Foxy First Birthday

For my cousin's baby's first birthday. His middle name is Fox. So cute.

Pug Finds A Home

My beautiful friend who is the foster parent to three different children asked me to make a kid for her eldest daughters 15th birthday. Her daughter had never had a birthday or a birthday cake. Her daughter has a predisposition to rescuing abandoned animals. Although she does not have a pug she would love to own one, one day. She was very overwhelmed to receive this cake. I am happy to have been a part of it.

Kelly's Minion Cake

For my lovely minion obsessed cousin to help celebrate her 35th birthday

Elegant Baby Shower

I wanted to make a cake as elegant as the mum to be. I have long wanted to make a white flower with gold detailing so here it is. It is halfway between a magnolia and a peony. The cake was a test cake and it was a success according to the comments at the party. The recipe is a vintage American recipe called "Old Vermont Burnt Sugar Cake with Maple Cream Cheese frosting" from Baker & Spice's 'Vintage Cakes'.

Rock Climbing Wedding Cake

My first ever wedding cake. The theme was rock climbing and they wanted it to look like a wedding cake!!. The groom was also competing in the Iron Man challenge the week before the wedding so they wanted his bike and the Iron Man logo included. I was so very pleased with how the cake turned out. It was my first attempt at draping, piping, bike, and adult figures. A big thanks to Carlos Lichetti's book "Animation in Sugar" I literally could not have made those figures without that book. The tiers were 6, 9, 12".

Lucy's 1St Birthday Bunting Cake

This is one of the sweetest cakes I have made. I had been waiting to do a bunting cake and I seized my opportunity. The colours came from the invitation and I had a fun time making the bunting and little hearts. Happy 1st Birthday Lucy.

One Direction Ipod

I'll say straight up that this cake design was supplied to me by my friend who found it on the internet - so I don't know who to credit. I made a few changes but I am most impressed with my design for the board. A great way to use up small quantities of fondant from a previous project. My friends daughter LOVES One Direction and pink iPod's!

Jack's Minecraft 21St

I made this small 4" cake for my partner's best friend's birthday. It was pretty quick but I'm pretty happy with it. And I have tonnes of left over grass squares. The two of them spend hours playing Minecraft and i thought the pig was very cute.

Baby Shower Elephant

I have waited a long time to make a confetti decorated cake. I have also been waiting a long time to use a tutorial by Sharon Wee for this adorable little elephant.

Abby's Birthday

This cake is the result of some info from the boyfriend and a hell of a lot of Pintrest stalking! It has provided mixed reactions from friends and family. But the birthday girl loved it and that's the main thing. Abby has a wonderful boyfriend and best friend who ordered the cake from me :)

Lottie's First Birthday

My niece Lotties first birthday party. Lady bird themed. Cake was 10", 7", 4"; Mud, banana, vanilla with SMBC. yum

Edward And Jacobs First Fishy Birthday

These not so little cakes were made for my friends twin boys. The theme of the party was fish and the two fish i hand painted for the cake were based on the invitation. This was a first attempt at hand painting gum paste. The cakes were banana cake and carrot cake both with cream cheese filling. Lessons learnt. Do not decorate cakes on 41 degree days - Slip slidey. Check the route to the venue does not have a series of 45degree hills all the way there :(

Leah's Bub

My friend Leah is about to have her first baby and I made a cake for her baby shower. The cake is really a few different designs that I wanted to try. I have adored all the ruffle cakes cake so i had to try that. I loved the idea of a baby in a flower, Anne Geddes style. And the thought of a swam of butterflies made my heart melt. So here they are - all in one design. The cake was mud with coconut white chocolate ganache filling and buttercream covered in fondant. So much sugar!!

Nintendo For Joe (Joetendo)

My partner requested a 21st birthday cake and he chose the classic Nintendo. I was a little dubious about if i could manage the cake but i am very pleased with how it turned out (and so was he!)

Rubik's Cube Cake

This cake was for my partners 21st birthday. He recently mastered the Rubik's cube in under 2 minutes. The cake was two tier to allow for more serves. It was a nightmare with the black fondant tearing. I eventually had to resort to a white fondant coat then a strip of black over the front, top and back, then two panels on either side. Not much joy cutting out the squares either. All in all, it is not too bad. I have the so much respect for people who manage to do graphic/technical cakes.

Mother's Day

I made this little cake for my mum. It was my first go at roses and i was so happy with them. The cake was a small 4" and 7" mud.

Nanananananananana Batman

My cousin asked me to make a Batman cake for her little boy's birthday. The kids loved it. They had a batman candle they added to the top and batman carried the cake into the party!

Spongebob Squarepants

My sister was turning 32 and I made this cake as a surprise. She was surprised. She loved it! I think little Gary was my favourite part.

Las Vegas Baby Shower

My close friend is having baby twins. A girl and a boy. She is not a real girly-girl but she does love Vegas. Her and her mum travel there nearly every year from Australia. The always go to the fab shows and the gaming lounges. This is my tribute to her. A little Elvis and a little showgirl. The cakes are chocolate mud.

Soccer Cake

My sister asked me to make a cake for her partner at very short notice. This was my first attempt at a soccer ball and at a ball shaped cake. Very happy with how it turned out. And loved that the internet has the template for the soccer ball pattern.

Goodies V Baddies

My friend asked me to make an Iron Man cake for his 30th birthday and it kind of grew from there. It was a costume party and no guessing what the birthday boy went as! (it was Iron Man). All layers were chocolate mud cake with layer filling alternating between Coconut White Choc ganache and Peppermint Milk Choc ganache. And thanks to candygirl_82 whose batman and joker formed the start of this cake!

Mexican Fiesta 30Th

I have only started cake decorating and I spent three months planning and creating the decorations for this beast. My birthday party theme was mexico! And i have a cactus collection. So, heaven! This was my first tiered cake. I had baked and frozen the cakes and took the Friday off work to decorate it. I was up until 3am! and by the time i went to bed a had nearly broken my wrist with all the kneading. I had to strap my wrist right up until the party started the next night. Lesson: colour fondant ahead of time. All tiers are red velvet with cream cheese filling, fondant covered with fondant and gumpaste decorations.

Super Mario

One of my first buttercream cakes. It was supposed to be piped but the buttercream was a nightmare so i ended up smearing the buttercream in a more 'painterly' manner.
