Glittery Butterfly
This is a 1/2 sheet carved into a butterfly shape, decorated with fondant. Used the rainbow disco glitter, so sparkly! The mom wanted me to match the napkins but the colors were truly hideous (really bad shads of coral, olive green, yellow-gold, purple, turquoise), I did the best I could to make it look good LOL.

Blue & Bronze
6"/9" buttecream ice with navy blue and bronze fondant decor. Bronze is luster dust painted on with vanilla. Actually kind of challenging to come up with a sophisticated dinner party type cake that should not look like a wedding cake. This was for a thank you dinner for LAPD volunteers, hence the color scheme. TFL!

Witch's Cauldron Cake
Sooo much fun making this one! It's an 8/9/8" shaped to look like a witch's cauldron, covered in SI black fondant and decorated with fun fondant spooky details. The green goo is a mix of buttercream and piping gel. This is also my first cake donated for the organization Icing Smiles.

Lingerie Bridal Shower
This is a 10" square vanilla cake with strawberry mousse filling and buttercream icing. Decorated with pink and black fondant stripes, pink gumpaste roses, and a little neglige I made with black fondant (I used my lace impression mat which makes it look so neat!) and little pink ruffles and sugar pearl buttons. Had to add the black marabou trim for some drama!

Champagne Bubble Bath 50Th
This is a 9" pink champagne cake with strawberry mousse filling, iced in champagne colored bc, decorated with sugar pearls to resemble champagne bubbles. 50 is fondant, and so is the birthday girl soaking in a champagne bubble bath. The champagne bottle is a candle and there are a few more to place on the cake. I must give credit to petticakes3, saw her bubble bath cake & brainstormed from there. Love how it turned out, TFL!

Lovebirds Anniversary Cake
This is a 4/6" square tiered dusty-blue fondant covered cake with a lovebirds theme. I have seen several of these lovebird cakes on CC and actually found this design is a wedding invitation, and think it is so sweet. Also did a brown fondant rope and yellow flowers. This cake is for my sister and her husband's 5th wedding anniversary. This is also my first time using the tree cut-out as the decorative board, love it!

1St Birthday Sailboat Cake
I made this fondant sailboat to place on a cake my husband's aunt made. Originally she called me the afternoon before & asked if I could make the cake! I agreed to do a sailboat decoration though & quickly looked through cc pages for inspiration. Found the "Ahoy there!" entry into the Nautical/Sailing Cake Contest but don't know who made it. I copied it pretty closely, it's so cute I think!

German Folk Art Ganache Cake
This is a 9" triple layer chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ganache- yes the birthday girl is a choco-holic. This was my first time making my own ganache & working with it & I love it! Cake decorated with fachwerk design on the sides and german folk art inspired top & flowers on the side. Of course it says "happy birthday grandma" in german. All colored decor done in royal icing.

35Th Anniversary Orchid Cake
This is a 4/6/8" square cake iced in buttercream with fondant leaves and bamboo trim (brushed with a mix of brown/ivory gel color). Real orchid decoration. Thanks to everyone who helped me fix the topper which cracked, I was able to salvage it by attaching the white sticks with candy melts.
