Just a close up for detail purposes! The sea creatures and coral went all the way around the cake...
I did this cake for my niece's 2nd birthday. She loves Ariel, so I created her castle under the sea. The castle was made using the bundt castle cake pan. I lightly crumb-coated the cake and covered in fondant and smoothed to get the castle's details, and airbrushed. The turrets are from the castle kit. Coral, flowers, and seaweed were made out of royal icing. Various sealife were royal icing and pre-purchased. Sand is graham crackers & sparkling sugar. Shells were candy melts.
Had to do a cake for a co-worker's birthday. Originally, I was going to airbrush some kind of design on the top of a CCC iced all in white, but as i'm still new to airbrushing, I kind of goofed it up. So I scraped my goof up off the top, re-mixed the icing, which resulted in a pretty shade of green, and then re-colored the remaining white that I had to blue and here's the result! Cupcakes are vanilla cake/black cherry filling/vanilla buttercream. Scrollwork isn't perfect but i'm learning!
This cake was made using the giant cupcake pan from Wilton. It was a champagne cake with buttercream icing. The base of the cupcake was surrounded with the soft peppermint sticks that I purchased at Cracker Barrel. The cupcake top was sprinkled with peppermint sugar crystals and the entire cake was sprayed with the pearl luster spray.
10in chocolate cake filled and iced in a chocolate bettercreme. Topped with peppermint baking bits and surrounded by candy canes. Canes held to the cake pretty well until the icing began to "dry" out. Once the ribbon was removed, the candy canes began to fall.
This was the cake for the guests to go along with Mumbles. It was two 12 inch square cakes stacked (one vanilla, one chocolate) and iced in buttercream. I used the Happy Feet figurines I found at a toy store on top! The gal I made this for, her 2 1/2 year old daughter decided to "try" the icing before we got pictures! See the little smudge in the corner of the border? LOL
This was the "smash cake" for a 1 year old's birthday. I had so much trouble with the cake itself...when I removed him from the pan, there was a big hole in his chest! I had some leftovers from the heating core, so I repaired the hole with that! The legs were cracked...I thought the neck was cracked too, but it wasn't. In the end, I put a dowel rod through the cake to hold him together and it worked! He's not perfect, but I'm pretty proud of my attempt! I got the inspiration from someone on here! Thank you!
This was one that I did this for my little brother's wedding in June. It's a multi-tiered display cake covered in white fondant and wrapped with a pastel-rainbow sheer ribbon and accented with candles and purple daisies. Sheet cakes were served to the guests.
I made these for a co-worker's birthday. They are dark chocolate fudge cupcakes with a chocolate whipped cream filling. I then dipped the bases in melted candy melts to create a "cup" (inspired by the wilton book). They are topped with bettercreme and a dark cocoa candy melt wafer. They were a hit!
This was the very first 3D bear cake I had done. Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream.
I did this cake for a co-worker's wedding. The cakes and cupcakes were all champagne cake with strawberry preserves for the filling and then iced in buttercream. It's hard to see, but I wrote random words that the couple had provided to me on the sides of the cakes and the wedding date across the top of each tier. The cupcakes mimic the words with printed bands wrapped around the bases.
This was my final cake for my Wilton class. I hadn't quite gotten my roses down yet, so I just did a Mickey Mouse inspired pattern.
This was just a practice cake I did for my mom and sister to see. It was a champagne cake with champagne icing. The roses are royal icing.
This cake was actually all fake, except for the top tier. I did this cake 2 weeks after finishing the 3rd round of Wilton classes for a friend. All fondant, with fresh roses and baby's breath across the front.
This was the cake I did for a friend's daughter's 1st birthday. The bear was her smash cake and the big cakes were served to guests. The bear is strawberry cake with buttercream icing and the bottom cakes are white cake, filled with strawberry cool whip and chopped strawberries, iced in bettercreme and a little strawberry cool whip, and then topped with strawberries in glaze. The pillars were too tall to support the tiers, so we had it together long enough for pictures, and was disassembled immediately.
