My First Guitar Cake
This cake is my first guitar cake. It was a massive cake. So large I could not get it into the freezer! The cake is a vanilla cake with chocolate cream filling. This cake carved beautiful but gave me fits later with the frosting. The cake has gumpaste elements and also chocolate pieces for the three dimensional look. The only non edible item is the strings. TFL :)

Holm Cake
I did this cake for my brother and his new wife. They got married just a few days ago and could not afford a reception or church wedding. It is my brother's first and hopefully only wedding as they are a perfect fit for each other. I wanted them to have something special. So even though I had another large wedding booked I took on gifting this cake and presenting it to them at our annual Memorial Day family picnic. Cake is entirely butter cream frosted. gumpaste plaque with monogram on top.TFL
