Katie's 3Rd Birthday Cake
Three 9" rounds in buttercream. I had some cake trouble and ended up running out of time on the towers. I used pink marshmallows on skewers stuck into a cupcake on top for the towers instead of the rice krispie treats. Turrets are ice cream cones covered in white choocoalte and dipped in pink sprinkles. Mini roses are made from starbursts.

Easter Basket
9" WASC with all buttercream. My first attempt at a basket weave and rope border with nearly no practice...obviously! (I saw a pic of this type of basket weave in Dede Wilson's book Wedding Cakes You Can Make) Also not used to new KA and icing is too fluffy! Green tinted coconut grass, malted milk speckled eggs, flower cupcake piks and the cutest chocolate bunny I could find. I wanted to make a handle from RI but didn't take the time. Still pleased with how it turned out anyway.

Lindsey's Housewarming
I made this for my sister and her family who just bought their first home. 8" square White Almond sprinkle cake. Pink raspberry buttercream, vanilla Pirouline type cookies. Cake balls (white almond party cake with lemon cream cheese icing thinned for binding and dipped in white chocolate) piled on top. Ribbon roses are white chocolate candy clay mixed with mmf. Leaves are mmf.

Free As A Butterfly
My first FBCT. It's a retirement cake for my grandmother (who always made my birthday cakes growing up) She still makes cakes for everyone and now I am too! Its a 9" round chocolate almond with all vanilla BC. Had trouble crumb coating and got a little messy. Lots of flaws, still a beginner, but I've come a long way. Still learning to pipe!
