Wedding cake that made after making my two daughter's college graduation cakes. The cake is white with buttercream icing. The ribbon is fondant covered in super pearl. On the bottom tier swirl flowers and leaves are piped in buttercream. Handmade each individual pearl for around the tiers, forgot I had to have them for the cake and ended up making them in the early morning hours before had to deliver the cake. The top of the cake had a antique tea cup and saucer with tea roses, but not here for photo.
This is the cake I made for my oldest daughter graduation. (The second graduation in two weeks- both of our daughters graduated from college) Cake is covered in white chocolate fondant. Grad cap is gum paste, power-E's are gumpaste, fondant ribbon roses, and gum paste curlies.
I did this cake for my youngest daughter's graduation for practical nursing. It is covered in buttercream. Nurse's cap is made from gum paste. The stethascope and therometer are made from fondant and gumpaste.
This was such a fun cake to make. Cake is white covered with buttercream with fondant accents. Animals are all free-hand modeled with 50/50 fondant/gumpaste. Puppies and kittens were modeled after dogs & cats we have had over the years and some of their playful personalities. Cake was definitely a hit with the b-day girl, it had all her favorites - animals, purple and pink!!
Chocolate birthday cake for co-workers boy. OU is buttercream thinned with kayro syrup and flowed directly onto cake. Funny note about the cake - co-worker hated it (not really - LOL) just because it had OU on it - he is a BIG KU fan-can't stand that his boy likes OU! LOL
Chocolate cake covered in buttercream. Co-worker wanted it for a church dinner - said to make it really simple. The last couple cakes I had made him for this dinner - the lady's in the church would not cut them, because they were too fancy LOL The hearts are just embossed on the top and sides of the cake
These are kittens that go with the puppies for a little girl's 2nd b-day cake. Made from fondant/gumpaste.
These are fondant/gum paste puppies I have been working on for a little girl's 2nd b-day cake. They gave me free reign - just wanted puppies and kitties on the cake.
White cake iced in buttercream. Gum paste roses and leaves dusted with gold luster dust, with edges painted with gold luster dust mixed with vodka.
Last minute request from our daughter's college classmates for a surprse party. This is the second cake to the tea pot cake I made for our daughters birthday. Chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling, covered in white chocolate fondant. Gum paste bow, fondant gift tag.
Surprise cake I did for our daughter who is away at college studying nursing. The tea pot is made from rice crispie treats covered in fondant. The book is chocolate cake. All pieces on the cake are edible either made from fondant or gum paste. This was a fun cake to make. She collects miniture tea sets. This ended up being just one of the two cakes I made her - her fellow classmates called and wanted a cake for a surprise party - of course at the last minute - see my package cake.

Truck is white cake, top half of trailer is half lemon, half white with bottom half of ttrailer ricecrispie treats. Wheels are ricecrispies. Truck covered in fondant, trailer in buttercream. Fondant and gum paste accent pieces. This cake DID NOT get cut at the party!!! - I had to bring it back and bring it into work. LOL
12 x 18 Red Velvet Cake covered with BC icing. Gum paste leaves and mums in fall colors. Corners piped with BC and dusted with luster dust.
9 x 13 sheet - white cake covered in buttercream. Gum paste mums and maple leaves. I had free reign to do what I wanted, gentleman just wanted a anniversary cake. Most I got of him was "I guess mums for flowers" First time to make mums - pretty easy - but didn't have time to make and let dry - so they were put on the cake right after I made them, if I had more time I think they would have looked better.
THANKS to everyone who help with contruction of book cakes-even though cake ended up being only one book. Did for my DD who is a nursing student. The book is 8x10x4"high double layer-one layer triple chocolate, other white chocolate. Covered with BC. Scanned her actual book, and covered with edible image. Stethascope,nurse cap, bandaids, needle&syringe, pills are gum paste. Notebook paper is edible image sheet.
6 inch - one layer triple chocolate, the other white chocolate, covered in BC with fondant accents and gum paste calla lillies. Made this cake this weekend for my daughters friend at college. She had seen my wedding cake w/calla's and loved them - when my daughter saw Sweetpasson's cake w/ calla lillies and loved it and had me make something similar. Flowers turned out better than I thought. Made the flowers one night - got up in AM & the humidity was outrageous - gumpaste was softer than when first made
I made this cake for the 2007 Harper County Fair. I got Grand Prize plus Best of Show. Everything on the cake is edible (all but the cake itself which is a dummy) This cake was inspired by so many cakes on this site. It was my first time to do a shoe, tiara, dress imprint, boxes, etc. Most everything on this is a first. Since got top at County Fair was able to take to the Kansas State Fair - where it took first in the Advanced Adult-even after completly redoing bottom box/dress after mice ate it!!!!!!
This is two 11x15 sheet cakes - white with BC frosting. Road is fondant. The signs are gum paste with edible imagine attached. The trees are large pretzel sticks with BC branches/leaves. The bike is plastic found at local cake shop. The rider is 50/50 gum paste/fondant. This was a fun cake to make - lost of brain storming. This is the second cake to follow the buzzard cake so b-day boy would not guess about the surprise party this cake was for!!
This was a quick 9x13 for (maybe for future inlaw???). Buzzard is all iced directly onto the cake with BC thinned with karo syrup. The joke is this is the first of two cakes for the gentleman - there is a surprise cake - much more detailed (biker) for Saturday surprise party - wife realized if there was not a cake for his actually b-day Wednesday he would be suspicious (sp?) and guess about the sat. party. Called at last minute for this one to save her b***.
12x18 Red Velvet cake w/BC icing. Bra done in gum paste. Edible images around the sides of her favorite Nascar driver. The checkered flag was done with Wilton spray colors (yuck!! - I want an air brush!!!) THANK YOU so much to maplecakes and Nana784 for their help and inspiration for this cake. Posting another picture of inside of bra cups - put edible image of husband's favorite driver #24 as a joke - was probably the hit of the cake!!
This is the grooms cake that goes with the square wedding cake with the pink bows in my photos. It is white cake w/buttercream. Thinned the buttercream with corn syrup and piped the design directly onto the cake.
My first square wedding cake. Like a post I made when making this I have respect for all of you that can do flawless corners on a square. Cake was white with BC sizes 6,8,10,12. Designed at request of bride she wanted the different designs on the cake - so we came up with putting something different on each tier - diamond, scroll, swiss dot and cornelli. Can't tell by this photo (THANKS -PHOOV for the photo), but cake was set up on table at an angle-with point facing to front. Fresh flowers, real ribbon
Actually after wedding - wedding cake. Couple married out of state and this was for the reception held at the grooms hometown. 12x18 white cake w/BC (When asked what flavor cake wanted MOG said "there's more than just white???LOL) Gerber daisies are gum paste.
12x18 white cake covered in BC. Roses, leaves & ivy are gumpaste.
11x15 covered in buttercream. Roadrunner piped directly onto cake top. Roadrunner is local high school mascot - according to the mom the caption reflected the opinion of her son. LOL Grad cap was gum paste.
This cake is 18x24 (2-12x18 sheets one white one choco). Center emblem is edible image. Hydrant, boots & ax are out of gum paste. Helmet is rice rispies covered in fondant. Helmet is an exact replica of his actual helmet. Fire hose is buttercream with gum paste ends. I received more compliments on this cake than any other and I wasn't at the event.
