Ice Cream Cone Cake
Kudos and thanks to Brooke420 who so graciously shared her technique with all of us on CC for this cake!! Cake board is 1/2" plywood cut in a 20" circle, metal flange is screwed in from the bottom and I used rubber door stops as "feet" to make it easier to pick up and move the cake. Cone is a 9" styrofoam cone covered in textured fondant - a metal threaded 8" pipe runs through it into the flange and a PVC connector extends PVC pipe beyond that height, into the cake layers. I used 6" round cake with half ball pan on top for bottom two tiers and a 5" pan with a Pyrex bowl for the top tier. Cake is buttercream covered with ganache and sprinkle and fondant cherry on top

3-D Shark Cake
Large bottom cake (4 cake mixes) with sculpted shark on top. Used the 3-D Egg Pan for the basic shape and then added to it for the bottom jaw and rest of the back end. I ended up using rice krispie treat mix to sculpt the whole thing and it was a huge success, and a little lighter than dense cake. The kids loved it to and wanted both cake and krispie treat on their plate! Everything was white buttercream and I used the color mist in black, blue and red for the first time! Thanks to kitagrl for inspiration!
