These are easy as can be! Vanilla cupcakes for the bun, half a chocolate cupcake for the burger & colored buttercream for the ketchup, mustard & lettuce.

Pink, White & Zebra Fondant Cake
Every time I make a cake, it becomes my new favorite. This cake may hold first place for quite some time :)
Another graduation party cake, for another "cousin" of mine! Sloane's party theme was pink & black & zebra stripes. The cake (& cupcakes) fit in perfectly!
This cake was so much fun to make! I had my first experience making the zebra stripes, and I love the way it turned out. The beautiful thing about fondant? It withstood the 90+ degree heat on Saturday!
The bottom layer was chocolate, the middle was pink velvet funfetti, and the top layer was vanilla.
All the layers were filled & iced with vanilla buttercream & covered with homemade marshmallow fondant. The cake was topped with a gumpaste bow.
I also made vanilla & pink velvet funfetti cupcakes (in pink and black zebra striped liners), pictured in the background.
Congratulations, Sloane!!

Fondant & Swirls Cake
This is the other cake for the joint graduation party on Saturday. There were no specific requests, and all I knew was that she wasn't picky about flavor and loves purple. So naturally, I made her a purple velvet funfetti cake! It's filled and frosted with whipped vanilla buttercream & decorated with fondant.

Happy Graduation, Nikki!
My beautiful little cousin, Nikki, just graduated from high school last month. She is super smart and got an amazing scholarship for college, too! I had the honor of making her cake & cupcakes for her graduation party this weekend. I knew the cake had to be extra special, just like her ;)
Nikki asked for a lemon cake with a lemon curd & whipped cream filling. I decorated the cake with a purple (her favorite!) buttercream in ruffles.
Congratulations, Nikki!
