Ruffle Cake
Here is a simple way to dress up a white buttercream cake. By adding marshmallow fondant ruffles your cake turns into a tasty, gluten free piece of art. You can do horizontal ruffles, ruffled roses, buttercream or fondant ruffles, but I chose a more avant-garde approach.
Take a little edible luster dust and switch your cake from the demure to the dramatic.

What is Your Best Memory or Thought When You Think About Your Father?
Update:
So I wasn’t sure if I wanted to share these projects with you because they were far from where I wanted them, but here are my Father’s Day cookie baskets that I did for my family.
Father’s Day is fast approaching (and I am hoping to have a great Father’s Day project done for you tomorrow), but in the meantime, what do you think about when you think about your father or dad? My dad proudly served his country, and for that I am very proud, but my best memories with my dad are when we get to go fishing together. We just went this last weekend, and even though we didn’t catch anything, it is always fun to spend time together.
So what is your best memory? I look forward to reading your replies!
Love in Christ,
Angela
Gluten Free Cake Pops
Here is a look at our latest creations. I say our because God is the designer and I just throw things in a bowl and stir (and even that is by God’s grace). Posted below are just a few of the things that I made for the Midland Antique festival. By the way, cake pops can last 7 hours in 82 degree weather before they melt. In case you were wondering:)
And I know this isn’t a cake pop, but it’s pretty:).

Thanks for stopping by!
Gluten Free Cupcake Bouquets
I recently had an order for a red velvet cake flower bouquet. The icing is all buttercream, with the exception of the chrysanthemums, which are marshmallows. I would not recommend buttercream for a humid or hot day, but for a short period of time, these make a beautiful display. The Lord blessed, and I was very happy with the result.

It’s finally done. Not at all what I had first set in my mind to do, but it’s finished, what a blessing! As I haven’t slept since Wednesday, I am going to go and try to catch a couple of zzzs before preparing for the farmers market tomorrow. Lord willing, I will be at the Midland Farmer’s Market tomorrow with my decorative gluten free sugar cookies, so look for me there!

Just finishing up my crumb coat of the free Graduation Cake. I did chocolate and vanilla layers with vanilla buttercream frosting. Check out this new buttercream frosting that I found with Dream Whip in it to better stabilize the frosting against high humidity and heat. This will be the test to see how well it works. Check out the yummy work done so far. God is good!
Indydebi’s Crisco-Based Buttercream Icing
Via Cake Central
Ingredients
- 1-1/3 cups Cricso 1/3 to 1/2 cup milk, depending on consistency needed
- 3 Tbsp powdered Dream Whip (*)
- 2-3 Tbsp clear vanilla, depending on your personal taste
- 2 lbs powdered sugar
(*) A powdered whipped topping mix made by Kraft Foods, usually found in the cake/sugar aisle in the grocery.
Instructions
- There’s no wrong way to mix this. I usually mix all but the powdered sugar for a minute or two, then gradually add the sugar, but the only reason I did this was to avoid the “sugar-splash” factor. The longer the mixer runs, the smoother it gets. Sifting the powdered sugar before blending helps with smoothness but is not necessary.
Original Post: How to Win a Free Graduation Cake
I’ve decided to take on the task of making a wedding cake sized, graduation cake. It is going to be three tiers, custom designed and (if it comes out the way I want it to) I will be giving it away this Saturday. What’s the catch? No catch. I just don’t want to be stuck with a huge graduation cake because I really would eat the whole thing by myself. It will depict the road to graduation. starting with high school, books and papers then to graduation day and moving boxes and suitcases to the top tier that wishes the grad Congrats and a Class of 2014 topper.
So how do you win? Visit the By Grace Cakes blog, and write in the comments section of this page as to why you should win this cake. Have others write in and vote for the one that they want to win. And somebody had better write in, otherwise I will be sitting here with a fork and this huge cake all to myself:)

Happy Anniversary to You!
It was my mom and dad’s 36th wedding anniversary the other day, so I decided to try out the methods that my new cake decorating classes taught me on their cake. Those methods include: the Lambeth Method (a detailed piping method using royal icing) and wrapping a cake in modeling chocolate vs. fondant or buttercream. For a first try, it wasn’t half bad. I would definitely clean up my piping and cake wrapping a bit, but there is always room for improvement.
The cake is split into two flavors: Lemon Sponge Cake and Pineapple Upside Down Cake (both gluten free).
Here is the Lemon Sponge Cake (click for recipe)
and here is the Pineapple Upside Down Cake (all gluten free of course).
I dirty iced the layers with Swiss Meringue Buttercream
and then covered it in modeling chocolate.
I made a homemade lemon custard to fill the lemon sponge cake that tasted awesome! I found the recipes in my Grandma Mickey’s old cookbook. The good ones are the old ones:)
YUMMMM!!!
This cake was made out of 5 six inch layers. The sponge cake came out thinner, that’s why I used three to match the width of the pineapple upside down cake, instead of two.
I picked up some PME daisy cutters and made some modeling chocolate daisies. Then, I made a separate color of modeling chocolate for the middle of the daisy, and attached it with a little royal icing. I detailed the daisy petals with royal icing and wrapped a wooden skewers with light green modeling chocolate. That is oversimplifying things terribly, but a lot of it was trial and error. The idea was to mix the traditional Lambeth Method piping with some chunky looking, fun daisies. My mom had daisies in her bridal bouquet, hence the incorporation of the daisies.
Happy Baking!!!
