Happy Fourth of July!!

These are Ginger Flavored Cookies decorated for the 4th of July. I had a batch of these cookies in the freezer and since we are having a family get-together to celebrate the day I decided to thaw the dough and make cookies to have as part of the dessert table. Enjoy your day and let Freedom Ring, and God Bless the USA!!

Gadgets and cute things!

It didn't take long for me to do something cake related, between catching up with house chores and doing errands now that I'm home, I managed to make some gumpaste orchids just to keep up with my skills.  I've been wanting to buy a sign that reads "dream", and in one of those errands mentioned above I found a bargain at a store here in Florida called "Ross".  The sign was a bargain since it was big and my dear husband asked the manager for a discount since he saw a little scratch on the back.  Going back to the orchids I made, I placed the orchids in the sign and had to take a picture.  I think it came out so adorable.

Summer Vacation is Here!!!

Summer is here! and finally I'm going on vacation after a hectic year. Having a full-time job and baking after hours and on weekends has been quite a challenge, but a challenge that I've enjoyed. Though, I have to admit that I'm ready for restful, relaxing days and enjoying time with family.  Baking and decorating are my passion and, of course, in between those vacation days I would like to include some days for....you guessed it! baking and cake decorating. Actually I am looking forward to doing some cake projects and tutorials that I had on the back of my mind but never had the time to accomplish.  I've made my list and hope to be able to check-off some projects.  I will keep you posted so keep checking my log and visit my Facebook page "Glamour Cakes by Edith".  Happy Summer!!

Monsters Inc. Cake

Monsters Inc. Cake made for a one year old, Landon. It was fun making this cake along with the smash cake. For the first time I actually saw someone smash a cake, of course, it was not the big  cake which made it a little easier to see. I cannot imagine making a huge cake just to have it smashed!!

Here's Landon smashing his little cake, just love his face expression!

Lady Bugs Everywhere!

This ladybug cupcakes were seen in "Woman World's Magazine" and here's a replica of the ones I made.  I think they came out so cute, besides they were delicious.
