Toy Story Moon Cake
The moon is half styrofoam and half chocolate cake with buttercream icing. I cut an 8" styrofoam ball in half, glued it to the cake board, covered in plastic wrap and attached a half ball cake (baked in pyrex glass dish) to the top, iced the whole thing in buttercream. Buzz is a toy and the flag is paper. I made the "7" from gumpaste. The mini cupcakes are chocolate and are coated with green-tinted white chocolate with fondant accents (eyes, ears, mouth). Thanks for the info on CC on how to make a sphere cake!

Baby Shower Cake Pops
Thanks to CC members...I read through the entire Cake Ball thread over the course of 3 days and learned everything I needed to know (and more!) about them. This is my first attempt for my friend's baby shower. They were a huge hit. Thanks to everyone who contributed to that thread.

Darth Vader Cake
Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream died black. Fondant flames. Darth Vader is supported with a fat straw through his right leg (and into the cake) and made of cereal treats and gumpaste. The cape was done by covering a toy Darth Vader's cape with plastic wrap and then draping gumpaste over it and letting it dry overnight. The light saber is a lollipop stick coated in red royal icing. This cake was for my son's 4th birthday. Thanks for looking!

This dinosaur cake was made with a few supports and I detail the making of it on my blog. Chocolate cake body (carved from 9" rounds) and the tail, neck and face are molded cereal treats. The entire dinosaur is iced in vanilla buttercream, and the face and facial features are fondant. The rocks and leaves are fondant.

Owl Cake
This cake (chocolate with vanilla buttercream) was for a Woodland themed party, and was designed to match the invitation and party decor. The owl is cereal treats covered in gumpaste and the cake is covered in fondant with fondant accents. The "smash cake" is covered in buttercream, and designed to complement the main cake.
