Fun

BC with Royal design. 16", 12", 9" and 6". Choc with choc ganache and raspberry, Yellow with choc mousse, and White with strawberry. A fun cake to do and I was pleased with the results, especially with the way the borders came out. The swags didn't actually touch the cake beneath it, so I was happy that the border didn't come out looking rough and choppy.

Topsy Turvey

3rd dummy cake I made for the special reception area of a Willy Wonka junior production my daughter was in. The director gave me a copy of this picture, which I copied, which came from edith meyer's website. It's a beautiful design, and I think it came out okay compared to hers. Unfortunately, I ran out of the same shade of RI to fix the breakage that happened on the way, and I ended up having to use white -- :(. Otherwise, I'm happy with it.
