Fuschia & Brown Wedding Cake
This cake was made purely out of love - and I couldn't pass up the challenge! My cousin was getting married and I offered to do the cake as my gift. Then they told me they wanted to feed 280 people!! I still accepted. I live in BC, Canada and the wedding was 3 provinces over in Manitoba. That's halfway across the country. I brought all my dry ingredients and a huge plastic tote of supplies, and bought my eggs, milk, etc. there. We were staying at my Aunt's Bed & Breakfast so I got to use the kitchen. There were also 120 cupcakes to go with the cake to give enough servings. I had so much fun making this cake and on the day I was doing the cupcakes some of my cousins pitched in and we had quite the team going. The cake is 4", 6", 8", 10" & 12" tiers covered in MMF with RI piping, gumpaste roses (which I made at home and packaged very carefully for the long roadtrip), fabric ribbon borders and Swarovski crystal seashell drops on top. There are also crystal accents around the roses but they are hard to see in the photo.

Tree With Carved Initials
I designed this cake based on the couple's wedding invite shown in the photo. Tree is RKT covered in 50/50 modeling chocolate & fondant, with fondant/gumpaste leaves attached to wires and inserted into tree trunk. Everything else on cake is fondant and/or gumpaste. I was not commissioned to do the wedding cake but the bride told me she loved the tree so much that she's using it as the topper on their wedding cake!

Alice In Wonderland
I made this for the Cake Walk at my daughter's school Fun Fair. The organizing committee did not want to just give it away so they put it in the silent auction! Inspired by several cakes I saw online. All MMF, some with tylose. Alice is gumpaste/fondant.. Grass is buttercream. Tail is RKT.
