Black And Gold Graduation Cake
School colors -black and gold- 10-8-6 -inches. Really trying to be creative and get "cleaner" cakes- still need much more practice. I din't know about anyone else but, everything takes me so long-- ugh!! And I never seem to ave what I need. I aways have to buy things o make a cake and/or search through my many boxes and bins for it-- so aggravating.

Pouring Beer Mug
This is the first type of cake I have made like this- The thing I LOVE about this cake is the "bar top"-- I totally McGuyver'd that!! I cut a pool noodle and attached it to foam core- covered it in dark brown fondant and used a 50/50 corn syrup and vodka for the high gloss finish- leveled the top by adding cut pieces of foam core to the other side of the bar-- it really looked real!!! I used 1/4-in copper for the stream of beer- 4 6-inch cakes doweled through the center and tea straws in bottom tier for support- fondant and buttercream finishes (bottle is real). The color was a little off- the beer has a little more orange tinge to it-- the color really disappointed me-- it looks more like a root beer float than a beer- :(

Gone Fishin' Retirement Cake
A striped bass retirement cake -- choc cake- 9x13 carved- LMF fondant- hand painted and dusted. I'm thrilled with the way this cake turned out-- carving is not my thing-- so I found it challenging- I did use pics online as a guide as I had no idea what a striped bass looked like!! Ha--Thank you to Tinazzzviking74 on CC for her guidance and support. It was also the first time I ade and used LMF fondant-- which I LOVE!!!!

Monsters Inc. Baby Shower Cake
8in square and 6in round- buttercream and fondant/gum paste decorations- -- Mike is styro covered in fondant-- the original Mike was RKT but he was not big enough- so thankfully at 2am I found some styro at the bottom of one of my many storage boxes!! Whew- that was a stroke of luck! Cupcakes were completed 10 minutes before pick- up. Wish I had had a little more time! Thank you to all those who have posted Monster Inc. cake photos- they were certainly my inspiration - ooh there is a surprise inside-- colored cake circles (blue green purple) hope that works out when they cut it- ha!!! Thanks for looking - :)

Out Of This World
My friend's daughter asked me to make a cake for her Science Teacher - the students were throwing him a party just because they feel - he is "out if this world" - how great is that? The dome is a 7-11 slurpee top- I wish I could say I was that creative but I remember seeing it somewhere a long time ago. I wish I had jazzed this up with a little more jewels etc--
