Alanna's baby shower Nov 2015

Also last November 2015 was another celebration.  My beautiful niece Alanna was expecting her 1st child. At the time of her shower she had no idea if the baby was going to be a boy or a girl. A winter wonderland themed cake was requested by mommy to be.

 

 

 

 

This delicious 2 tiered cake consisted of carrot cake filled with cream cheese filling for the bottom tier and vanilla cake filled with strawberries and cream for the top tier.  I used cake lace with the snow flake mat to create the beautiful wintery feel along the sides of the cake and dusted the snow flakes with soft pinks and blues.

 

The carriage was made with 1/2 Styrofoam ball covered with fondant and wire. All the details on the carriage are done in fondant.  I also added some coarse white sugar for frosty snow.  I loved making this cake and Alanna was thrilled with it.

 

 February 2015 we welcomed precious Mikaela to our family.
