Reese's first Birthday




My twin sons both welcomed a baby girl into their respective families last June and July and babies are turning one this summer.

London was in a previous post.

Reese's birthday was the end of July and as everyone calls her Reese Cup, her parents requested a cake looking like the candy bar.

The "cup" exposed is a chocolate peanut butter cake with a peanut butter mousse. It is covered in brown fondant and then airbrushed for shading. The exposed bite represented the peanut butter (but it was fondant).

The "package" cake was half Red Velvet and half Spice with a cheesecake filling. The whole thing was covered in orange fondant and airbrushed for depth. At birth Reese was 9 lbs. 2 oz., hence the net weight on the cake. The lettering was fondant and cut a few days prior to construction to allow for air drying. It was a great celebration of a sweet little girl.

Happy birthday Reese cup!!!

In the second picture the Titan's football was a birthday cake for my lovely daughter-in-law who is a cheerleader for the Tennessee Titans and was celebrating her birthday a few days after the baby. The football was white cake with raspberry compote, covered in brown fondant. All the stars, streamer, and logo were fondant made a few day in advance to allow for air drying.

Happy Birthday Stephanie!!!
