Polly, I mean Okie, Want a Cracker??




So many years ago my dad and mom bought this parrot in Oklahoma- they named him Okie. He is a double yellow headed parrot. Okie ended up living with one of my sisters. She has been whining on my fb everytime i post a picture of a cake-- "where's my cake" haha=== so I decided since i had some time on my hands to build her a cake


my first mistake was saying "well, what do you want your cake to look like?" of course she said- a parrot.. she didnt mean any parrot, she meant HER PARROT. he modeled for me the whole time though-- I think he was actually a little freaked out by the buiding of what we have become to call his girlfriend! so here it is ... btw-- this cake is totally edible.

Cruise anyone??

This ocean cruiser serves 300. All is edible, except the stacks. they are made of pvc pipe and have dry ice in them so they will 'smoke' the smoke is hard to see in the pics, as it begins to comeup out of the stacks--- I think it turned out pretty close to the school's logo for the event!

Calling all OU fans




I will apologize in advance for the quality of the pictures-- I took them with an iphone- i should invest in a decent camera :D

The BIGGEST fan of all OU fans that i know had to have me make him an OU cake for his mom's 73rd bday... quite a big birthday if you ask me... I wanted it to be special so since she is an OU fan as well I felt that I could bring my self to accept this task. However, as many of you know -- I bleed ORANGE :D... so as difficult as it was, we were able to build a partial football field (thanks to Jason) and then build the Sooner Schooner. Now, I have never seen this Schooner in person---only a picture so we will let you be the judge :D. primarily everything is edible-- there are a few pieces of support, but other than that-- edible! I hope that she has a great 73rd birthday! The flag was designed to stand up at the back of that wagon (apparently, they fly the flag while on the field) but I was afraid of the travel so they were going to place the flag upon arrival. hope you enjoy!

View at your own risk.


My husband said that this cake is too disturbing,ugly, weird, and disgusting to post. Ha- is there anything too disgusting to post within weeks of Halloween??? Not in this family!
The drawing was inspired by Staci--yes all the way from Japan. The cake/drawing/inspiration all for a really great friend. She is special. So, I asked Trey if he could make me a rough sketch of the vision Staci had and he did--I will post that picture first. Which of course I thought was a fantastic sketch and Trey said--" oh its in pen and took me like 5 mins'... whatever, it was perfect-- :D
anyway-- here is the cake-- all in its dusgustingness.
it is snow white--coming up out of a rotting apple. Snow is tattered--you can tell by the look in her eyes that 'she isn't right' her clothing is very tattered and far from the 'perfect Disney' character. the cake is the apple covered in first buttercream then fondant. Snow is ALL gumpaste as is the dwarf's head. The 'blood' is almost cooked red velvet cake-- therefore chunks in Snow's mouth kinda look like the dwarf's brain. the apple totally ROTTING!!!! check it out!
