Birthday Cakes

This past month I was asked to make three birthday cakes for friends and family. I just thought I would post pictures of them since I never did get around to doing that at the time I made them. Well, the sleepover cake I made last night. That's what made me think to post more pictures.
Here's a picture of the birthday cake I made for my friend and co-worker Charlotte, well part of the cake anyways. I was in the process of making it, as you can see. The yummy cheesecake filling was a hit! It did taste pretty good, if I do say so myself. :)
Flash on!

And this is the Elmo cake my sister asked that I make for Cali's birthday. I have to admit, I was really excited to be able to make the cake. I think it turned out pretty good, though I think I could've done better (my hand was getting tired near the end, lol).
And this sleepover cake is the cake I finished last night. My co-worker asked me this week if I'd be willing to make her daughter's birthday cake for her. After looking at all of her ideas she had, we found a cake that she LOVED. So, this is the final product! I took the idea she gave me, and changed up a few things that I didn't like about it. I have to admit, at first I didn't want to make this particular cake. The picture of it was ugly, so alterations were absolutely necessary. I'll post the original photo down below at the very bottom. And I was also able to find plenty other sleepover cakes as well that did look better and took a few ideas from them as well (the hairdos of the girls for instance). If you pay close attention, you can see they're laying on pillows (marshmallows :)).

Here's the original pic. Yuck!And this is another picture of that cake, now do you see why I hesitated in wanting to recreate this?
