Simple Wasc Wedding Cake
This was for my daughters wedding, I needed soemthing simple that would feed 300 guests and this fit perfectly. I used the Wilton tall teir stand. The layers are 14, 12 10 and 8 and I had 2 sattelite cakes that were 14 round and 12 round (served from the kitchen). Thanks so much to chefcindy for all of her help, I could not have done this cake without her. This cake is not as pretty as her avatar cake, but my daughter loved it and that's what really counts. thanks chefcindy!

My First Wedding Cake
I made this for my daughters wedding. Each layer was a different flavor and filling. Each side cake was also different flavor. I made 4 extra cakes like the side cakes to fill in. Main cake was 12inch, 9 inch and 6inch, the side cakes were 10 inch. I needed enough cake for 350 guests. This was an ivory colored wedding cake with burgundy ribbon. The cake stand had lights underneath it, so it was very pretty in the evening when it was lit.

Daughters Bridal Shower Cake
White cake with strawberry filing, second layer lemon with raspberry filing and top layer yellow cake with chocolate ganache filling. I traveled 2 hours with this already stacked and boxed, the temp was 105 outside! Yes, I know I am brave. It survived the trip just fine. This was a trial for her wedding cake in Sept. This is the second 3 tiered cake I have ever done.

Fondant Bow
This is my first attempt at a fondant bow. I tried airbrushing the fondant. YIKES, it doesn't work. It was a learning experience. I will be making this same bow in a couple of weeks for a shower cake, next time I I will knead the color into the fondant. I was practicing both the bow and the cake. The cake recipe was a scratch chooclate, with chocolate ganche filling. It tasted awesome!

Dora Cake
this was my first attempt at a character cake. I was so proud making it for my granddauthers 3rd b-day. When I finished I asked her how she liked it and she said to me Dors doesn't wear red shorts, there are supoossed to be ORANGE (lol) So I took off the red and made them orange. So much for following the pan instructions. (someone should let Wilton know)

First Stacked 3 Tier Cake
This was my first attempt at stacking. I traveled with this already stacked, the tep. was 94 degrees outside, but had the van cooled before transporting. It was for my grandmothers 90th birthday party. All white cake with bavarian filling in one layer, lemon in another and the bottom layer had strawberry filling. I see room for lots of improvment before my daughters wedding cake in Sept. This was a "tril cake" for me. The frosting was all ivory buttercreme.
