Oreo Mint Truffles

My sister gave me a great idea to add truffles to the mix of sweet for my bakery! Since I decided to make these for my friend's mom's birthday, I decided to make mint oreo truffles since I know how much my friend loves mint oreos! =) So this is the final product, I also made some in heart shape as well, it's fun to try different shapes to fit any occasion. One thing's for sure is that these can really satisfy anyone's sweet teeth cravings! Mint, oreos, and milk chocolate, I'd say that's truffle-ly sweet and delightful!

Masquerade Birthday Cake

This cake is a Mardi Gra/Masquerade inspired cake for my aunt's birthday! The cake is a mint chocolate chip cake (request by her son, my cousin) and is filled with raspberry mousse since raspberries are her favorite. The purple roses are made from basic buttercream and the mask is painted with black food coloring, and the orchids, crysanthemum, violets, and leaves are made out of gumpaste. The cake is covered in ivory fondant with black buttercream piping.
