

A delicious two tier white vanilla cake and chocolate genoise with alternating layers, and with Cannoli cream filling. I like the way these cakes look when you cut them with their multi-colored layers.

Light pink fondant covers the cake, which I then decorated with hand painted gold leaves and flowers, gold fondant beads circling each tier, plus a monogram I piped on top. The cake was delivered to a 40th birthday party in Warren NJ.

Wonder Woman Birthday Cake with Invisible Plane

Wonder Woman (Diana Prince) is my all time favorite super heroine. So I was delighted to bake this star shaped vanilla cake with chocolate cream filling for a 5th birthday party at the YMCA in Chinatown NY, as the birthday girl is also Wonder Woman fan.


I sculpted the figurine out of fondant and also built an invisible plane for her using isomalt! The finished cake included her Lasso of Truth, not shown in the photo.

Cake Decorating Class - Handbags

Earlier in the summer we held a cake decorating class to demonstrate how to make a handbag cake. It was a fun group and we had a great time.

We learned how to carve the cake into a handbag shape and then crumb coat the cake. Once the cake was slightly chilled we added a final coat of buttercream and then covered it with a piece of rolled fondant.

Finally each of the students chose whatever decoration they wanted to complete the bag design: fondant bows, cutouts, stripes, polka dots etc..

Special thanks to Lisa, Nancy and Cora for organizing the class.

Pink Bow Baby Shower Cake and Cupcake Tree

A red velvet cake with cream cheese filling, covered in ivory fondant and with a pink bow. Fondant cutouts of baby bottles and rattles decorate the cake. The cake sits on top of an acrylic display stand, where we placed matching cupcakes, topped with a baby bottle, rattle or pacifier fondant cutout.

Birthday Presents and Jungle Animals Cake

I made this two tier orange and blue cake for a birthday party at the Turtleback Zoo in West Orange NJ. Red velvet cake with cream cheese filling on the bottom tier, and yellow vanilla cake with dulce de leche cream filling on the top. The cake is covered in matching color fondant stripes, polka dots, with jungle animals (giraffe, lion and elephant) and gifts.

I also baked two dozen animal cookies as favors for the guests.

Beach Theme Retirement Cake for Police Captain

A Police Captain celebrating his retirement asked us to create a beach theme cake for his party. His Police vehicle is driven into the ocean, all his gear is discarded on the beach and he is relaxing in a hammock strung between two palm trees.

The beach is rum cake with orange chocolate cream and the sea is red velvet cake with Madagascar Vanilla bean filling. Delivered to Matawan NJ.
