Two Tiered Tiffany Box Cake
This was made for a young lady turning 21, with very expensive taste! A 12 inch caramel mud cake with an 8 inch dark chocolate mud cake on top, both covered in FondX. The bow and ribbons are made with gumpaste and dusted with super pearl lustre. The logo was drawn freehand with a non toxic black marker pen.

Double Christening Cake
This was a last minute request from a friend for a double Christening of two cousins. The mothers were having a "Tiffany blue" and mauve theme, so I tried to incorporate that into the design. Bottom tier chocolate mud, top tier, white chocolate mud, covered in fondX. Bows, plaque and bears made with gumpaste and the bows were dusted in super pearl lustre. Unfortunately, I took this photo before I put the mauve ribbon around the board, and didn't take another until after it was cut!

Easter Bunny
This is for my daughter's school raffle. I donated a cake last year which they used as the fourth prize, this year it has made it to first prize! Made from a 10" square, white chocolate mud cake, carved then crumb coated with buttercream with a fondant layer over that. I used a knife to make the "fur" marks and the grass on the board is made by pressing the tip of a star tube into the green fondant whilst it's still wet.

50Th Wedding Anniversary Cake
A very traditional Anniversary cake done for my daughter's teacher, whose parents were celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary. They are a very religious family and wanted a reading from the bible included. Not being a church goer, this was a daunting task, also, not having any experiece piping with royal icing and I was nervous to say the least.

Pink Butterfly Cake
I made this cake for a new customer. It's a 4" white chocolate mud with fondant, all the details are fondant and I pressed my small butterfly cutter into the cake before it got too hard and then coloured the butterflies with pink shimmer powder. In Australia, we don't often do cake tastings, so I thought it would be nice to give a new customer a small cake to take home when they placed an order. Just trying something new to see how it works:)

Mini Tiffany Box Cake
I just received and order for a 21st birthday. The birthday girl wants Tiffany boxes, so I thought I should have a practice run first. This is a 4" square covered in fondant which I coloured with equal amount of teal green and capri blue, the lid is also cake and the bows and tissue are made out of fondant mixed with cellogen.
