This was for a young lady turning 21. Her parents wanted an Astros cake with a jersey on it. Her favorite player is Lance Berkman (I forged his autograph on the jersey). Box sides, jersey and tissue are all fondant. Thanks for looking.
Choc cake with b/c icing. Four-wheeler is RC covered with fondant. This is a reactment of a wreck my son had on his four-wheeler. When he saw his cake he started laughing, but made sure I knew that he didn't end up face down in the mud!
Choc cake with b/c icing. This is almost an exact duplicate of tripletmom's . . . but hers is much better!! The Wilton website instructions call for the top of the sombrero to be cake, but I opted to have just a hollow hat.
This cake was for a baby shower and the theme was pink and brown cowgirl. She knew she wanted cow spots, a rope, and a pink bandana . . . but let me do what I wanted as far as design. Love those kind of customers!!! Anyway, thanks for looking! Oh yeah, choc cake with buttercream and fondant accents. I picked up a miniature hat used in making homecoming corsages and molded fondant over it for the hat.
This cake was for a customer whose husband was turning 60. Its a big joke at their house that every time she gets take-out for dinner, he yells Kill me! (cuz this kind of food is bad for him). Anyway, choc and yellow cake with buttercream icing and fondant accents. The hamburger was yellow cake with fondant. Time consuming, but really fun cake to make!
For my granddaughter's 6th BD. Chocolate and yellow cake with buttercream icing, and fondant accents and bows.
Chocolate cake, chocolate bavarian filling, chocolate icing, fondant leaves, rice paper butterflies. Oh yeah . . . and fondant rocks Thanks for looking again!
This was my first (and last) wedding cake!! A friend begged me to do her niece's wedding cake and the groom's cake. I told her "NO"!!, but after much begging from her, I said OK. I will never do this again!!!! Too much stress! Birthday cakes are one thing, but wedding cakes are in a whole stress-level by themselves!! Anyway, this is a yellow, strawberry and white cake, with buttercream icing and satin ice flowers. Thanks for looking.
A customer asked for a longhorn cake for her 1 yo little boy, so . . . I copied a design I had already done and just did a separate cake for the birthday boy! Thanks for looking!
This is a slightly different design of a cake I've already done. The customer wanted a grass skirt look on the bottom tier. I don't know that it looks like a grass skirt, but it definitely looks like a grass roof! Also, I had added flowers to the top of the cake just because it looked like it needed it! I just forgot to get more pictures!
This cake was a graduation cake for the West Hardin Oilers HS. White cake with buttercream icing, royal icing oil rigs, and fondant diplomas. I used the alphabet cookie cutters to cut the letters out of cake. Time consuming, but I like the effect it gave. Thanks for looking!
Again, another version of a design I have already done.
Just another version of one I have already done! I really like doing slight variations of designs that I've already done. The lid is cake wrapped in fondant; the bow is fondant.
This is a slightly different version of one I have already done, just different colors.
First, let me thank ChristyB for her design and help. She gave me permission to use her design, but I'm afraid I didn't do it justice! I had quite a few problems with this cake, but it turned out okay . . . and the customer liked it . . . so I guess that's what counts! Anyway, it's a devil's food cake, torted (I HATE torting cakes) with buttercream and fondant elements. The "Cassie" is royal icing.
A customer order a cake for her husband and told me to do anything I wanted! So I tried a racoon using the mini stand-up bear pan. It didn't turn out exactly as I had hoped, but cute none the less. Two layers of choc and top layer and bear was white. Butter cream icing with fondant leaves, rocks and grass.
This cake was for a christening. Cake was half choc and half yellow. Cross and blanket are fondant. Trim on blanket is luster dust. This was my first time working with luster dust . . . I'm not a big fan!!
Another 'older than dirt' cake. Idea came from several here on the CC site! Two 9x13's (one white, one choc) covered with buttercream. Dirt is crushed oreos.
This was for a friend of mine. Choc cake with buttercream icing, and fondant daisies and bow. Design was christyB's (again!). Thanks christyB!
This was for a 13 yo girl. She wanted something that looked 70's. Inspiration came from christyB.
I was asked to do a "hip hop" cake for a little girl that was turning 10. She let me do whatever I wanted as long as it had a hat on top. So after some research, I found out that hip hop is all about music. It didn't turn out exactly and I had hoped, but she liked it! Thanks to DianaMarieMTV, DannysmommyVal, and all the other CC members who gave me much needed advice!
Another Lightning McQueen Cars cake! I took several ideas from the CC website and kinda put them together. And I apologize, but I can't remember who, but there were three of you! And might I add that this was a very labor intensive cake to decorate!!!! Thanks for looking.
One of my grandson's requested an "Element" cake. Had to do some research, but found out that Element is the name of a company that makes skateboards and clothes. The pattern on this cake was taken from one of their T-shirts. Cake is chocolate w/buttercream icing and fondant striping.
I had another request for a John Deere baby shower cake. I was given free reign on the design. It turned out much cuter than the picture . . . I gotta get a better camera!!
This was a special request from my 14yo grandson. Choc cake with buttercream icing. Pretty simple!
This was a last minute decision for a Christmas Eve dinner. It was patterned after one from the 2006 Wilton Book, at least I think it was the 2006.
