About Me

My photo
Kemptville, Ontario, Canada
Cake has been a part of my life for as far back as I can remember. My Mom was a cake decorator when I was younger and I discovered a few years ago that I had inerited her talent for it as well. I have not been satisfied with my jobs for a while now so I thought why not do something I love. Helping people celebrate the big moments of their lives. I can do cakes for all occasions. Let me be a part of your next celebration. Official website is secondgenerationcakedesign.com

Angry Birds Cupcakes

I made these angry bird cupcakes for a little boys birthday party. After doing 2 angry birds cakes now I am familiar with what they are but have yet to see the game. Maybe I will be able to when I pick out my new smart  phone next week. They were a huge hit and have been requested a few times already.

Christian Horizon's Celebration Cake

These cakes were for Christian Horizon's open house to celebrate their new day program opening. My Mom is the manager of these new day programs and when they were discussing the celebration she mentioned to them that she knew a cake decorator. I was honored to be able to make these cakes for them. I am sure that the day program will be fantastic for the people that Christian Horizon supports. The decoration of the cakes was inspired by their logo.

Golf Themed Birthday Cupcake Display


 These cupcakes were for a 70th birthday. He loved golf so his daughter ordered a cupcake display for him. One of the flavors she wanted was smore so I used those to make the sand trap cupcakes. I made the stand out of just cardboard and placed styrofoam balls on the bottom to look like golf balls. Topped it all off with a special "hole 70" cupcake just for the guest of honor.

Spring Chicken Easter/Birthday Cake

This cake was ordered to celebrate a 60th birthday. In order to combine spring and Easter into the birthday design Bill's daughter wanted the cake to say "you're still a spring chicken". I love it! This was a fun cake and with all the dinosaurs on the lawn when I delivered the cake it looked like it was going to be a fun party.
