My First Traditional
This was my first traditional wedding cake. Very basic white cake with bc but all my time was put into making the 45 roses. This was my first attempt at making gum paste roses and I was very happy with the results. Also happy with the airbrush technique on the flowers and leaves. Oh, and I love the SPS system!

Mosaic
This was my first attempt at a mosaic pattern. This is carrot cake with cream cheese filling and a crusting cream cheese icing. All of the cutouts and medallions are made out of modeling chocolate, also my first time using. I like the modeling chocolate, you just have to keep putting it back in the fridge or it gets too soft.

First Grad Cake
This was my best attept so far at a stacked cake. Red velvet with cream cheese filling on bottom and vanilla on vanilla on the top. All covered in buttercream with royal icing piping, fondant numbers and diploma, and gumpaste cap. Oh and if anyone is wondering, the black royal icing did not run on the buttercream even after it was refridgerated.

Veggie Garden
I made this cake for my boss's wife for her birthday/mother's day. She eats totally organic and vegetarian so she started her own garden. She also stays away from sugar but has wanted to try one of my cakes for a while now. Her husband thought this would be the perfect time. The fence is gumpaste/fondant mix and the veggies are all fondant. The pathway is just graham cracker crumbs and the soil is chocolate cookies without the cream filling to keep it dark. It's always nice when a cake turns out nice especially when it is something you havn't tried before.

My First Wedding Cake
The cake is peanut butter and chocolate fudge swirl with peanut butter cream filling covered in fondant with gumpaste daisies. The cupcakes are fudge and white covered in vanilla buttercream with fondant daisies. The fondant daisies and the whole cake are airbrushed with a white pearl that doesn't show up in photo's unfortunatly.
