White Chocolate IMBC. The sides of the cake what I do with tip 18 when I'm too tired to smooth the cake. I work aoubt 12 hours everyday so many times I'm doing cakes at 10pm. Gotta love it!! Oak Leaves are color flow
I got the inspiration for this cake off this site. Thank you everyone for your wonderful pictures and ideas. I love CC!!!. The railings, headboard and footboard are all colorflow. In the headboard are the initial tKf for the baby's name (Thomas Ferdinand Kivlehen). The mobile hangy things are rice paper. White Choc IMBC
Birthday girl wanted her cake shaped like the number 17. I have fun with this. Used my cross pan and carved it. White Choc IMBC with fondant accents and strawberry filling.
Practicing up for Opa's (Grandfather in German) Birthday
Done for my office Christmas Party. Wanted a variety to please everyone. Ornaments are White Choc IMBC, Blue Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Icing and Royal Icing Snowflakes (1st time), and finally Choc Cake with Choc Ganache and Raspberry Filling
This was my first try at Baby Blocks. This picture was before the client's husband picked it up and put in his SLANTED backseat becasue he had too much STUFF in the trunk. Needless to say I had to go over her house and repair it by the time we was thru. White Choc BC with color flow pieces.
For a 2 year old. Just trying something new. BC with color flow dots.
The birthday girl gave exact specifics about her cake. She wanted Pink and Aqua polka dots with a bow. She insisted on no flowers. This is Vanilla IMBC with fondant accents. Birthday tag is gumpaste.
This was the royal icing badge I created. I was so proud of myself. I cracked when i pressed it down on the cake. I was careful peeling it off the wax paper and then....THE CRACK HEARD ROUND THE WORLD. It was a clean break though, i was able to just push it back together and most didn't notice. Choc. cake WC IMBC, Royal Icing wording and dots
Her mom said that Navy and Silver were her favorite colors. Once I got it all together with the stars and everything it looked a lot like a Dallas Cowboy cake. Anyway, chocolate cake with white chocolate icing and MMF stars and little "18"s. Royal Icing big "18"
Chocolate Cake with White Chocolate IMBC. MMF Decorations
Lemon Butter Cake with White Chocolate IMBC. MMF Decorations. The plaque says "The Tassle Was Worth the Hassel"
This was leftover lemon pound cake batter and leftover white chocolate IMBC. Wanted to try my hand at scrollwork. Came out okay even though you can't see it very well. I resized the picture too small.
This cake was done for the one year anniversary party of our new database. It was half lemon and half chocolate with with White Chocolate IMBC. The icing was yummy!!! Edible images on top and "imbedded" on the sides.
I resized the photo too small. Sorry. Lemon Pound cake with lemon pudding filling
All Buttercream with left over violets from Wilton Course II. Top part of dress is fondant. This was fun. The hardest thing believe it or not was doing her hair. I accidently resized the photo's too small and deleted the originals before checking. Very smart of me, huh? Hope you don't have to squint too hard to see it.
Thomas, the 8s, BEN, and the dots are all color flow. I had fun doing this one and rather simple. Just made the colorflow two weeks in advance to give them time to dry. I love it when clients give you enough time to plan. Thomas did break in the corner when I peeled him off the wax paper but I just stuck it back up there.
This cake was done for the guys in our mailroom at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, Germany as a gift of appreciation for their hard work. I used cocoa powder in the MMF but used too much because it's not paper bag brown color. Anyway, good cake though. Butter cake with strawberry coolwhip filling.
This cake was done for my girlfriend who was leaving the Air Force and going back to the states. I'm going to miss her very much. I did Mickey because she, even at the age of 34y/o has an unnatural affection for Mickey Mouse. Her house is almost completed decorated with Mickey and Clowns. She doesn't like Minnie, though. I think she's jealous cause she wants Mickey all to herself. She refers to Minnie as that B!%*H! Red Velvet (always leaves crumbs) w/ white chocolate cream cheese frosting.
This was a big cake. It's two 11x15s with a book cake on top. The chocolate base is two toned. Apparently, when you let chocolate sit at room temp too long before you pipe it, it get's darker. The piping is both light and dark. I tried to camoflauge (sp?) it a little by sprinkling cocoa powder on it but to no avail. Who knew!!! Bookmard and tassel are fondant. flowers are royal. Icing is a chocolate buttercream.
My first Baby Shower Cake and I'm so proud. The idea was from KiddieKakes...thanks KiddieKakes. Butter cake with strawberry coolwhip filling. MMF covering, blanket, daisies, and Welcome sign. The ABC, 123 and other items are royal icing.
This cake was done for my friend's boyfriend who loves everything Texas Longhorn. I would have personally preferred to do the acutal bull, but she wanted the hand. Oh well, whatever the client wants, right?
This cake was done for a friend of a friend who took my old bed to the trash. To be honest I just wanted to practice making a bed cake. I tried to be scientific about the whole thing and measure and even made and exact replica of the quilt on power point but in the end I had to improvise because I didn't take into account the rise of the cake (I didn't want to level it because I bed is fluffy) and the extra inches added on by the frosting. Anyway lessons learned
The client told me that the birthday "girl" was into snowboarding so this what I came up with. I was hoping she didn't take offense to the my humor indicating that she had crashed and was now buried in the snow. The hat, mittens, boots and snowboard are all fondant.
This was fun minus the stringwork :-( I don't think my instructor was too please with my non-white icing but I decided to use IMBC and you know that ususally comes out "butter" color.
This was a lot of fun. I like working with fondant, but I hate the taste of that Wilton Boxed Fondant. YUCK!!!!! I made some MMF for the first time, but the instructor would only let me usee it for the flower cut outs and the dots.
