My week in pictures

I baked 8 layers of cake.  3 different flavors.
leveling all of the layers.

making various shades of green fondant, trying to get just the right shade to match the wedding colors.
break in caking to take Hannah to the ER.  She hopped on a piece of wood while jumping rope and got a big splinter in her foot.  I thought it needed stitches (thankfully it did not)

my big "helper"  He broke my spatula.  He just doesn't know his own strength. :)

a little more quality control.  Hey, we wouldn't want to ruin a wedding with bad cupcakes!
We all decided they were yummy and safe to eat. :)
time to ice
while these cooled off
swirl and bow... times almost 100
Oh, and did I mention that Roger built a cupcake stand while I was busy caking? (that is a verb by the way.  At least in my world)

The top tier of the cupcake tower.  The detail on the fondant is similar to the sash on the Bride's dress.
Grooms Cake (do I need to mention that they are drums? You can tell that they are drums, right?)
The cake table at the wedding
The beautiful Bride and her handsome Groom.

I know! He does look so grown up in that picture! His hair was long and I spiked it.. I think he looked so much older like that. I just cut it the other day - not because I thought he looked old though. The boy was poofy. :)
