I used several ideas from this site to create this train cake for my son's 2nd birthday. It was chocolate cake with buttercream icing, pretzel rods for logs, and to connect each train car. The smoke stack was an ice cream cone. i made the letters for his name with royal icing and lolipop sticks.
This was my first German Chocolate cake. I had no idea how long to cook the filling, so it was not thick enough. I had to build big "dams" around the layers and around the top of the cake to keep it from oozing off the cake. The customer loved it though.
I made this one for my husband's surprise birthday luau. It is double layer pound cake 10 inch and 8 inch. The tiki hut was 2 cupcakes stacked with a cocktail umbrella for the roof. The cake was iced in chocolate buttercream, then decorated over the top with regular buttercream. The flowers, rocks, and palm leaves are all royal icing. I was a little disappointed that the palm leaves didn't stand out like I would have liked for them to have. Thanks to all of the other ccers for ideas!
I did this cake for my cousin's wedding reception. He wanted something UGA and was thrilled when he saw this cake. It was pound cake with buttercream and chocolate buttercream icing. This was my first cake larger than just a stacked 1/2 and 1/4 sheet cake. I was pretty excited with the outcome. Thanks for looking!
I did these pound cake cupcakes for a Wedding Shower Picnic, much easier to handle at a picnic than a cake. I topped each cupcake with 2 of Wilton's wedding band favors. Everyone loved them.
I did this birthday cake for a friend of a friend's birthday. She told me that she loved icing, so I loaded it down with mounds flowers.

This was one of the first cakes I had done for someone other than family. It's 1/2 sheet pound cake with buttercream icing.
I took some ideas from Cakery to create this cake. The colors turned out really really bright, I hope that the customer is going to like it, I'm a little nervous!!
I did this cake for my son's first birthday. I used a construction set I found at Toys R Us as the toppers, and used crushed oreos for the asphault. I don't have a picture of the smash cake, but it was a small rectangle pound cake (I ended up having to send my mother to the store to purchase a frozen pound cake for me to decorate for him last minute, I forgot to save out enough batter for his cake!) with a big #1 and 2 small dump trucks. He liked running the trucks through the icing more than eating it!
This was a last minute order for a 1/4 sheet cake for a raffle at a local golf tournament. Water is tinted piping gel.
I used several ideas from this site, to create my own version of the graduation cap cake. I baked the rounded part of the cap in a pyrex mixing bowl, then baked a sugar cookie in a big square, and let it get really hard. I then iced it all to look like a graduation cap. I was a little worried about the coloring, the school colors are gold and burgundy. Burgundy is very difficult to achieve in icing coloring!
This cake was done for a T-Ball Team for their end of the season celebration. The baseball was baked in a pyrex bowl and put on top of a 1/2 sheet cake.
This was a cookie cake done for a great friend of my husband's, and a huge UGA fan. Go DAwgs!
This was done for a girl's pool party. When her mom picked the cake up, she could hardly contain her happiness with the look of the cake. It's a great feeling when that happens! The water was piping gel tinted blue, and the rope across the pool was made with smarties. The rest is buttercream icing.
I took a few ideas from this site and created my own version of the Little Mermaid birthday cake. The island is created with a cupcake, then covered with icing, and graham cracker crumbs to look like sand. I purchased the little mermaid and flounder in a package together at Target for about 4.99, thanks to bjfranco for that information!
This was a Thomas Cake done for a little boy's 2nd birthday. It was a 1/2 sheet yellow cake with buttercream icing. I modified a cake idea I saw in a birthday express catalog.
