Versace shoe box, versace logo bag, and shoe. Everything is cake, except the shoe. Favorite colors of client were green and silver, hence the colors. Logos are silver colored white chocolate.
I made this cake for my brother you got his Master's Degree and my mom for Mother's Day. We don't eat a lot of cake in the family, and the occasions fell a day apart, so I made a joint cake. Came out pretty well, I think. "Topper" and writing are all chocolate, everything else is whipped topping. There's also a picture in my album of the side view, if you're curious.
Baby shower cake with fondant accents. The bow is fondant and put together with candy melts, and the buttons were all handmade with fondant. Dusted with pearl luster dust. The invites had buttons, as well as the table confetti, so it was fun to match the cake with everything. Thanks to everyone who told me how to make the buttons!
This was a cake for boy/girl twins 1st birthday. The trains/tracks are plastic and the drum sticks are lollipop sticks with gumballs stuck on the end. Everything else is buttercream except the little flowers which are fondant.
Square cake in the shape of a present. The bow and gift tag are made of chocolate, everything else is buttercream.
Chocolate cake, chocolate buttercream, chocolate ganache with a chocolate bow and fondant accents.
chocolate cake with coconut and raspberry filling (I just make 'em folks :) )and chocolate ganache on top. Bride's colors were dark purple and red, hence the decor. SHe had these really cool curly "plants" in her bouquets, and you can see some on the cake, that matched really well with the scroll work. Not my favorite color combo, but my favorite design.
Yellow cake with IMBC and freehand scroll work. Her flowers were cool because they had little gold bead accents coming out of them, and the tips of the rose petals and the leaves were painted gold. I had a long talk with the bride and florist about food safety, but after signing a waiver, I put them on the cake. I thought it looked cool, but I would be a little weary about eating the top tier.
Chocolate cake with IMBC with fresh flowers and fondant ribbon in a "mushroom" color.
I love the couple on this cake. It was the groom's grandparents' topper, and I just loved it. Fondant cake with fondant lace and buttercream pearls.
This was the worst cake I have ever done. It was supposed to replicate a martha stewart ruffles and pleats cake, and I think I did a horrible job. I didn't get any complaints, but I went home that day feeling horrible. I couldn't get the pleats to look right or stay straight and the ruffle was giving me a hard time. Again, I know we're our worst critics, but I can't stand this cake. Just thought I would share, so if you have any tips on what I could have done differently, please feel free to share.
Apparently this cake is pretty popular this year, third one I've done in the past two months. I think it was in the Knot magazine, I'll have to check. The ribbon was a pain in the @#$ to tie, and as you can see it's not straight. Rolled fondant, with real flowers.
Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and chocolate ganache. Tuxedo strawberries on top, and chocolate buttercream border.
Another surprise birthday. Just given the kind of cake and icing, and free reign on the rest. For a 75 year old grandmother, so I liked the purple. I love chocolate transfer bows!
Fondant Bow (which hadn't completely dried), but turned out ok. Like the color combo though, for a 50th surprise birthday.
Buttercream icing with fresh flower decor. Like the choice of flowers...not the usual roses, or the usual colors
buttercream icing with fresh flowers decor
Buttercream icing, with piped chocolate ganache decor. I piped the N directly on the cake, and used fresh roses on top.
Bride brought a picture in, I really like this design. Simple, yet elegant. I liked the monogram on top too...She wanted large borders, but I think that small ones would look good next time.
Buttercream with chocolate bow and buttercream decor.
Covered in yellow fondant, with gumpaste butterflies and flowers. Accented in gold, but bride accidentally bought a silver monogram. Looked pretty good though.
75th Birthday for a guy. No theme, simple cake to cut at dinner.
Fondant covered with fondant lace. Needs something on top, I think, but they didn't. Lace was difficult at first, but once you get the hang of it, it go easier
Fondant Covered cake with pink satin ribbon and fresh flowers. The bride specifically wanted all those flowers, otherwise I probably would have just gone with the top.
Chocolate cake, buttercream icing, with large marzipan fruits. Found the fruits at World Market.
Buttercream icing, with real ribbon around each tier, and fresh flowers.
