Snowmen Cake Balls

It's a snowy day in Austin today so I thought these snowman cake balls would be perfect to post. I actually made them in November when I was visiting my nieces in Illinois. They are chocolate cake balls dipped in white chocolate. We used fondant for the scarves. Next time I will use a chocolate coated marshmallow for the hat, but we used what we had for this attempt.

Braces!


I made these cake balls for someone who was getting her braces off and wanted to thank her orthodontist's office for taking care of her for the last 2 years. Half are chocolate and half are french vanilla. I made the braces on the chocolate cake balls a little shinier in order to help identify the flavors since they all look the same. It was a lot of fun to make these!

50th Anniversary Cake Balls

These cake balls were for a couple's 50th anniversary celebration. I coated them in white chocolate and then added a gold glaze in honor of their Golden anniversary. What a wonderful thing to celebrate!

iCarly

I made these cake balls for an iCarly birthday party for a 5 year old. They served them to the adults and the kids had cupcakes. Cute idea!

Groom's "Cake"

This was a groom's cake for a 10-10-10 wedding this year. I did the initials with the lemon flavored cake balls. The chocolate covered cake balls are triple chocolate and red velvet.

Ice Cream Sundae Cake Balls

Avery's 4th birthday party has an Ice Cream Sundae theme (which is perfect for the 103 degree weather we are having). I made these cake balls to go along with the theme of the party. I used chocolate, strawberry, and lemon cake and coated them in white or slightly pink icing to reflect different flavors of ice cream. Then I topped it with chocolate almond bark, white almond bark and then a red m&m to represent the cherry on top.



I made 100 total cake balls for the party so we mixed it up a little by having several different kinds of ice cream, a 4 to represent her age, A for Avery and K for Kendel (Avery's best friend who is celebrating her 4th birthday together with Avery).

I had a lot of fun making these, even though they were pretty time consuming. I love that they go perfectly with the theme.

I've been so busy making cake balls that I haven't had the chance to post pictures. Here are some of the cake balls I have made recently.

Lemon cake balls are a huge hit! Perfect for summertime!

The Latest

French Vanilla cake balls with chocolate coating for baby Aja's first birthday party. It was so nice of them to allow me to be part of the celebration by providing these treats.
Another great referral order from my friend, Maria. These are half chocolate with chocolate coating and half french vanilla with white chocolate coating.
THESE. These are the newest flavor I'm making called French Toast. They are easily rising to the top of my favorites list. If you are a fan of french toast, you will love these cake balls.

Showered with Sweets

These are french vanilla cake balls for a baby boy's parents who are anxiously awaiting the day he is released from the NICU so he can go home.


Baby Shower
These are french vanilla and double chocolate cake balls for a baby shower that one of my favorite people ordered for a work baby shower. I did a mixture of pink and blue cake balls since the parents are waiting until the baby is born before they learn if they will have a girl or a boy.

Christmas Orders

I made 5 kinds for 3 different orders last week. Here we have triple chocolate with peppermint on top, amaretto chocolate, red velvet and peanut butter chocolate. I also made the traditional triple chocolate with this batch.
But mmmm, triple chocolate sure is good with some crushed peppermint on top. Not that I am picking a favorite or anything. :-)

Just a few more orders to fill this week, including one tonight that I am working on now, and then I think I will try some fun shapes next week.

Birthday Party and Christmas Experiments

These dinosaur cake balls are for a little boy's first birthday party. They are double chocolate (a fan favorite) with sugar dinosaurs on top.

Since I had a few cake balls left over after making Dylan's birthday cake balls, I decided to experiment with some Christmas designs. Here's my first pass at making reindeer. There is room for improvement, but they are pretty cute little guys.

All wrapped up and ready to give Avery's teachers and my friends that I am meeting for lunch tomorrow. What a great treat!

The Most Popular Reason To Go To A Party

double chocolate cake balls dipped in white chocolate coating.
French vanilla cake balls dipped in white and milk chocolate.
Lots and lots of refills ready to go when the trays started to empty, which was 5 minutes after the party started.
The only example of how the inside looked. The rest were eaten too fast to get a photo of. There were 80 cake balls at the start of the party. 1 survived the night.

Cupcake Cake Balls

I made these for my son's first birthday. They are really whimsical and fun for little kids. There is still a cake ball inside of that cupcake shell made of chocolate, which means it is cute and yummy!
