Owl Themed Baby Shower

Owl themed baby shower for my husband's cousin, she loves bright colors, so I went a little "neon" instead of the traditional pastels.
The owl cake...I'm pretty darn proud of that little owl...complete with eyelashes if you look closely.

Horse Cake

I very rarely say this... this is my favorite cake I've done so far. The horse is actually a replica of one of the horses in the barn (Klair's horse...Carlos). I'm absolutely thrilled with how this cake turned out!













Thomas the Train


After several failed gumpaste Thomas the Train attempts...I finally settled on buying a toy...sigh... My version of Thomas made him look MAD! At least the cookies turned out...of course my husband ate 1/2 of the first batch...LOL... sigh.... at least I had frozen cookie dough so I could whip up a batch quickly!

Horse Show Cookies

Cookies I made for a pitch in at a horse show. We've got horse heads, hat, barn, hay, ribbon, trophy, show saddle pad, boots and a snaffle bit.





Horse and Girl Birthday Cake

Horse and Girl gumpaste characters, with paisley on the side.







Life is like a chair of bowlies....

or in this case a Mary Engelbrightish teapot for my mother in law. Another use for my Wonder pan (not just for Barbies anymore!). Gumpaste handle, spout and checkerboard stripe at the bottom...everything else is buttercream!






What can Brown do for you?


Super busy week and I needed a quick UPS truck cake for my brother in law. This is actually a sheet cake, I cut out the hood and used a cookie cutter with the leftovers to cut out the wheels and glue them together with buttercream. I just did a quick star tip frosting, and used gumpaste for the window.
My brother in law... he took a photo of the cake and sent it to his boss! :)
