Being a K- state fan, this was a challenge... He has a wood frame, covered with rice krispies on the bottom half and cake, obviously, on the top. It made for an easy split on flavors, his head was one and the body was the other. Then good old fondant. all the feathers were a lot of fun to cut out and attach individually with a leaf cutter, but it looks a lot better, i think.
He stands about thirty inches tall and his hands were about four feet apart at the cakes. his head was made with a ten inch, three layer cake. the cakes in his hands are six inches. His arms curve forward as well as out... you cant tell in this picture. ridiculous amount of starring but he turned out pretty well. He has a wood frame that is attached to the base and covered in rice krispies. His arms are made of steel wrapped with rice krispies and gum paste, his hands and fingers are of wood as well.
this is a replica of the customers own sportster fuel tank. its done all in mmf, the scallops were a bit of a trick to get on it, but i like the way they turned out... except for the cap which is gumpaste. oh and the cake was lemon creamsicle, which i highly recomend.
He turned out way bigger than i anticipated... but you only turn two once, right? His arms, head, and tracks are made of paperstone, which is a recycled paper product used for making countertops. The rest of him is mainly foam build up, with two big squares of cake at the top. then mmf and i got a little carried away with the air brush, i was hoping to get a chance to make it again in order to get a little better at it, but i really couldnt wait to show it off... oh and he holds my heavyweight title, coming in at 76 pounds.
A cake for a garden party. i sued mmf and gumpaste for the stalk... and yes it is carrot cake. ha ha
She was for a 2 year olds birthday. i had trouble with the rice krispies sticking to the frame, but she turned out all right in the end... lots of starring.
just a simple flower shaped cake topped with a mmf flower and butterfiy.
this was a cake for a father/ son cake contest. we took first in our age group!
this is another one of my first cakes. i freehanded the flames on to it with buttercream and then filled them in using the same.
this is one of the first cakes i made. it was for a birthday. now i cant remember wha tkind of roses i was trying to imitate... but i thought the coloring of them came out well with the buttercream
my eleven year old son made this cake for a school project on the great wall of china. the wall and the people are mmf and he did the color touch up with an airbrush.
this was for my youngest son's first brithday. it is a small bear cake mold that i starred to to make into the shape it is in now.
i used red mmf and then airbrushed the black on. the eyes are made with luster dust. and the webbing is buttercream.
i made this by stacking four inch cakes up as high as i dared... it took alot of straws. i wish i could have got them a little smoother but it was short notice...
this is just another version of a cake i did awhile back. this time i used mmf this time instead of frosting. it certainly makes it easier to make the details. the colors did turn out very well in the pictures but it looked good in person... it is a three layer cake on a corian base. the rotor blades are also made of corian. the rotors turn and it will roll around on its wheels.
two tier cake. the lower jaw is made of gumpaste and the teeth are colorflow. i was tricky getting the jaw to stay in place draping the fondant of the whole thing at once and then cutting the mouth opening really worked well for smoothing the jawline out.
this is just a first try at the topsy-turvy. didnt get very high... but i thought the lace effect looked good to show here. the idea came from a car i had seen at a show.
Her dress is cut from a six layer eight inch round cake, and frosted with buttercream. her top is made from fondant.

The base for the cake is made from Corian Solid Surface, it sits on model airplane wheels. the rotor blades and tail fin are also made from corian. The rotors spin and the cake will roll on its wheels. The cake itself is three layers of chocolate cake, carved and then iced with buttercream icing.
