I made this for my sisters best friend. The grooms parents used the same topper for their wedding cake 35 years ago. The whole wedding had a very 'classic' feel to it. Everything was so elegant!
Fondant covered cake, ribbon and crystal butterflies. The top tier had quite the lean to it unfortunately.. I levelled the cakes but didn't notice the lean til it was set up at the hall. I guess I really should get a small level. I tried propping the layer up but nothing would work. Other than that, I'm happy with this one! Thanks for looking!
I borrowed this idea from laneycake, her's is just gorgeous! BC with fondant dress & flowers.
Not the greatest picture, but my camera died so I had to borrow the pic from a friend. I got this idea off of a few cakes here on CC. BC, fondant waterfall, RI flowers. I attempted RI palm trees for the second time and needless to say they once again did not make it on the cake.
Fondant with satin ribbon and fresh flowers.
This was my first 'real' wedding cake.. I had made one before but it was a dummy cake. Despite my best efforts, and quite a bit of time.. the fondant still turned out wrinkly in parts. Any suggestions? I had the cake sitting on a cake board the same size, and placed on something smaller (ex. crisco container) but still ended up with wrinkles. And like every cake I've done before.. I know what I would do differently next time. Definately room for improvement, but all in all I'm happy with it!
I got this idea from krstik. Hers is soooo much better. Mine never seem to turn out like the pictures :) The grass reeds were supposed to be longer, which would've helped with the overall appearance, but after 2 days they still weren't dry enough to stand up.. they kept wilting, so I had to cut them down. Either way, the birthday boy Loved it.. as did his parents.
I got this idea from lilmansmum. I found working with the chocolate a pain. Had a hard time not marking it up, which I find made it look a bit sloppy.
I'll be making a cake similar to this for an upcoming wedding.
One of my first square cakes.. need to work on sharper edges. This was just a quick cake for a friend's small baby shower.
I made this cake back in November, and was really happy with it at the time.. although looking back on the picture, the actual fairy is wayyyy too small for the size of the wings. Oh well.. lesson learned for next time. I got this idea from murf (hers is Gorgeous!). This was made for a memorial.. my sister's good friend lost her daughter to cancer, and wanted to do something on the one year anniversary. Her nickname was Princess Zoe and she loved fairies and the colour pink.
Inspiration for this cake from kimsconfections, thank you!! The flash bleached out the baby's head a bit so you can't see much detail, but I think this is my new favourite cake! And nothing went wrong with it!! No disasters which is always a plus :)
My cousin found a cake with this design here on CC, however I'm not sure who it was so can't credit the design. Thank you though!
Made this for a Halloween party. Used Wilton's Black Colour mist, and after a whole can, this is the colour I got. Fondant cross & maggots. Cake crumbs as 'dirt'. Thanks for looking!
This was my first wedding cake. A dummy covered in fondant and RI scrolls. Thanks to Gracefull for the inspiration.
This was for my dad's birthday. Inspiration from Antonia74, thank you! I used the Mckay tartan which is what our last name is under.
Guinness for my Dad-in-law's birthday. This cake was really easy to make. I'm finally starting to get the hang of fondant. I have a long way to go but I'm getting there!
Grasshopper holding a Mary Kay bag for a friend's birthday. Thanks to Doug for his help!
I'm making a cake similar to this for my cousins wedding in Sept. This is my first attempt at scrolls and ribbon on cake. I've learned a couple things for next time.. luckily I have a couple months. Her cake will be red, I just had yellow ribbon on hand.
This is my mom's favourite drink, which they discontinued so she went and bought 50 cases of the stuff. We're always making jokes about her hundreds of bottles of the stuff she has. I didn't do much detail work, ran out of time.
Still working on the writing..
I made this for my best friend's birthday. I got the idea off of CC. Wondermold pan for the body, rice krispies for the head.
I got this idea from hockeygirl658. This was my first attempt at a sculpted cake. It actually turned out a lot better than I had thought. I was not holding out much hope for my sculpting skills. It's far from perfect, but I'm pleased with it anyway.
I got this idea from Euphoriabakery. Thank you so much! This was a lot of fun to make.
This was my first paid order from someone other than family/friends!! I was so excited.
I got this idea off of the Wilton website. I tried to find who made it originally, but can't seem to locate them. Thank you for the idea! If I come across it again, I'll be sure to update who's idea it is.
