This cake was for a bridal shower for a woman who works at the University of Louisville Library and was having a shower in a hall called the library. Her "desk" has objects on it that have meaning to her including her proposal photo in the large chocolate frame. The open book is a chocolate cake with vanilla bean buttercream and the bottom layer is a simple vanilla bean pound cake with vanilla bean buttercream. The cakes are covered in fondant, as is the cake board. All of the frames are chcocolate with photo icing sheet pictures, the Eiffel Tower paper weight is chocolate too and the other items are photo icing backed with gumpaste. There are sugar diamonds along with gumpaste heart sprinkles.

I was dying to try the edible images on cookies and Valentines Day seemed the perfect reason. I was happy with the cookies (chocolate). Edged in Royal and painted lightly with "Old Gold" to go with the vintage feel. I had a very hard time with a new royal icing recipe I tried. It had a little corn syrup in it and it just would not pipe nicely no matter what....going back to old stand by for sure! I did a few other designs as well. TFL!
My poor cake had to travel 7 hours home with heat. It started to droop along the bottom. I guess it could have been worse. I did this cake at an Andrea Sullivan class in Canada. Had a great time and learned a few things. Will be going back for sure!
This cake was done for my father who is a pilot. He is accompanied in flight by Weimaraner co-pilot Teague. It is all cake except topper which is fondant with tylose and marzipan face. Two six inch rounds stacked and topped with a 6" half sphere. All atop a free style cake hill. Cake was covered in fondant. Areas were dusted with pearl dust. Swirls were pressed in with fondant tool and then painted over with pearl dust and vodka.
This is my first pillow cake. So excited to finally have one under my belt! Chocolate butter cake with cookies and cream filling. Fondant covered and decorated with fondant/gumpaste decor. This was so hard to photograph as you can not see everything in the photo. There are items tucked under the pillow (flowers, pearls and "spiral springs"). I also stamped the cake board with sayings like make a wish and Happy Birthday along with hearts and flowers. There was also a crown that went with this cake but it was not photographed. I am hoping to get a copy from the birthday girls Mommy!!
Barrel cake (6" W x 8" H) iced in butter cream with fondant and buttercream accents. Hand rolled pearls.
Three tiered cake for a 50s themed birthday10", 8" and 5" plus extra tall. "Sequinned" poodle on a leash. In my mind I thought this would be a super cute idea and easily accomplished but boy was I wrong. The leash took forever to glue to the cake and left me scratching my head as to why I did not just use royal icing!!!!!

Sheet cake with buttercream and fondant/gumpaste decor
This was a birthday cake for my husband who owns a plumbing business. All cake and edible with exception of support (toilet and tank bottom, water spout center and cake plate). Fondant over buttercream with fondant/gumpaste decorations and edible image magazines. Had fun designing and making this one...did not want the same old toilet cake. This was just under 2 1/2 feet tall!
Butter cream with fondant/gumpaste decorations. Letters all done on the cricut. I actually tried to shape both of these cakes mad hatter style but once iced you could barely tell. I ran into a "buttercream nightmare" while stacking ...and there was no fixing it; so it is missing a 2 x 8 center tier. It also had to ride for an hour on my lap an at the moment I got in the car, it dawned on me that I had forgot the support straws on the bottom layer. There was only one dowl straight through the center and anchored in the cake board. IT MADE IT THOUGH!! YAAAY!! Jess loved it and in the end that is all that counts!
Buttercream cake with fondant/tylose accents. Bottom border was cut with the Cricut using artwork provided on cartridge (Still experimenting with fondant/gumpaste mixtures to get better cuts as well as using Make the Cut to produce my own graphics). Birthday tag was made in Corel Draw and printed on edible icing sheets backed with fondant/tylose. Spice cake with cardamom, iced with vanilla buttercream
My first topsy turvy with 10s and 6s. Yes, there are a few mistakes but it was so fun (but difficult in spots) to decorate. Now to master the mad hatter topsy turvy! Fondant over buttercream, fondant and fondant with tylose decorations. TFL
