Why do cakes cost so much?

When you are ordering a cake for that special occassion, keep in mind the time that the cake decorator is going to put into your special cake. Most cakes take hours to decorate and then you have to consider the time the decorator takes to make the cakes and icing. Plus, don't forget about their costs for the ingredients, supplies, transportation materials like boxes, and clean-up.

Baptism


Lauren's First Communion

This was the first time I made this cake so let's just call it a "test" because I know that the next time I make it I 1) won't cross the letters, and 2) will get the gold to show up better. Working with gold isn't easy so I need to do my research. Overall it was still a beautiful cake.

Abby's Baptism Cake

I decorated this cake to resemble the invitation. There are polka-dots on the invitation, you just can't see them. I forgot how hard it is to frost the cross cake with all the odd angles. The next time I make this cake, I will use fondant or all stars.

Abby's Baptism Cake

We are having Abby's baptism this Saturday. Even though the movers are taking away all of our things tomorrow and we are moving into our new house on Thursday, I am NOT going to miss baking her baptism cake. I made my niece and nephew's baptism cakes as well as the cakes for Lauren and Caleb. I'm a little strong willed that way!

I'll post pictures next week.
