Beach Themed Cake With Lighthouse
This was for a friend who loves lighthouses. I wanted to make a 3-D lighthouse for the top, but the cake had to travel a bit far, and I was afraid of a disaster! Cake is a 2 tier 8 layer cake, all buttercream. Molded candy sea critters, shells, and piers. Malted crisps for sand, and (store-bought) jellybean candy rocks.

Baby Shower Cake With Teddy Bear Theme
The design and colors for this cake was to match the invitations for the shower. I couldn't seem to keep my gumpaste teddies from drooping, so I ended up making them out of clay! HA!HA!! Oh well! Top tier is vanilla with almond b/c, bottom is vanilla with choc. b/c

Green Monster Cupcakes!!
These are some monster cupcakes I made (last minute of course!) for my son's Kindergarten class. I made them all green to save time, but wanted the faces to be different...used M&M's, marshmallows, candy corn, and Twizzlers for decorations. My husband decided to try his hand at a few too! ;)

Frog Prince Bridal Shower Cake
Yellow layer cake with buttercream, covered in fondant. Frog Prince is painted with shimmer dust, and balls are dusted with it too. I added the gummy frogs because I ran out of time! I was planning to make some flies out of gumpaste, and suspend them from floral wire. Oh Well.

R2D2
This was my first cake for a non-family member. The bottom cake is a plain vanilla sheet cake sprayed with blue and dusted with glitter. For R2D2, I used a tombstone-shaped "Over the Hill" cake pan. Then I outlined the details for R2D2 with black gel. All buttercream frosting...I smoothed the frosting on R2's head, and painted it with silver and moonstone luster dust. I used a picture of R2D2 as a reference, since the details on most of the cake instructions aren't as accurate. And kids will notice :)
