Popcorn Invites to make the whole party theme

Okay I just have to post this.   After posting my popcorn bucket below I was going through my list of blogs I follow and came across Lorrinda's new post.   Lorrinda is a fellow scrapbook sister with Close to my Heart and she posted these great Popcorn Invites .   How cute would these be with the whole movie night birthday party.    Lorrinda also makes cakes and I know she could whip up one of these cakes to make the whole package for her customers as well.  

Movie Night

What's better then a nice bowl of popcorn with a movie......what if you have a sweet tooth, well then my bowl of popcorn is what you need.   Dig into this bowl of popcorn and you will find cake, icing and marshmallows.....yummy!!

This makes a fun cake for a night in watching movies or a movie themed birhtday party.

6.  Mix jam with some water so it's a little runny and put chocolate balls into the jam mixture.  Once they are covered spoon onto cake and pour remaining jam over them.

Have fun!!

Ariel Birthday Cake

This was another fun cake to make. The birthday girl is turning 4 and loves Ariel. I used a Ariel Barbie for Ariel for 2 reason's. First what kid doesn't love getting an extra toy on their cake, second copy right laws won't allow me to mold a copy right figure and sell it on a cake. While this cake is for a special princess aka my niece, therefore is not being sold. I still didn't want to put a cake in my gallery that I can not sell. So I decided to use the doll on this cake so that I can showcase a true example of what I can offer customers. Plus lets admit it, it's a lot less work on my end to use a toy ;)

I covered her legs in fondant and made imprints to turn her into a mermaid for the cake.   All other fondant pieces are hand molded for the cake.  

Enchanted Easter

A fun Easter egg hunt in the forest.   This is the cake I made for our family Easter dinner tomorrow night.    It's a vanillia strawberry cake covered in chocolate fondant.   Everything is hand molded except for the Easter eggs, they are chocolate mini eggs.
