I followed a link to a cake decorator in St. Petersburg, Russia. Her name is Jane and she has some amazing cakes in her gallery. The site is all in Russian, but the pictures are great. Click on the thumbnails to get a larger picture. The gallery is the second item in the menu.

I think my favorite is this one:

which I believe is the Smolny Cathedral in St. Petersburg.

Of course, CC decorators are just as good if not better.
