Lindsay's Description:

While Mrs Mullen makes cakes for others, she does not consider cake decorating her business, more a messy hobby!  Looking at the photographs of her cakes, they are anything but messy and seeing the feedback she gets from people lucky enough to have sampled her cakes they seem to agree. Mrs Mullen has a friendly chatty style of blogging and combined with her fun, novelty cakes makes For the Love of Cake a must visit blog for all her fellow cake decorators.

Mrs Mullen's Description:

...not many people I know dislike cake!! What I have found that I love even more is decorating cakes!! This is a new found hobby and I'm by no means professional.

Have Cake and Eat It Too!!

19 April 2011

My neighbor, who is also a very good friend of mine, recently celebrated her birthday and of course I just HAD to make her a cake...but this was no "normal" cake.  You see, my sweet friend is allergic to gluten.  Sadly, the main ingredient in cake is flour, which is nothing but a bunch of ...

Basketball Birthday

19 April 2011

These cupcakes were made for the daughter of a guy I work with.  She told her dad all she wanted for her birthday was a basketball. Well, she got two dozen...cupcake syle! Basketballs were made out of fondant and hand drawn with an edible food marker.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas

07 March 2011

"The Grinch hated Christmas - the whole Christmas season. Now, please don't ask why; no one quite knows the reason. It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight. Or it could be that his head wasn't screwed on just right. But I think that the most likely reason of all may have been that his ...

Forgotten-Forgive Me

24 February 2011

I'm here! I'm here! I wish I would of thought to post a note here sooner, alas' I decided to take a break from cake decorating back in January and never thought to post an explanation. I started taking a handful of classes at my local community college (web design and creative writing!!) and ...

GO GAMECOCKS!!!

22 November 2010

This cake was a LOT of fun to make largely because...well, I'm a South Carolina Gamecocks fan! This cake was actually a birthday cake, made for a guy that loves Gamecocks and Ralph Lauren Polo. His daughter requested that I find a way to mix the two. At first I thought it might be a bit of a ...

Birthday Bugs!

22 November 2010

The birthday boy that received this cake is a bug fanatic! He loves his insects (knows them all too). So what better cake to make than one covered in bugs? The bottom layer was yellow cake and actually my first attempt at a square cake! (Shocking, I know). The tree stump layer was chocolate ...

My Little Pony Birthday Cake

22 November 2010

I do not typically use any plastic toys on any of my cakes, in fact, this was the first time. However, this cake was for my goddaughter and I wanted her to have the ability to keep the ponies after her cake was gone. Kind of a way to have her cake and her birthday present too. The cake was ...

Cake Wreck!!!!

22 September 2010

I'm getting ready to post pictures of the latest cakes that I've made...and was going to just stick to posting the pictures and adding a little briefing about what materials were involved. You know, basically just do what I've been doing. Then I remembered why I started this whole blog. It really ...
