Today I have the last two cakes that I did at work.
One morning I show up at work to find this order hanging on my table.
I had to call the customer to let them know that a frog is not something I have ever done before. Of course no answer so I had to leave a message. The note on the bottom of the order form was just in case she didn't call back before I left.
Any way, she returned my call, I explained the situation and told her I was willing to try it but wanted to let her know it might not look so good. She laughed and told me to do the best I could.
I started by drawing it on paper, the with plain white icing to see how it would look.
At this point I figured I could pull it off so I went ahead and did it on the cake.
And here is the whole cake.
This next one, a customer came in on a Friday and ordered a cake for the next day. The person who works on my days off can do cakes but she doesn't like to. I asked the customer if it was ok if I did it that day and said ok. I asked what she wanted on it and she told me it was for a boy and I could just surprise her. This is something totally different for me but I think it turned out pretty cool. Not sure what the customer thought of it though.
For some reason every blog I have tried to comment on this morning is saying failed to load. If I don't comment on your blog today, that's why. Sorry.

Love that frog! You are so creative.
Great frog! Boys are so difficult when it comes to cakes or cards for that matter. I'm sure he was delighted with it.
Ann your FROG is all kinds of adorable...Hoppy you tried it and I bet there will be more request. Perfect color on the frog too
Happy 14h to James was I'm sure well received today too.
I will check my spam folder to see if perchance you comment went into it.
I'll let you know
Hugs Cecilia
Nope comment from you in spam...blogger likes to make
'improvements' in the wee hours of the morning. Maybe turn off 'puter and try again
Absolutely brilliant!
That frog came out great! I love the other cake too. So sorry about your comments.
What a great job you did on the frog. I'm sure they LOVED it!!!
That frog was great, you are so clever! The other cake looked like the perfect cake for a 14-year old boy, and the design was fun. Sorry about your comment problem. I have been having glitches off and on for a long time. They'd stop for a while and then something else would pop up. I was getting a lot of comments that automatically went into my spam folder. I know others have been having that too. But all of a sudden that has cleared up, for how long I'll keep my fingers crossed. I know one of the ladies was having a problem commenting on my blog a while back and I haven't seen her since which I am very sorry about. I was afraid to change any of the settings because I didn't want any of my other blogging friends to all of a sudden not be able to comment. This has happened before and I regretting changing my settings because of it. I am just not as computer savvy as some and don't like to mess around with settings. And you just never know what's going on with blogger. Hope yours clears up soon.
Your frog is so good, especially for the first time on a cake! I also like the second one. It is not too sentimental or flowery because it is for a teenage boy.
Hurray for the frog. Good for you for warning them, just in case. ❤️
