I received a request for a Terraria cake - I thought, "terra-whaaaa?" Turns out, it's a video game! It's styled 2D, like old school Mario. Boy do I feel old... partly because Mario has come such a long way, and partly because I had never heard of Terraria! So I had to do a little research and this is what I came up with - with the help of Google, social media outlets, and a reference photo from the client of course! In addition, they asked for eyeball cake pops. This I could do with no need for research, but the research did help me decide the final look of these cake pops. Check out the giant eyeball cake pop as a cake topper that's four times the size of a regular cake pop! I had to use two pop sticks to make sure it had enough support. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Happy 10th Birthday Becca! It's a joy to make another cake for your birthday! Oh, my little Monkey! This little man turned one! I can't believe it's been a year now. My sister wanted a bubbles theme, so it was a chance to try out a new skill. I made gelatin bubbles that could be placed on top of the cake. The first batch I made had too much coloring in it, and didn't look enough like bubbles. I still ended up using them to top off the cupcakes that I made (even though I don't make cupcakes, but for my nephew, I'll do anything!) The second batch had just the right amount of coloring, but I forgot to oil the balloons before dipping them in the gelatin, so getting the balloon out was a little harder than the first round. Check out the video from the first round of bubbles below. It was the biggest mess I ever made in my kitchen, but the product that came out was just absolutely beautiful! Monkey ended up playing with the bubbles more than he did smashing his cake! Happy 2nd birthday to my niece Sierra! YiMa loves you!!! I was so happy to be able to do this cake for my friend's mom's 70th birthday. I love when someone takes time to celebrate themselves - well deserved! Happy Birthday Tita!
