Bowl Of Spaghetti
I made this quickly one afternoon for my husband's birthday - I didn't want to spend much time on it because he'd prefer me to spend time with him! It was a lemon cake, lemon curd colored dark red, lemon BC "piped" to look like spaghetti, and shaved white chocolate to look like Parmesan cheese - he loved it so I was happy. It's not the prettiest cake, but it's one of his favorites :)

Elvis Silhouette
This is a sheetcake I made for a friend's mom - she is crazy for Elvis! I just made a large and a few small records from black fondant, traced the silhouette on fondant, and cut a few small pieces from fondant for music notes. This was a pretty simple cake, but she really enjoyed it - she didn't want to eat the Elvis - I think she saved him for a while! lol

Cheetos & Orange Crush Cake
50th anniversary groom's cake - sweet story behind it. This was fun to make for them. Loosely copied Cheetos bag from 1950s, and Crush bottle from 1959. "Plastic" on bag made from gelatin sheet some on CC are using for bows, etc. Thank you to all the CC'ers who helped me with various parts of this - you are all WONDERFUL!!

Wii Cake
This was carved from sheetcake and put on several dowels that had been drilled into a large wood block for support. I did my best on the measurements, but I was definitely off. I made the sides and front/back ahead of time to dry and harden, but they were too small, so I had to improvise and fill in. This was for my nephew's 8th birthday and he was thrilled, though! They are my guinea pigs and I do their cakes for free for practice, so it's ok! I will know better for future cakes!

Purple Castle
I cut and dried fondant walls(with tylose powder added for stiffness) and attached them with BC. I shaped &dried the side towers on a large (clean) piece of piping and attached with BC. The top towers are made from paper towel rolls and ice cream cones. I piped some vines and small flowers in BC.
