Mandy's 17Th Birthday
Chocolate cake, chocolate icing (added caramel vanilla creamer YUMMY!), Chocolate MMF, MMF shapes. I got this idea from several retro cakes on CC. The bows things wouldn't get hard so I was disappointed in that. I have several boo-boo's... It would be real nice to start & to finish a cake without any disasters~ I doubt that will ever happen to me LOL~ :-)

Harley Davidson
I'm not happy with this cake at all. It's for my cousins boyfriend (turning 40) who is a fireman & also has a harley. I think I don't like it because it looks like a little boys cake. Did I also mention I don't like doing sheet cakes?! The emblem is waffer paper. Does anyone use it? It curls up while I'm painting it. I put piping gel on top of it to make it lay down but it didn't help much. Not my best work :-( Oh I got the fire idea coming off the emblem from another cake on CC. Thanks for that cake!!

~My "don't Mess With Me" Pumpkin"
I'll never do another cake unless I have all the materials! It didn't turn out like I had planned but I think it's cute~ The cake is Butter Rum Pecan (2 Bundt pans), BCI, covered with MMF. I used waffer paper for the face. I didn't have an icecream cone so I had to make my brain work over time to come up with a replacement... I used a manderine orange fruit cup for my stem! I stuffed that bad boy with MMF & it worked! Woo hoo!! ~Happy Halloween~

Dustin & Sabrina
8", 12", 16" vanilla cake, iced with buttercream, filling is buttercream icing with champagne flavoring (a special touch) added to it. It tasted wonderful!! Bride wanted it decorated with petunia's, dots, & rope border. The cake was just what the bride pictured it to be. I was so nervous about the flowers she picked. I think it really came together beautifully!

Jessica's Sweet 16Th Bday Cake
This cake was a quickie cake! I did it while I was working on the topsey turvey cake. I didn't get to make a cake for my niece's 16th bday so I made her one this weekend. Yellow cake, BCI & MMF, Corneli Lace is Choco melts, letters & flowers are MMF, & butterflies are color flow~ Her fav color is blue so I had to add the blue butterflies~ :-)

Katie's 10Th Bday
This is my 1st topsey turvey cake. My niece Katie ordered it from me right after I became a member of CC. She saw a pic I had printed out from here that I just loved. She loved it too. So that cake (can't remember who made it) was my inspiration! It was a lot of work & I was afraid to carve the cake more because I would have carved too much & had no cake at all! It is done exactly like she ordered it. Cakes are 6", 8", 10", Choc, Butter Pecan & Yellow. BCI & covered w/ MMF, decorations MMF & Color Flow~

Jeremy & Ashlee's Wedding Cake 9-03-05
This cake is my re-make of the cake on pg 72 in the Wilton's Celebrate w/ Fondant book. This was my first MMF covered wedding cake. Notice I didn't finish the bottom tier w/ the garland.. I ran out of time! The bride & groom never noticed! Thank goodness! My hubby & I were guests of the wedding & I never told anyone that I did the cakes.. I heard so many compliments about my cakes! I needed that! It was so fun to sit back & listen to the guests saying nice things! That makes me so want to do another cake!!

Jeremy's Groom's Cake 9-03-05
Jeremy is a mechanic at the ChevyLand in our town. He didn't want a groom's cake so I did one anyway! The tools are made out of fondant, white chocolate, & a few of them are real kids toys... Can you pick out the "real" ones? This was my 1st time doing molds out of fondant & chocolate. Lots of fun!!

Sherman & Kim's Wedding Cake
This wedding cake is my version of the cake on the front page of Wilton's Wedding Cakes Book "A Romantic Portfolio" (also on page 72). The bride & groom asked me to do this cake 3 wks before the wedding. I didn't have time to do fondant roses so I did all the roses in royal icing. Cake sizes 8", 12", 16". This cake almost put an end to my decorating! I had a lot of disasters happen! Isn't the topper so cute?! The groom bear is in his Air Force blues! I hope you all like it~

Alicia's Bridal Shower Cake
This cake was for my cousins bridal shower. Her fav color is pinks. It is Sour Cream Yellow Cake, w/ BC, covered w/ MMF. This was the first cake I've ever covered w/ MMF. And it's the 1st time I've ever made MMF. It was so easy to make, so easy to roll out, so easy to cover the cake with!! MMF tastes wonderful. Especially since I love MM's!!!! I will never use Wilton's fondant again!!
