Present
This is that good old present we make in Course III. I end up making so many of these! The funny thing about this is, I made one for a female co-worker, and everybody loved it so much, and one of the males had a birthday coming up, so he asked me to make on for him just like it! I was surprised, have always figured this was a lady's cake, but maybe not! He love it!

Puppy Cake
This was an accident. I was going to make a cake to enter in the contest, but tried an off brand cake release and the cake broke coming out of the pan, so I figured heck, I'll just carve it and make a puppy. I've been wanting to anyway. Thanks to the one who posted the befores of her dog all carved, and I can't find who that was! I appreciate all the great role models here at CC. This is my first go, I really admire everyone who can do so perfectly the first time. But my kids love this!

Danny's Birthday Cake
This is the cake I made for my son's birthday. It is a character from Yu-Gi-Oh GX called elemental hero Avion, I think. He got me the picture off a pack of cards, and I did FBCT for the first time. It was a chocolate cake with store-bought chocolate icing, which I did not like working with, that stuff is so hard to get smooth, and when I finally did, I messed it up when I put on the FBCT. The transfer was off-center, but that actually worked out, gave me room to put 14 candles. I will do FBCT again.

Floral
I learned a lot of lessons on this cake. There was too much decoration, or I overdid it or something, because the icing fell as the cake was cut! LOL I saw this design somewhere and loved it, just need to perfect it. Also, the writing was pretty spotty, but everyone loved the cake..... goes to show that others don't see the mistakes, just the pretty cake.

Lightning Mcqueen
This is my son's birthday cake. He is so easy, always chooses a simple cake, although I didn't do very well on this, did I? But he loved it. His birthday was all about that movie, we went to see the movie, had lunch at McDonald's where they were having the Cars promo, and then had a Cars themed birthday party. It was fun.
