Cruising From Sask To Phx Through Sd

a trio of birthday cakes for 60th birthday.

Wedding Cake For Eleah And Kyle

This is by far the heaviest cake that I've made! Top layer is lemon, middle layer is chocolate and bottom layer is carrot cake. All filled with vanilla pudding. Thanks to my husband who helped and supported me that day. (Almost dropped the bottom layer before it got to the church!)

Matthew's First Communion

I researched the symbolism of communion and decided to recreate The Last Supper using the famous painting as my inspiration. All are made out of fondant. Cake is chocolate with a vanilla pudding filling. I used butter cream icing. This cake was a joy to make.

Happy Bear-Day Mom

This is a carrot cake with whipped cream icing. I used a vanilla pudding filing. My hubby helped by numbering the bears using edible-safe markers.

Our First Anniversary Cake

I made this for my husband and me. The couple is from our wedding cake (see picture in cake central.) I had a lot of fun cutting out the fondant hearts.

Another Happy Birthday Head

A week after making the gray haired birthday girl, my friend's wife wanted a cake for her mom's birthday.

Happy Birthday Head

The hair is fondant, the rest of the cake is buttercream. It was a lot of fun to make!

Going Away Cake

I made this cake for a friend who will be moving to Medicine Hat. It is a chocolate cake with a vanilla pudding filling. The wagon is made out of chocolate and the car is cake too!

Good-Luck Andrea

I made this cake for a friend who will be returning to university. It is a chocolate cake with a vanilla pudding filling. I used fondant and butter cream icing. It's only my third time working with fondant.

Tiered Wedding Cake - Not Edible

This is cake is covered in fondant and is not edible. The shower of flowers are made of fondant too. The cake plate is covered in fondant and I "engraved" daisies in it. I made the backdrop as well.

Our Wedding Cake

This was our dream cake. It was not edible. We drove five hours with it and to another province to our wedding location

Wedding Cake - Sherri And Cary

This is a two-tiered wedding cake for my friend's sister. It was chocolate with a vanilla pudding filling. The bride was able to see it before the reception. Unfortunately, the cake didn't make it to the reception in one piece. The driver hit the brakes too hard and the top tier slide across the bottom. Fortunately, the caterer was able to fix the cake.

Dinosaur Birthday Cake

This dinosaur cake is a chocolate sensation with the kids and the adults. The trees are edible. The lava is custom made too. The cake is iced in whipped cream.

Dome Shaped Birthday Cake

This cake is made with that groovy pan where the inside is a filling. It has a Bavarian cream filling. The icing is whipped cream.

Cruising To 40

This cake was made for a lady who is into Harleys and biking. Last year they biked from Sask to B.C. The trees and rosebushes were made using royal icing. The waterfall was made using piping gel. The rest (except bike and pics) is buttercream.

Happy Icd Day

Everyone should have a special day! This is a two layer chocolate cake with a grand marnier strawberry filling. I used some of my new tips on this cake!

Welcome Carter

This is a two layer chocolate cake with a vanilla pudding filling. The storks were made using royal icing. They were so much fun to make!

Be My Valentine

Two layer white cake with a chocolate pudding filling. The border is sweetpeas

Surviving 30

This is a three-layer checkerboard cake (white and chocolate) with the almond custard filling recipe from this site. I used crushed graham wafers for the sand and pretzels for the hut. (The pretzel idea was from another cake that I had seen on this site). For the trees, I used plastic egg cartons and piped icing over them using the striped icing technique. Three of the ladies are white cake and the other is chocolate. My friend's birthday was a Survivor theme.

Raspberry Delight

This is a four-layer, white cake with the kalhua raspberry cream filling recipe. (See recipe section of this site.) I used whipped cream to ice and decorate the cake. I thawed out frozen raspberries for the garnishing. The cake was made for a gentleman who is diabetic.

Spongebob Squarepants

This cake was a hit with the kids! It is a yellow cake with a vanilla pudding filling.

40Th Birthday Cake

Top layer - white cake with three-berry filling Bottom layer - chocolate cake with a strawberry-grand marnier glaze fire truck - chocolate chip zucchini cake

Wilton Course Three Wedding Cake

This cake is from the 1987 yearbook. The Wilton original has about five more cakes. The top layer is a white coconut cake with three berry filling. The bottom layer is a white cake with a lemon pudding filling.

Tigger

Two layer, chocolate cake with a strawberry filling from this site. Link to strawberry filling: http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-1927-Strawberry-Cake-Filling.html

Going Away Cake

My friend loves monkeys! The cake was a huge hit. Thanks to Ladycakes for providing me with instructions on how to make monkeys. I couldn't find a tip 2A so I improvised by using a coupler to pipe the torso. I finished the cake, about an hour after we were supposed to be at the party. Yikes! Naturally, it is a banana cake.
