Blue Brush Embroidery
I tried to get the bride to use another color scheme, even navy blue, but this is what she wanted. Simple and chic. She and her husband are Florida Gator fans, so it works for them. Top & bottom tier are champagne & strawberry, middle tier is white chocolate raspberry. Edible gerbera daisies.

Tackle Box
Took inspiration from several versions of this cake. This was a last minute birthday cake, red velvet and cream cheese icing. Covered in fondant with all fondant accents except for hooks. They were gumpaste. Wooden planks are also fondant. Only after finishing did I realize the box is backwards - hinges where latch should be and vice versa. Please learn from my mistake - don't try to argue with your husband and finish a cake at the same time

Beach Wedding Cake
5 Tier, 3 Flavor wedding cake in a beach/coral theme. Flavors included champagne cake with strawberry filling, choc/mint cake with choc ganache filling and lemon cake with lemon curd filling. I made all the shells from white chocolate. The beach 'sand' on table is a mixture of white and brown sugar.

Monkey And Bananas
Thanks to Mezzaluna for inspiration! I ended up putting more bananas on this one after this photo was taken in order to cover the blank areas. Used about 150 hand rolled fondant bananas. Cake was 6" stacked, banana and cherry batters (swirled), cherry mousse filling, banana buttercream.

Belly Dancer
This is for my husband's birthday today. He's at work and knows he's getting a cake, but doesn't know what it will be. I baked, filled, carved, and iced it yesterday and decorated it today in about 3.5 hours. I wish I had a day or two to decorate it so I could pipe lush fringe, use glitters and shimmers and luster dusts, hard candy jewels, etc. Princess cake with cherry mousse filling.

Cave Diver Cake
A friend wanted me to do a cake for her boyfriend, a cave diver. I received some inspiration from fellow cc'ers and this is what I came up with. The birthday boy never cut this cake. To my knowledge, it's still decaying, on display somewhere in his kitchen! Other views/closeups are in my photos
