Princess Birthday Cake

My sister-in-law asked me to make her daughter a birthday cake with Snow White. This was my interpretation of that, haha! I'm sure that if she asked me to make a cake, she would know it would be fancy. She just probably didn't think this fancy! But I wanted to try some new ideas, and birthday cakes are the perfect opportunity to try big ideas on a small scale! Lucky for her, this cake is free. My gift to her daughter.

This cake is frosted with a layer of buttercreme frosting, and then another layer of whipped frosting. Fondant is draped between the layers. The flowers are silk Roses & Hydrangeas.

This cake is actually a small wedding type cake, and costs $200.

Fathers Day Cheesecake!

For Fathers Day, we were to bring a dessert to a family dinner. I thought I'd pretty up a cheese cake. The cheesecake is topped with chocolate, blackberries, and marshmallow spring flowers garnished with mint leaves. Yummy!

This cake runs approximately $75 because of the time involved to make it. $50 without the flowers.

Themed Birthday Cake

This year my daughter wanted a "Hawaiian" birthday cake, and this is what I designed. The pond is made out of Jell-O, and the palm trees are made from Royal Icing.

This cake costs $100

New Harmony Wedding Cake

(Click Here for Cake Pricing & Information)

This cake was made for a client in New Harmony, Utah.

My client wanted the cake plain white, 3 tiers, round, with whipped frosting. The cake is chocolate. They were going to dress the cake up with sugar covered grapes, but never got around to it.I would have gladly decorated it for them, but wasn't asked to do so... Me, fearing that they wouldn't have the chance to do the grapes, fancied it up by lining each tier with buttercreme frosting roses for no additional cost. Very classic & fun I thought!

This cake cost $450 + $50 travel.

Pretty Cakes: Pricing and Information

Welcome to my cake blog. Periodically, I will post pictures and prices of cakes that I'm asked to make. Occasionally I will post other non-cake "pretty dessert" items as well.

I make cakes for:

• Weddings
• Birthdays
• Other Special Occasions

General Pricing:

• $100 per layer on Wedding Cakes, or other large cakes
• $100 extra added to cake if chocolate is desired (harder to frost & hide crumbs)
• $50 approximately extra for marshmallow roses (depending on amount)
• $50 extra for buttercreme icing roses (depending on amount)
• $50 extra if cake is to be transported out of St. George (aka Hurricane, Mesquite & surrounding areas)

You Provide:

• Cake toppers
• 50% down payment when booking
• Full payment when cake is delivered

What you need to consider:

• Type of Frosting - Buttercream, Whipped, Fondant
• Type of Cake - White, Vanilla, Confetti, Chocolate
• Round or Square Cake
• Do you want your cake stacked, on pillars, or on another type of stand.
• What you want the cake to look like. (colors, flowers, other decorations. consider the theme of your occasion)
• Do you want fresh or silk flowers? When we discuss your cake, I will need to know what colors you want me to use and type of flowers.
• Wedding Location. If your wedding is outdoors in warm weather, you will probably want a fondant cake. Buttercream & Whipped frosting melt under heat.
• How smooth do you want your cake? Whipped icing tastes amazing! But, it's hard to frost completely smooth. A smoother cake can be achieved with buttercreme frosting. A perfectly smooth cake can be achieved with fondant (although fondant doesn't taste very well if you will be serving the cake).
• What kind of cake do you want? I can easily make chocolate (additional fee), White cake, or Yellow cake. If you have another specific kind of cake you want, we can discuss it and make it possible!
