Castle Cake
My first castle cake...was fun but a lot of work!! Three layer cake, all buttercream on cakes. Brick effect added with putty knife edge. Towers are made out of rice krispy treats on dowel rods for stability, covered in marbled pink fondant. (Looked cool, the texture of the rice krispy treat made it look like stone.) Whew, glad it's done!

Fire Helmet
Fire Helmet cake - followed directions on this site and it worked perfectly!! This was my first MMF project and I was very impressed with how easy it was to work with. I may never buy packaged fondant again. I thought it looked rather blah, but it was an exact replica of the Chief's helmet. (I guess I like the "lower-rank" firemen's better, with the red, black, and yellow, more vibrant colors.)

Choo Choo Train
Cake engine made from 3D pan, individual cars made from mini loaf pan. All covered and decorated with BC. Cars have candies and cookies on the top. Wheels made out of cookies...they didn't last long. Before the candle was blown out, it looked like a train wreck. Missing wheels, finger pokes, missing candy decor... oh well. Lots of fun anyways.
