Blooming Birthday Cake
This was a cake I created for a little girl's 7th birthday. She loves flowers and the colors pink and purple. The design was taken from a cake that was featured on the cover of a recent edition of Mailbox News. The cake is covered in fondant and the daisies on the cake board hold seven candles.

Chinese Themed Cake
This cake was created for a fundraiser for a student that is going to travel to China for two weeks. All of the accent pieces are made from gumpaste and/or fondant and were hand painted except the dragon and the small Chinese print which were stamped on using edible food coloring as the ink.

Lavendar And Ivory Tied Birthday Cake
This cake was inspired by a cake I saw on CC by jsmith and loved the design. This cake was made using two 9" layers and one 8" layer in the middle for the "tied" pulled in effect. This was created for a 40th birthday party. The fondant covering the cake and all accent pieces were made using Satin Ice fondant.

Ivory, Black And Gold Wedding Cake
This is a four tier wedding cake for 200 covered with Stain Ice fondant and with all fondant accents. The gold accents were spray painted using PME Gold Luster Dust Spray and then accented with powdered luster dust as well. The actual cake is white cake with all buttercream filled layers. For the final touch I sprinkled very fine edible glitter over the cake which sparkled in the light, unfortunately it doesn't show in the photo. I hope you like it!

Black And White Wedding Shower Cake
This cake was for a bride's wedding shower whose colors were black and white and the invitations were contemporary with black and white circles. The only color the bride is using in the wedding is red, and they are going to be red roses, so we included them on her cake as well. I saw the top of a cake done by JSmith called "Curvy" and loved it and so did the bride, so we used the design only slightly changing the fondant roses. Thanks JSmith ! The cake is made entirely of fondant, as well as the monogram.

Wedding Cake Sample - Black & Gold
This was a sample cake I created for a bride whose colors for her wedding are black and gold. The cake is a white cake with BC filling, then covered and accented with fondant. I used Satin Ice Black fondant and Satin Ice Ivory for the other pieces. The gold daisies were hand painted with gold dust that I purchased online from Beyrl's . The color is Solar Gold and is beautiful if you need the look of real gold.

Gardening Cake
This is a Wilton inspired cake and was my first fondant cake ever. It was a true experience. This was made for my grandmother's 80th birthday since she is an avid gardener. Everything on the cake is fondant, and the flower pot is a mini wonder cake with crushed cookies for the dirt. The only thing that is no fondant are the wires holding the flower up.

Indy Race Car
This is a fondant cake I made for a Indy / Formula 1 fan. I owe a BIG thank you to "Lisas-Cakes" for providing me with details on how she made her race car cake. The only problem I had was with the tires. I used cake which was not dense enought to stand up, so the racecar is running on flat tires. Next time I will use Rice Krispy Treats for the tires which seems to be the magic secret when creating tires for any type of cake.

Ivory & Hydrangeas - Wedding Cake
This is my first wedding cake, and it was for 300 people. It's a four tier square cake using Wilton's Push In Pillars, and covered in ivory fondant. The cake weighed a ton, 15 lbs. of fondant was used. I then used a sugar shaper to make four square shaped ropes stacked on top of one another to make a small wall. At the end of each corner I overlapped the ends so that when one corner started and another corner ended they looked more fluid on the corners. We used the bride and grooms initials on the top.

Nursing School Graduation Cake
This cake was made for a friend's nursing school graduation. All of the pieces on the cake were made using a medical-themed chocolate mold but I used fondant to shape the pieces. Each side has different medical instruments. On the sides I made a capsule and a round scored pill as well.
