This was for a girl, Lynsey, turning Sweet 16. These are her favorite colors. Design came from several different pictures given to me. This is my first 3 tiered cake. Mostly happy with this except for the buttercream and fondant got shiny in the refrigerator. Still need some practice smoothing out buttercream and making bows too. Thanks for looking:)
Fancy Nancy cupcakes for a little girl turning 6.
For a beach picnic. Dk. Chocolate cake, layered with red, white, and blue BC, decorated with BC and fondant flowers. TFL.
This was modeled after a young man's 1972 Chevelle. It looked cartoony, so I went with making it look like the Disney/Pixar CARS character. The car is RKT covered in 50/50 fondant/gumpaste, details painted w/ food coloring and luster dust. Cake is dk. chocolate w/ light chocolate frosting and real chocolate sprinkles. The pictures are printed and laminated. TFL!
This was for a customer whose daughter's birthday sometimes falls on Father's Day and the two "vie" for whose day it is. So, the theme was them boxing. The little accessories are some of their favorite things and interest. I had my problems with it but it was still a fun cake to do.
Short notice cake for newborn's birthday. Dark chocolate cake w/ BC frosting and fondant daisies and handpainted plaque. TFL!
Made for a wedding reheasal dinner. 12" dark chocolate and vanilla cake w/ raspberry filling, chocolate BC, fondant and BC decorations. Side decorations inspired by a wedding cake photo from Google Images (sorry, didn't note who made it).
Ordered by a teacher to celebrate her retirement with her family. 6" Dark chocolate cake, Bailey's cream cheese filling, BC frosting.
This is the second of two cakes I did for two teachers retiring. Strawberry cake (from scratch), whipped cream frosting, BC and fondant decorations. Had to do the writing with a light color because of the bleed factor with the whipped cream frosting. Still need a little practice on writing but overall happy with the outcome of this cake. You can't see it too well in the picture but Maxine has her signature bunny slippers on:)
This is a retirement cake for a teacher who likes frogs. Dk. chocolate cake, chocolate mint frosting, fondant and royal icing decorations. TFL!
This was a last minute order for rainbow polka dot cake. 8" round, Dk. chocolate cake, BC frosting, fondant dots, rose, and heart (used blk. coloring to paint), and ribbon bow.
This was my first time making fondant daisies. The client wanted red, orange, and aqua to match the birthday theme. Wasn't sure about this combination but this is what I came up with and was pretty happy with it when I was finished. Dark chocolate w/ cherry filling, and buttercream frosting. Thanks for looking!
Made this for my birthday. 6" dark chocolate cake and cupcakes with whipped cream buttercream.
Got this idea online. Dark chocolate cake w/ BC, vanilla cupcakes w/ BC.
This was for a 21st birthday. The client wanted the giant cupcake to match the smaller cupcakes with zebra print liners. She also requested a cherry on top with a zebra bow. The smaller cupcakes will have real cherries added to them just before the party. Giant cupcake is dk. chocolate cake with BC frosting with fondant bow, cherry, and liner (zebra stripes painted with food coloring). Cupcakes are creamy, vanilla cake with BC and jimmies. Thanks for looking.
This is my first attempt at a 3-D cake and with using the "fur" tip. I think it turned out OK but my hand sure got tired piping all the fur. I think next time I would like to try MMF for the belly, nose, and feet.
