I’ll (almost) never say no to buttercream and fresh florals! And I think the sage green exterior was the perfect backdrop for those deep burgundy ranunculus 💕 #babysprinkle #buttercreamcake

Decorate a cake for a photo shoot with me ☺️ 45 minutes worth of attaching 360 wafer paper half-moons, all condensed into one minute! Not shown is the couple of hours it takes to cut each of these pieces first 😬🙈 Wafer paper is probably one of my favorite mediums to work with, and I’m looking for other ways to be more creative with it! 💕🍰 #waferpapercake #waferpaper

“My colors are Blush and Bashful” ☺️💕 While this wedding had *far* more colors than just pink, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to create an armadillo cake (á la Steel Magnolias) for Blake and Branden! I absolutely love how he turned out 🥹🍰🫶🏻 #armadillocake #steelmagnolias #armadillo #losangelescake

Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly add more wafer paper half-circles, I had to add more! 😂 If you followed the story from last week, the correct answer for that cake was 270 pieces. For this one? 360 🤯 But the result has me 😍

Let’s do a little lesson here— fresh flower edition! When adding fresh florals, my preference is always to add to your existing floral order (whether it’s a wedding, birthday, or other occasion where flowers will be present in the room) so that everything matches in color and variety. When that’s not an option, it’s something I’ll need to source. The more variety or color, the higher the price tag. Just to buy the flowers for this cake (garden roses x 2 types, spray roses, tulips, ranunculus, lisianthus, orchids) was over $80. 😳 (oh, and that acrylic cake board? $30) Just waiting for the next one! 💕🍰🌹

Taking a look back at this 14” olive oil lemon cake from a gorgeous October 2025 wedding reception with @rob_gentile and his team. Mascarpone frosting and fresh Black Mission figs from @j.g.berries (almost a full flat!) are all it needed for an unforgettable end to a delicious meal! 🍰

Without further ado, the second cake of 2026! Though to be fair, they both went out on the same date (@bunnyflip you will always be first in my book! 💕) More buttercream waves, please! 🍰✨

And now the first cake of the year 🥰 If 2026 is full of buttercream designs and fresh flowers, I’ll be a happy cake designer! Let’s do this! ☺️💕🌹💐🍰🎂 (shoutout to Michelle from @somethingsbloomingla for some gorgeous blooms)
