Like Totally Rad... Happy Birthday!


This is a three tier cake I made a 35th surprise birthday.. can you guess the theme? The top tier has a Simple Simon and of course the second has cassette tapes and also an MTV logo on the other side. The bottom feature Ms Pac Man. What a fun cake to create- I had a blast doing it! The bottom layer is the classic yellow cake with fudge frosting and the top and middle layer are chocolate with chocolate frosting.

Welcome to Kate's Cakes

Hello Cake Lovers!

I started this blog to talk about and share pictures of my cakes. I love to bake and create cakes for special occasions. This all started with my mother. From the time I was very small, I remember her making amazing and creative cakes for all my birthday parties. This is the one detail I remember from my childhood parties, so when I became a mom, I decided I wanted to create these wonderful and special memories for my two boys. Anytime is a good time for cake, but a special cake always seems to make a birthday, baby shower or any other event a memorable occasion and shows the person who receives it just how important they are to you. Over the years, I have taken some classes and learned from trial and error. It has been a fun and messy road and it is just the beginning!
