Heart With Roses
This cake gave me such a headache, had huge problems making roses and had to make another batch of icing. It turned out great in the end, although they almost got drop flowers I was so frustrated LOL. Still have to work on my writing. I redid the 4 about six times and it still didn't look how I wanted, but I figured better leave it alone. Butter cake torted into three layers with strawberry preserves and cream cheese icing. Roses are all crisco icing after my failed attempts.

Jmu Graduation
Yay Class of 2006! I made this for a friend and me in May for our graduation from James Madison University! The hat is a cupcake and a cardboard square covered in black cloth. The tassel is made out of buttercream (I LOVE butter cream!). It was french vanilla made with apple sauce instead of oil. I think it makes the cakes so much more moist.

Make Up Bag
alternate view: 7 inch white chocolate mud cake covered in fondx. Handle and make up are out of gumpaste. Lid is made from one strip of fondx cut using ribbon cutter and glued around the cake to give impression of lid. First time using fondx.. very soft to use... tastes divine.. a real winner in the fondant department. For my daughters 10th birthday.

Uncle Sam Hat Cake
This is a 4 layer white cake mix with white chocolate pudding mixed into it. 2 of the 4 layers were colored blue and strawberry presserves were in between the layers (for the red, white, and blue effect when cutting). The brim is painted mmf, and the blue ribbon and stars are mmf. The entire cake is covered in crusted buttercream and the other decorations are bc.

Course I Final
Here is my final cake from Course I. It's marble cake with a choc truffle filling and BC icing. I wasn't too excited with the decorations because I wanted to do a different design but our instruction kind of pushed us all to this one. Roses turned out okay, I call them my "knockout" roses. People at work the next day loved it, so I guess it's not too bad.
