Iowa Hawkeyes Helmets & Football Cookies

We had a tailgating party theme at work today so I thought I would support my team!  Go Hawks.  Sugar cookies with buttercream frosting.


Rainbow layered cake

White cake flavor with tinted layers.  I was so excited to make this cake!  I really like how it turned out and the colors were so vibrant.  It was only one cake recipe, but I made each layer thinner than a normal cake so it wasn't too tall.

Spongebob Squarepants Birthday!!

This was for a birthday last weekend.  White cake with 3 layers of cake with frosting in between each.  The yellow part of spongebob is buttercream frosting, but his clothes were made of fondant.  This was a really fun cake to make.  The size is a half sheet cake and served 20 with leftovers:)

Batman

Another one of my nephews turned 5 a few months back.  I made these cookies for him.  They are sugar cookies with royal icing.  The icing sets up firmer than frosting you would have on just a normal cake.  It has a hint of almond though so very tasty!!

Spongebob squarepants!!

My nephew turned 2 a fews months back and the theme of the party was Spongebob.  The inside of the cake was tinted green and was vanilla flavored cake.  The frosting was almond buttercream frosting.  The sugar cookies had the same frosting.

Tonight I am making another Spongebob cake for a little boy's 3rd birthday.  This one is going to be a half-sheet rectangle shape.  I will post pictures of that one soon.

Elite Design Desserts

So I have been making cakes, cookies and desserts for years, but I am ready to expand to more than just making desserts for my own kids and have them available for everyone to order.  I am now available to make them on request.  I enjoy doing it so much and previously just did it for fun, but I realize now that everyone is looking for people to make that special cake for their kids birthday or party.  I have  some photos to share of some cakes and cookies that I have made before, but if you have an idea just let me know and we can make that special design for you.

The cake and cookies in this post was my daughter's 2nd birthday party. .  Yo Gabba Gabba was the theme.  If you have a child under 6 years old you are very familiar with this cartoon!!  I used almond frosting and the inside of the cake was white cake, but colored different shades of green.
