I made this for my daughter's fourth birthday. I know there are LOTS of castle cakes on CC and I looked through almost all of them to get lots of inspiration. This is my version. Cakes are 6 inch and 10 inch. I used clear glitter sprinkles grinded down to almost a powder to accent the pink.
I am very proud of this cake. It was all buttercream, each layer a different design. The bride gave me a photo from a bride magazine and it was impossible to duplicate but this is my version and she loved it.
all freehand
This cake was actually a wedding cake but I thought it looked more like a birthday cake.
royal icing "R" and detailed with pearl dragees
This cake was for a teenager. The board was covered with wrapping paper and then with contact paper. I also added the dragees. I think they are not edible but they sure do look good on a cake.
I used the pearl dragees around the bib..thought it added a nice touch.
chocolate buttercream, chocolate wafer border with ganache topping
chocolate buttercream dots and strawberries attached with toothpicks. I love how this cake turned out. Also this was the first time I tried the chocolate swirls. I thought they added to an otherwise ordinary cake.
all deocrations are in decorator icing. I learned a hard lesson on this one. I put the black diamonds on and the next morning each diamond had a nice pink stripe running from the bottom of the diamond down to the border. There was nothing I could do but take each one off and redo them the morning of the wedding. I almost cried. Also I think the silver dragees were a nice complement to the colors.
This was for a shower at my church. The M was royal icing.
A baby shower cake made to match the fabric from the nursery. It looks like quite a chic nursery. Everything was done in decorator icing.

The duck is a toy and the embelishments are stickers.

A cake I did for my brother who LOVES hamburgers. My first attempt at one of these. The meat is chocolate cake iced with brownish gray icing mixed with chocolate crumbs. The cheese is decorator icing mixed with alot of powdered sugar and rolled out. The rest of the condiments are just icing piped on. It wasn't too bad but it was a little tricky to ice.
A closeup of the pig made of decorator icing with alot of powdered sugar added.
The animal figures are made with decorator icing that I added alot of powdered sugar to so I could pick it up and mold it. They were actually quite easy.
Just something for a man and a lady's birthday
