This cake was not too complicated. I actually used a 3D bear pan for Simba and carved it a bit to give me a shape closer to Simba. I then padded the face with fondant accents to give me the shape I needed, then covered it in fondant. One cake has an airbrush pattern on the bottom.
I haven't posted for some time so I'm trying to play catch up. I made this Mickey Mouse cake for a litte boy's birthday. I had a hard time because the bake shop was a bit warm and had to dismantle and redo part of it but all in all, it came out cute.
Created this cake for a baby shower.
This is a wedding cake I made recently. The flowers are all handmade with gumpaste; the cake is vanilla and the filling is cheesecake and guava. Yum.
This is just a simple fondant cake with a color scheme of Pink, Black and Silver for a 16th birthday girl.
I created this out of buttercream at the bride to be's request. This was for a bridal shower. I used a comma pan and a round cake for the top.
I created this cake for a girl who did like the subway commercials and eats her turkey sandwiches every single day...koodos to her because she lost a crazy amount of weight and looks great. She still eats turkey sandwiches daily.
This cake was created for a little boy who was coming down to spend the time with his family and enjoy the ocean on their jet ski's.
This sculpted cake is totally edible. It was a huge challenge and I learned a lot. I put the wings on the wrong side so the airbrushing is not so great but overall I think the cake came out interesting.
This cake was for a friend and it was very last minute. It's a quick easy design that worked out well since the boy wanted a Star Wars Theme cake. I included a blue light on CP3O's head. The little boy really liked the cake It is basically made with a sheet cake and a ball pan cut in half. Then I cut a portion from the sheet cake for the shape of the arms and covered the whole thing in fondant. It was one of the quickest cakes I've done yet.
I made this cake for a 20th Anniversary. The party was centered around the Casino Theme. The cake was based on design provided by the person who requested the cake, I changed the design slightly by adding the Plaque behind the two dice and a few other things. I added blinking lights to give it the real Casino type feel.
This cake is a Disney/Minnie Mouse themed topsy turvey cake. The minnie mouse was made in advance and is styrofoam covered in fondant. I hand sculpted the face on a ball of styrofoam then covered it in fondant. I transported the cake without the top to get it there safely then assembled. It was not an easy cake to do and I learned alot from this experience.
This cake was actually made for an anniversary. They were being surprised with a trip to St. Augustine, FL. The lighthouse is made of rice krispy covered in fondant and the top glass section is a sheet of gelatin. The water is poured sugar.
Here is a simple Blue and Brown purse cake I made for a little girl.
This was for a young boy. He and his friends got a kick out of this cake. It's all cake, stacked and sculpted.
I've had the idea for this cake for quite some time. I finally had time to try to attempt it. It was challenging putting the fondant over such a big surface for the tub. I still have yet to put bath fixtures on it but the pieces are drying. Anyway, I've been experimenting with hand sculpting fondant to get the real facial features and not using a mold. Thisi is the result. Hope you like it!
The top piece is bubble sugar and the shells are chocolate. I had someone here locally make me chocolate molds of different types of shells and they came out really interesting.
This was done for a little girl's birthday. The rainbows are out of candy. The ponies are plastic toys.
This cake was done for a baby shower. The theme is safari animals.
I had an amazing time learning with Sue McMahon. This is a little of what I learned.
This was done for a wedding recently. The flowers were provided by the florist and I provided the monograms.
Ugh, wanted to cry stressing about this one. The bride wanted the entire cake edible so I couldn't make the towers out of anything but cake. The notched out part on each turret is made of rice crispy treat and dipped in the cookie crumbs. I iced the whole thing in b/c and crumbed in Nilla Wafers. I transported it mostly assembled but put the details on there. The topper was provided by the bride and is blown glass seahorses. The top cake is a sandcastle bundt cake dipped in crumbs (no icing).
This cake was done for a 18th Birthday. The guy is getting ready to go to film school so the mom wanted me to create this clapboard which is totally edible. The difficult part was the open clapboard but I did that with wired covered in black royal so you can see it that much. The bottom cake was an oval with drapes around the edible images which are blurred so you cannot see the face but it was of the guy's various ages through life. The frames and stars are painted in luster.
I'm pretty happy with the way this turned out. I did this for my daughter just because I'd been wanting to try to make a cake like the Green M&M they show on commercials. I think she's cute and spunky. For instructions, follow this thread or cut and paste: http://forum.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-47346-egg
This was done for a couple from Europe for their wedding on the beach in sunny FLA.
This was entered in a contest last month for the company who sells the toppers. I don't know what the outcome of the contest was but the cake came out cute.
