1950's Birthday Cookies

Happy "60th" Birthday Ron!
 
The theme for the cookies was the 50's.  I think I could've made dozens of different cookies for the 50's, such a fun decade.  The cookies for this platter included: mini cookies with checkered floors and 60 on them, records, fuzzy dice, and regular size cookies with a 1957 Bel Air, Jukebox, Diner, Roller Skates, Shoe, Glasses, Shake, Elvis, 1950's Music, Prices in 1952, and of course Happy Birthday to Ron.  I loved the way the Elvis cookies turned out.  I wish I had a Kopykake projector and it would've made it easier, but I like a challenge.  That hopefully will be my next purchase, since I have awful handwriting and the Kopykake projector would come in really handy.
 
I realized when making these cookies that I say Jukebox wrong.  I say Jutebox, I always thought it was pronounced that way.  How many people out there pronounce "Jukebox" Jutebox?
 
On to the pictures of the cookies.
 



 
Thank You Julie!

Red Velvet Cake with the Original Icing

I meant to post this last week, but I have been super busy lately.  The cake is a red velvet cake with the original butter cream icing made with flour and milk.


Thank You Dan!
I hope you enjoyed the cake since you are the red velvet with cream cheese fan.

Purple & Silver Dots Wedding Cake


In the year that I have been making cakes, I have never done a three tiered cake.  I think it was more nerves on my part more than anything.  I was asked to do a three tiered wedding cake that a couple found on theknot.com and came from one of the best bakeries in Missouri "McArthur's Bakery".  The couple wanted ivory buttercream on the cake and purple and silver dots( I used royal icing for the dots on the cake).  The bottom  and top tier was red velvet with cream cheese layers and the middle tier was white wedding cake with buttercream. 



Well I think I'm over my fear of making three tiered cakes.  I was very happy with the cake.

Congratulations to Laura and her new hubby!
