40Th

This is a cake I made for my sister's 40th. I was trying to think of something personal, so I went with adjectives to describe her. The cake was a 12-9-6 covered in BC with fondant accents. The 12" was choc. cake with BC filling. The 9" was vanilla cake with raspberry filling and the 6" was both choc. and vanilla cake with fudge filling. It was a big hit. TFL.

Pretty In Pink

4 tiers in slightly varied shades of pink tinted fondant with a faux finish. Fondant shapes with RI accents and hand painted swirls. Pearls are hand made with fondant. One of my entries in the Queen City Cake Show. Lots of fun to make. TFL

One of my entries for the Queen City Cake Show last weekend. It won second place. Most of it is fondant. The butterfly was drawn on rice paper with food markers.

Baby's Playroom

One of my entries for the Queen City Cake Show last weekend. It won first place and best of beginner. I was thrilled. The floor is fondant that I hand etched using a skewer. Then I painted it. The baby and toys are all modeled by hand.

Luau

A 50th birthday, surprise, luau themed party. This design is based on one from the gallery, but I don;t remember whose cake. :-( If it was yours, thanks for the inspiration.

Boy Or Girl?

This cake was made for first time parents. They brought me a sealed envelope with baby's gender. The BC filling is blue. They'll find out it's a boy today. They wanted the cake to be neutral....boy or girl....on the outside. They're having a party later when they'll cut the cake and have the big reveal. Cake is a 10 inch marble with BC filling. Outside is BC with MMF decorations. I was happy with my bears....first ones I've ever made. TFL

"flowertopia"

This was one of my entries in the Queen City Cake Show. I was so excited that this one won first place in the beginner any occasion category. It is a combination of RI and fondant flowers. The girls are hand molded with fondant and their faces are hand painted. This was fun to make. TFL

Flapper

This is a 6-8-10 tiered cake covered in white fondant and then in purple fondant that was covered in sanding sugar and cut into strips. Each strip was then applied to the cake the make the layers for the dress. The headband and feather on top are also fondant and the feather has some painting for dimension. TFL

Halloween

These were goodies for DD's Halloween party.

Cupcakes

These are for my brother for his birthday. They are all devil's food cake. The ones with choc. bc icing have white chocolate on them. The ones with white bc icing have crushed heath bars on them. I was trying to come up with something simple, yet masculine. I see some got damaged in the container, but I imagine they'll still taste good. I hope he likes them. TFL

Welcome Back

A cake to welcome back the teachers and other staff members at DD's school. All BC with fondant chalk and eraser.

Madi

A cake for DD's 3rd birthday. She and her sister helped place some of the flowers and squiggles, so I know it's not perfect, but they had fun and that's what's important.

Boys' Birthday

Baby Girl Cookie

NFSC with tobas. Just a small gift. I drew this freehand and can see that the baby's head is a little goofy. I was trying to replicate a picture where baby's head was turned just slightly. Maybe not the best picture to try to copy! Oh well. I'm a critique subgroup member. TFL

Cheerleader Cookie

NFSC with tobas. Just a small gift. I'm a critique subgroup member. TFL

Horse Cookie

NFSC with Tobas. Just a small gift. I'm a critique subgroup member.

Gift Basket

I know this isn't all cookies...it's an end of the year gift for DD's teacher. Each large foam flower is an "envelope" with a gift cert. inside. As a class, we collected $200 for certificates. Anyway, my idea for presentation was "A garden of Gift Certificates" and this is what I created. The cookies in there are NFSC with Toba's. I'm a critique subgroup member. TFL

Baseball Cookies

NFSC with Toba's. Made these for DD's "Home Run Readers" celebration at school.

Good-Bye Student Teacher

DD's teacher asked me to make a cake for a "good-bye" party for the student teacher they've had since January. She had no design ideas. I thought it'd be cute to make it look like the kind of paper they always use...with an area for drawing and an area for writing. The picture and writing are meant to look childish and the sparkly apples on the sides just seemed like they'd be fun for first graders! The cake is a 9x13 w/ BC icing and fondant apples. I'm a critique subgroup member. TFL

Cross

I made this for my friend's DD and DS. Cake is a 9x13 cut and shaped into a cross. The mosaic is pieces of colored fondant. The cupcakes are devil's food with BC icing and RI crosses. I think, in retrospect, I made the crosses a little large, but I kind of like how they look. I'm a critique subgroup member. All comments welcome and appreciated. TFL
