Dachshund Cake

So, you can see in the earlier post that we have a weenie dog. She is the center of our daughter's existence. We think every kid should grow up with a dog, don't you?

Anyway we've had her since she was 8 weeks old and 4 pounds. Here's a picture of what she looked like then...



And here she is now!


So anyway, our daughter wanted a birthday cake that had little weenie dogs on it. This is what I made for her

The little doggies all represent ours, she spends her day sleeping, climbing on top of things and looking proud, and also eating stuff she's not supposed to eat. So silly!

Wubbzy



Our son Loves Wubbzy sooo much that it was what he wanted on his cake. I must admit that I love to watch wow wow wubbzy too, so it was very easy to create this cake for him. I know that he loves the doodleberry bushes too, so of course Wubbzy has a bowl of them. The kids knew what they were too "can I have a doodleberry?" when I was cutting the cake. And, yes, we had the cake on the beach, which meant I had to carry the cake on my lap as my husband drove on the windy freeway all the way there, quite an adventure. Whew!


And of course, there's my sweet hubby in the background with Wubbzy! hee hee!

And since I'm posting family pics, here's one of our weenie dog Bee, after she had rooted around in the sand and dug a hole to sit in :)

Louis Vuitton Purse

This cake was made specifically to model the cake that the birthday girl was getting for her birthday. It was the first LV cake I ever made, and it was really funny walking down the street at Santana Row, carrying this cake on a big board, everyone was looking at me like I was crazy to parade a purse down the street.
