Christian's Christening Cake

Oooh...nice alliteration with my title, eh? 

This weekend, Christian was baptized and his mom, my wonderful friend Kristie, ordered a cake to celebrate!  This is a chocolate cake with blue buttercream filling and chocolate cream cheese frosting.  I topped the cake with gum paste letters, blue buttercream and blue [white] chocolate crosses. 

Congratulations to you, Christian, and to your family!

Evan's Baptism

Chelsie called me last week hoping that I would be able to squeeze in a cake order for her son's baptism.  Luckily, I didn't have any cakes due this weekend and was happy to help her out.   She needed a cake to feed between 20-30 people, so we decided on a 10-inch, 2-layer cake.  It was tough to decide between chocolate and yellow cake, so I did one of both.  I torted the cakes and layered them yellow, chocolate, yellow, chocolate with blue vanilla buttercream in between. 

The cake is decorated with buttercream and gum paste/fondant accents.   I hope baby Evan had a beautiful ceremony.  Congratulations to the family!
