Wet Paint
Simpsons painting Happy Birthday sign; Bart spilling paint on Homer. You guessed it: the images & the writing are all chocolate. The rope holding the 'scaffolding 'extends to the bottom of the cake. (ok, the icing could have been a bit smoother.. but I was concentrating on the chocolate design)

Officer Fred
You guessed it Fred is a cop; yes k-9 squad;Officer Fred, badge number 777, turned 30 (see Scooby's dog tag?); his favorite uncle who ordered two cakes for him said.. "he's really a kid who never grew up & still likes Scooby Doo." Both the police kid and Scooby are made of chocolate. (Ok, the cake edges are not perfect, & I wanted the chocolate border on the Scooby cake to look like paws.... but Fred loved the designs & the chocolate)

All Dressed
12X12 inch cake serving as a table to hold a 'pizza, all dressed'; Italian tablecloth is rolled fondant with red pattern painted with red gel color disolved in vodka; the pizza & the baking dish are made completely out of chocolate (the hardest color to make was the reddish-brown for the pepperoni. Pizza is sliced, one slice is partially eaten & 'someone' discarded a mushroom ! (you must serve one of these for dessert on Family Pizza Night!)

Hogwarts Coat Of Arms
This is a chocolate mousse cake, covered with chocolate ganache. though I did not make the cake, I was asked to decorate it in a Harry Potter theme. I decided to make the Coat of Arms for the Hogwarts School of Magic, all out of chocolate. The receipent of the cake refused to cut through the image, removed the chocolate plaque & kept it in the fridge for weeks!
