I ran out of time on this one and rushed the red scrolls so I wasn't completely happy. Hubby helped with the sushi under my direction.
Made gluten free for a friend at work. This was my first sculpted frog. I ran out of time, otherwise I would have had more details on here.
We had a great time planning this shower. I couldn't master the Celtic knot molds, but my hubby was great at it.
Made for a good friend of mine. I was pleased with the way the star placement turned out.
Winter Baby Shower--White cake w/ Peppermint Buttercream filling. I tried a new technique. The snowcap on top is white fondant with a coating of piping gel then sprinkled w/ sanding sugar mixed w/ luster dust. Special Thanks to DianeLM for her inspiration and guidance
Dairy free cake for my brother-in-law and his fiance's engagment party. The bow is tied how we'll tie the sash on the bridesmaid dresses. Fresh flower
A cake for a friend/co-worker's wedding as my gift to them. It's the biggest cake I've made yet and it had quite a car ride to get there and a barn w/o A/C on an 80 degree day. All things considered I think it went well. I bow down to Sugarshack for her buttercream and stacking techniques :)
White Almond Sour Cream filled with Chocolate Buttercream and covered in Fondant. Design provided by the proud Mom. This was one off those friend of a friend cakes. I hope they liked it!
This was for my good friend's bridal shower. Cake mix extender with cookies and cream filling, buttercream dream, and fondant accents. It was pretty exhausting doing the cake and decor. Thank goodness the party wasn't at my house!
It was good to have a cake force me to practice scrollwork. Piping is so not my forte.
Sugarshack is my hero! This is my first cake after her DVD and I couldn't be happier. Made this as a favor to a friend throwing a shower. Came mix extender w/ cookies & cream filling and Buttercream Dream. This was my first time making callas. Next time the stamens will be shorter. The Z is white chocolate dusted with silver dust. I had an entire monogram, but the first initials broke :(
White Almond Sour Cream with raspberry buttercream and ganache. The roses are her fave flower (gumpaste) and the heart is chocolate. This was in the car on a 90+ degree day for a 45 min. ride. So glad it made it!
I think this goes down as my fave cake so far. It wouldn't have been possible without the help of my wonderful mother-in-law. If only I could always have someone to knead fondant, roll balls, and clean up after me the entire time. White almond sour cream cake with raspberry buttercream and vanilla and chocolate fondant. This was my first time sculpting a teddy bear, and I love him. Thanks aine2 for the tutorial!
Spice Cake Mix Extender w/ Cinnamon and regular Buttercream Dream--Gumpaste Gerberas were my first. Chocolate transfer monogram.
Darn Good Chocolate Cake w/ peanut butter bc and chocolate ganache. Chocolate transfers and gumpaste pansies.
A closer shot of the top layer.
This was for the baptism of a co-workers daughter. I originally planned to do fondant drapes, but then realized trying something new two hours before I was supposed to leave was not the best idea. Marble cake with chocolate malt filling. Decorations are gumpaste.
This was a huge one! 14-10-6 inch layers. Bottom is white almond sour cream w/ strawberry buttercream, others are darn good chocolate with cookies and cream. Flowers and flamingos are gumpaste, chocolate shells. This one was too fun to do! Huge thanks to album angel for the hibiscus tips!
My best friend's having a girl! Chocolate cake with cannoli filling and buttercream dream. Booties and flowers are gumpaste. Thank goodness for gumpaste. It's so easy to do decorations ahead of time, then you just have to ice the cake and throw them on.
I donated this cake for a silent auction. Marble cake with chocolate BC filling and buttercream dream. Chocolate transfers with a gumpaste cap. The grad's mom didn't give me much to go on and his school colors made it tough to keep it from looking like a 4th of July cake. I'm pretty happy with how it came out though.
Topped with flowers from my last gumpaste class.
The top cake was originally supposed to be a 6 inch, but the bow ended up a lot larger than I thought. I also didn't make enough loops so I improvised. I'll definitely try this again.
A cake for a co-worker's daughter. Red Velvet cake minus the red (food coloring is impossible to find the week after Easter) with cream cheese filling and Buttercream Dream. Fondant, gumpaste, and chocolate decorations. I had a blast on this one!
