Ghosts Love Chocolate!

Total copy of VickiC's cake...but hers is SO much better!! Thanks for posting your cake VickiC!! I'd had a little too much coffee and my side piping and borders got a little wonky on me...LOL. Made for the cakewalk at my son's school's fall festival. Orange butter cake, layers brushed with Grand Marnier and dark chocolate frosting.

The Polka Dot Teapot

Lemon Buttermilk Pound cake with Raspberry Curd filling and White Chocolate icing. 8'/2 layer round on bottom, ball pan teapot; MMF/Gumpaste (50/50) for all decos. Had issues with the handle..part of the bottom broke off but was able to patch it long enough to get pics and serve. First time using entire ball pan for a cake -first time covering a cake in fondant-first time delivering a cake more than 30 minutes away...and it made it!! Thanks to those here who helped with my questions & thanks for looking!

4Th Of July Cupcake Cake

This was very last minute - DH told his mother I'd make one for their party on Saturday - WITHOUT asking me first!? (Our house is a construction zone right now) grrrrrrr Anyway - I went ahead and did it, with some suggestions from a few of you here and on another board. Left half is chocolate sour cream cc's, right half is red velvet - cream cheese icing all over. This went really quickly and I think I'm now hooked on these little ccc's! Thanks for looking!

End Of School Year Party - Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes

We had a swim party for the end of the year & I needed a quick, easy dessert for the kids...plus it needed to be easily transported. Came up with the idea of the cups and the m&m's...the candy gave the cones a 'seat' and kept them from flopping around. Plus, the kids were able to munch on it, then put it back in their cup and swim or play some more...worked out great! Chocolate, vanilla & strawberry cake w/chocolate & vanilla BC. Thanks for looking!

3D R2D2

First time doing a 3D cake...it was tons of fun! Thanks to SquirrellyCakes for all of her advice...I couldn't have done this cake otherwise. Three 6x3 round Chocolate Mud cakes (thanks boonenati & auzzi) with WBH Cookies & Cream filling. BC icing and MMF accent decorations. My DS loved it!

Audrey's First Birthday Cake

For my little girl's 1st birthday back in September. Bottom, top layers & smash cake - Key Lime cake with Cream Cheese-Key Lime buttercream filling...middle layer - French Vanilla cake with Cream Cheese-Strawberry buttercream filling. All are frosted with Cream Cheese Buttercream. The desired effect was that the inside was pink & green just like the outside of the cake. Flowers & initial topper are fondant, grass and stems of flowers are buttercream. The cake matched her dress...this was so much fun!!
