It is summer again, which means lots of free time and inspiration. I have several ideas for upcoming baking projects, lately all I've been baking are pies! They are my first love, and fresh fruit just longs to be made into them. The problem is I have no self control when it comes to pies, and must figure a way to get them out of my house before I eat the entire thing myself. Usually takes less than 24 hours for me to go through an entire pie by myself. Seriously.

Hello kitty birthday cake
This was for my niece. I think it's one of my favorites so far, but then I think I feel that way almost every time.

Kitty cake
The 2nd cake...
This was the second cake I made, well technically the third I used fondant on but the 2nd I was proud of. I was amazed that the cake looked just like pictures I used to draw with colored pencils. I think this was the one that made me fall in love with this particular medium. I started painting with food coloring and it was so fun to watch it gain depth.
Now that I know what I'm doing a little more I would do things differently with this one, but it still looks pretty to me.

How it started...
This was my FIRST cake. I spent days and days on it and had no idea what I was doing. I didn't even know how to frost a cake properly, but it turned out pretty cute for a first timer and since then I've been the "designated birthday cake baker" for my entire family.
SUCH is life I suppose! I love it...
