Mini Wedding Cake
this was my first of many things. first stacking of a cake not covered in fondant, first time making a mini cake that by the way is way more hard to ice than a regular size cake and first time doing to loops. i wasnt making it for any one so i was not putting 100 % effort into it. but it was cute.

Super Dave's Last Day
A manager of a restaurant ordered a cake for one of his managers last day tomorrow. It is one of those cakes where its all random but the recipient will completely get it. The decor is half fondant and half gumpaste. The girl represents the guys baby grand daughter that he talks about all the time. the coffee mug with the store logo on it is because he has his coffee with him at all times. he is a chain smoker, the ensure is because the buyer of the cake always makes fun of him having creaking bones when he has to bend down and tells him he needs ensure, and one of the most annoying employees at the store always refers to Dave as Super Dave and dave hates it. The cake is the chocolate fudge version of "durable for 3d and wedding cake" with the crumb boss fudge icing between the layers and coated with buttercream dream buttercream ( with high ratio shortening) the fondnat is home made with marshmallows. the baby hs ialf gumpaste and half fondant.

Lego Kai Ninjago Cake
My first carved cake with home made marshmallow fondant. I was worried about covering the carved cake with fondant. had only covered round cakes but it turned out pretty good. better than the picture of the cake my friend had given me. he has legos around him too made of cake. ( would have done them in rice krispy to get the squared look but she wanted them in cake.

I used the tools out of the wilton gumpaste flower starter kit. it had a cut out for it and a book with directions. what am i doing wrong

My First Ever 2 Tier Cake
I made my own gender party cake ( other than having a friend fill it so i get the suprise too) first time ever making a two tier cake and my second time working with fondant. ( first time using the special rolling mat i bought online. it turned out pretty good. i dont like how the tiers are pretty close to the same size and ti dont like the blocks not sure what i did wrong maybe it is cause i didnt put then on mini cake boards so the were sagging im not sure but i wanted them much more square. but in generall it turned out pretty good
