Birthday Cookie

This is a butterscotch and dark chocolate chip big cookie I made for a birthday party with white, chocolate, and red buttercream icing.  The chocolate is AMAZING even if I do say so myself!  I make and decorate the cookies fresh so they are not wrapped since they don't have to freeze as the cakes do. 

The cost for this cookie was:
Icing: $2.55
Cookie: $5.72
Plating: $1.05
Labor: $6.00 per hour x 2 = $12
Total: $21.32

Another Tractor Cake

Normally, I won't repost similar looking cakes, but I made some detail changes to my tractor when I made it for another little boy, so I broke my rule.  It is still a yellow cake with white, green, black, yellow, and orange buttercream icing.  I wrote the "Happy Birthday" message and the #3 differently on this cake, and I'm not sure which way I like better!  The cost for this cake was:
Icing: $2.55 x 1.5 batches = $3.65
Cake: $1.93
Wrapping: $4.88
Labor: $6 x 2.75 hours = $16.5
Total: $24.59

American Flag Cookie

I made this cookie for a Memorial Day BBQ.  It is a chocolate chip cookie with milk chocolate chips and decorated with blue, red, and white buttercream icing!  It was a huge hit!

Rapunzel Cupcakes

These are the cupcakes made to match the Rapunzel Tower.  They are yellow cake and decorated with buttercream icing in all the colors from the tower: purple, pink, orange, yellow, white, green, lavender, gold, brown, teal, and periwinkle. 

Moth Cake

This cake was made for my husband's work potluck and is a replica of the company logo.  It is a yellow cake decorated with purple, yellow, green, and pink buttercream icing.  The challenging part of this cake was trying to blend icing colors similar to a digital image of the logo.  Thus, there are two different shades of yellow-green, and yellow-pink which made a peachy/orange color.  I enjoy the challenge, so ti was a fun cake to make.

Mickey Mouse Club House Cakes

These cakes were made for two year old twin boys having two different Mickey Mouse Club House parties!  My son doesn't watch Mickey Mouse Club House, so this was another job I researched quite a bit.
The flat cake is a yellow 9x13 cake with blue, green, black, red, yellow, and white buttercream icing.  I flat iced the sky and hill with the rest of the decoration being stars.  I like to use different textures on my cakes because I think it makes them more interesting.  The price for this cake was:
Cakes: $1.84
Wrapping: $4.65
Icing: $2.43 per batch x 3 = $7.29
Labor: $6 per hour x 2.5 = $15
Total: $28.78

The two layer cake took a bit more thought.  The client really wanted Mickey ears to top the cake which could easily have been done with fondant icing.  I don't like fondant icing though because it doesn't taste good, and I see no reason to put something on a cake that doesn't taste good!  Especially a little boy's birthday cake!  Instead I iced two chocolate chip cookies and put them on the last minute before I delivered the cake!  They stood up, looked like Mickey ears, and were yummy!  The bottom layer was a 9" round chocolate cake topped by an 8" round yellow cake decorated with red, yellow, blue, and black buttercream icing.  The price for this cake was:
Cakes: $1.84 x 2 = $3.68
Wrapping: $4.65
Icing: $2.43 per batch x 4 = $9.72
Labor: $6 per hour x 3.5 = $21
Total: $35.05

Dinosaur Cupcakes

These are some of the cupcakes that accompanied the dinosaur for the little boy's third birthday.  Some were chocolate and some were yellow cake, but they all had the green, orange, and blue buttercream icing used on the dinosaur.
