I made this cake for my son Kindy. One of his teachers was receiving a national teaching award. The bottom cake represents the outside of the Kindy. We have a bamboo fence around a garden and we put the plastic shoves the kids play with in the top of the bamboo to dry. So that is what the red, yellow and blue things are. The top tier is just coat racks with kids coats and hats etc on. The top has Denise at her desk (she is the Kindy administrator too), performing with her puppets, talking on the phone and doing paperwork
Here is the back. There are two cats also, one trying to get in the backpack and pulling out a map and the other already in the pack. Cheers Min:)
Here is my latest cake. The bride wanted herself and future hubby in their Bridal gear wearing their back packs. They meet in Malaysia while back packing, she is an Aussie and he is Swiss so we decided to have a sign post with all three countries on it on it. I added details like maps, book on Aussie and Sweden, flags and labels etc for the packs in Edible image. She wanted to tie in the Wedding theme of Black Bamboo and Lilies so I made bamboo for the outside of the cake.
I made this cake for a 9 year old girl who didn't want it too girly. She also wanted a peace symbol on the cake somewhere, so i gave the frog a peace ring.
This cake was thrown together last minute and so the finish is really rough because i only had a couple of hours. It started badly when a jar fell out of the cupboard and into my dry ingredients, covering me in cocoa! It basically went down hill from there! ha ha ha.
I made this cake for my friend Nati...yes that Nati...the CC legend! I made a cake that was a wee bit soft for the fondant and the whole cake sunk under the weight of the fondant! Ahhhh. I learnt a lot making this cake and although I was dissapointed with the finish I was happy with the design. The three characters are Nati, Fran and myself. I put the three of us on it because a year ago today we met Fran and soon after became the 3 cakertiers , Nati and I are making tea and Fran is wanting coffee.
Made with 5 cake dummies and sculpted. This was a practice cake i made for a bridal show. If i did it again i would sculpt it more in the middle i think.
I made this cake for a customers 50th birthday. She asked for a rectangle chocolate buttercake with a plaque. I decided to make it look like a chocolate box and piped chocolate ganache to look likes chocolates. When i deliverd it the husband ripped the top off and smooshed it so he could fit it in his fridge.....i had a we cry on the way home! Just glad i took a picture first!
Designed for a bridal fair, i made it out of cake instead of foam because i wanted to see if I could make it! It didn't turn out perfect but I learnt a lot and it was fun to do something a bit funky.
"That cheeky car" made for my sons fourth birthday. The cake was chocolate mud, filled with chocolate ganache and the tyres, signs etc were modelling paste.
