Mom's Birthday Cake
Pralines & cream cake covered with some marbled purple fondant . I did the stencil in royal and sprinkled with Rainbow Disco dust. There are 4 sugar pearls on there but they get kinda lost. I had a rough time with the fondant- first time for that to happen.... and had to use the ribbon to cover the ruffles at the bottom. I like the final effect it gives. The stencil was almost too big and was off- center. Oh well. Thanks for looking..

Court's Cake
Had in inspiration from srichardson718 and wanted to do a version of her cake for my niece. Due to the time constraints of having young twins (and cakes flopping,as well) - I decided to downsize. This was how my cake turned out. After it was transported to her house, her father added the stars at the corners and took the finished pictures. Sorry for the quality of those last shots. Also the mortar board on the top is chocolate.

Vt Turns 80!
I made this simple cake for hubby's grandfather. The cake is WASC using some Princess flavoring. I used brickflor's chocolate buttercream. It is AMAZING to work with... so nice! Was out of Viva towels. Used the nice little stencil with powdered sugar and everyone was pleased. Oh well... Thanks for looking...

My Very First Pumpkin Cake
I have to say Kudos to all that have made this cake! This is a monster to frost!! My top bundt is pumpkin spice and the bottom is DG Choco Cake. I made a filling with cream cheeese and pumpkin. Well.... I tried.... Everyone oohed and awed... So easily impressed as they don't have access to Cake Central! It was delicious!! Think maybe I will submit it under the "ugliest cake" category as well. All tips and suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Thanks!

Birthday Cupcakes
I had planned to make a huge topsyturvy cake for my niece's 16th. She wanted chocolate cupcakes. These have cheesecake in them. Finished with a small chocolate fondant flower/ silver dragees and Tina from TX's icing recipe. YUM! Big Hit! Maybe next year I will get to do the BIG cake!

Birthday Cakes For Me!
I bought the Wilton Mini Tasty-Fill pans. I made Vanilla - Cardamom batter, filled the hole inside with some buttercream flavored with Cardamom oil. And then made the Whipped Icing III from the recipes section- did a 1/2 batch. Hubby doesn't like a lot of cake and I don't need it! (diabetes) OH! The purple icing is whipped buttercream left over from my ribbon cake... it kinda messed up the writing. Or maybe that was me!! I was just messin' around. Thanks for looking!!

Paige's Birthday
My niece turned 11... She had seen my first flip flop cake a few months ago and picked that as her cake for last Friday. This time I used the WBH White Butter cake, a new (to me) buttercream recipe that uses 2c Crisco, 2 lbs powdered sugar, 1 envelope Dream Whip, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 c milk, 2 tsp vanilla ( I used 1 tsp Princess emulsion), and 1 Tbsp of clear corn syrup. I was very pleased with the icing results.. and my oldest niece really complimented the flavor.fondantdots edited to add new pic with candle

Ribbon For Leiomyosarcoma
This cake was made for the family of my dear friend who lost her battle with this rare cancer on August 9, 2007. Made with love, it is white cake mix with French Vanilla pudding, and vanilla yogurt... extender recipe. The purple icing is whipped buttercream. The white icing is something different- don't remember. This cake held a lot of firsts for me and it will always have a special place in my album. Thanks for looking...

Flip Flops
This cake was a paying job! 2 layer white-on-white buttermilk cake with bettercream and raspberry filling. The icing was from sugarshack and I used white chocolate raspberry creamer. I DID not get paid enough... I got $30. Since it was for a church group where I grew up... I let it slide. It is a very small town. Oh well!!

Summer Shoes
Inspired by all the flip flop pics on this site (faves include melysa, sarahscakes ,and foots2), here is my version. Thanks to melysa for the tips and to foots2 for the strap idea ( because my fondant kept breaking) If there are any questions...I am happy to answer them. This is a 2 layer chocolate with Spiced Rum flavored Bavarian cream filling. I used the "Not too sweet" icicing from the recipe section. I think that's it. LMK....Thanks!

Made This For My Mom
Saw this on the Wilton site. Had just learned to do a cake with fondant. Thought it turned out. the only problem was the high humidity in my area. The flowers did get as dry as I would have liked. I flavored each color differently. Used Satin Ice rolled fondant. Very pleased. 2 layers-with butter custard in between.
