My first fondant cake ever. This was for my boyfriend's birthday. He's played the bassoon for over 10 years. It was 42 inches long (20% smaller than life-size). Used "Durable Cake for 3-D..." recipe w/ DH Dark Chocolate Fudge mix. Baked in 12x18 sheet cake pan, cut, and carved. Iced with Chocolate Syrup Frosting w/ McCormick Raspberry extract added. Covered in Satin Ice chocolate fondant; Nu Silver and Super Pearl luster dusts were mixed with vodka and painted on sculpted fondant pieces.
I made this cake for my mom's college graduation. I baked the base of the mortarboard in a glass bowl and then set it on top of a two layer 9-inch cake. The top is a large icing-covered sugar cookie that is supported by a sheet of cardboard. I made the tassel by covering a wooden skewer with icing. I used blue icing because that was one of her school colors. I enjoyed making this for my mom because I was so proud of her!
I made this Oreo cake based on all of the wonderful ones in the Gallery. It was chocolate cake for the "cookie" layers and white cake for the "cream" layer. I used three 9-inch rounds placed on top of one another, with the cream layer cut a little smaller in diameter.
I made this cake for my brother's 17th birthday. I used the new stadium pan from Nordicware, and then carved the cake to make the famous "Horseshoe" shape. I used the "Durable Cake for 3D and Wedding Cakes" recipe with chocolate cake mix. I frosted it with store-bought Wilton Decorator icing that I tinted gray, dark gray, and red. The scoreboard and field were made by my sister on the computer. To give you some idea of the scale, the "crowd" was made using Wilton colored non-pareils.
I made two sets of these cookies for my boyfriend's twin brothers for their 15th birthday. They're chocolate cut-outs with robin's egg blue meringue icing and flocked sugar polka dots.
This was a cake my sister and I made for our mom's birthday. It was a yellow cake with chocolate frosting. The turrets are made out of sugar cones, cake cones, and wrapping paper tubes.
Buttescotch cake cut to size, iced in buttercream, and covered with edible image (thanks to deijha for making it for me).
I used the Durable Cake for 3D and Wedding Cakes recipe from this site (doubled) baked in two loaf pans and carved into shape. This cake was chocolate with raspberry filling and buttercream icing.
My boyfriend and I made this in a dorm kitchen at college the day before the Super Bowl on a whim, so it's not my best work. I used yellow pipe cleaners for the goal posts.
Made using Wilton's Partysaurus cake pan. I added cut-to-size sugar cookies for the parts of the crest, beak, and tail that extended beyond the cake. This cake was for my boyfriend's birthday and was a real hit. It was my first major attempt at cake decorating.
