Lego Cake

Last year I made Lucas a Nascar cake, this year...he is getting a Lego themed birthday. The 'connectors' on top are made by dipped Double Stuffed Oreos in melted chocolate.

He-Man Cake

The inspiration for this cake came from the birthday girl's childhood hero, He-Man.

They used to make a pan in the shape of He-Man, but the only place you can find him now is on E-Bay. So, the decision was made to make a cake in the shape of his shield.
I also printed off some pictures to decorate the bottom of the cakeboard:

It was a little difficult to see the orange on red writing, but I wanted to be as authentic as possible to 'his colors.'

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Cupcakes

I decided to try out a cupcake recipe I'd wanted to try for awhile, with a twist. I saw a few versions of a Reese's Cakes, and I decided I wanted to spice it up with a cupcake version. I decided to add a ganache to the peanut butter icing that would harden like 'the real thing.'
