Recently, as I mentioned in this prior post, I’ve been in baking mode. I have been making American-style sweets, cakes, pies, brownies, etc. Today’s photos are from some of my recent projects.
“The Elsa Birthday Cake”
This was a double-layer brownie cake. My brownie recipe is the bomb! Rich, dark and moist. The icing was a Swiss Buttercream Meringue. The edible photos are available from an online vendor. If I have enough notice, I can order any photo! They have small ones for cupcakes too. I’m thinking about buying a printer to make my own edible pictures.
The Jerry Garcia “Peace” Brownies
The Elsa cake was accompanied by miniature brownie cupcakes. They were sooooo good, that a few days later I baked another version, the Jerry Garcia Peace Brownies. These bite-sized babies had tie-dyed icing, just like any good Grateful Dead lovin’ fan would. You gotta feel a little peace after a one of these.
Yesterday, I almost had an order for a Teddy Bear cake. Sadly, it fell through, but I decided to bake anyway.
The “I Love Pretty Things” Lace Dress Cupcakes Cake
I tried out a new recipe here, a vanilla yogurt cupcake. I can’t take all of the credit for these, my husband makes the yogurt! I covered a cardboard liner with a pretty wrapping paper. Decorated the cakes with Swiss Meringue and pretty shiny edible candies. This would be perfect for a bridal shower, çay günü, Sweet 16 or a Quinceañera party! And what fun to make!
The creative juices are just flowing now! Get it while it’s hot!
Afiyet Olsun!

Good job Terry! The cupcake dress looks gorgeous! 🙂
Thanks Joy! Wish I had had the opportunity to study under you!
Well done Terry -Sounds like your cake business is taking off.
I wish, not so much yet. But there are other things to occupy my time.
