Butter/Yellow cake, Buttercream Icing, photo provided by Grandma. A fairytale birthday for a 9 year old girl.
This cake was not "cut" to serve. The "iceburg" was made by placing cupcakes into a base-cake. I took a glass to cut "inserts" for the cupcakes into the base-cake. Frosted the entire "iceburg" with buttercream icing, and then decorated with "snow", add the snow's glisten with white sugar decorator sprinkles and don't forget the penguins made of fondant. I had so much fun creating this...and serving it was just as fun. Each guest got a cupcake and a penguin.
This was an "office" birthday cake for October birthdays. Cake is chocolate, iced with Buttercream, then Chocolate Ganache "allowed" to drip down the sides. Then, just went to town with fall foliage and a bird for harmony. The celebrant actually took the bird and foliage and placed them in a water-globe for long term viewing.
This was a party cake for my sister in law who loves sunflowers and cats. The butterfly was thrown in for luck! (It was her 40th!)
Chocolate cake w/buttercream icing. My favorite part of this cake is the tongue, which was an afterthought. I don't like the lighting/coloring of this pic. The puppy was obviously the snow-white that Westies are noted for.
This is practically a 're-make'! The original basinet bonnet was made of cake...until it toppled off the cake and took half of the top layer of cake with it! What a disaster, and I had to think quick. There was no time to re-bake. Well, if anyone is interested it's a funny story. Meanwhile, except for the bonnet, which is now made of plastic milk carton and fabric ruffles, the cake is decorated all in buttercream icing.
Decorated in buttercream.
Cats, Hatbox and Ball of Yarn....ALL cake and icing!
Heart is "frosted" with Chocolate Granache, covered with sliced strawberries and trimmed with buttercream. Base cake is 100% Buttercream, with the exception of the cinnamon candy hearts and Granache writing.
The letters are made of "finger jello". I used the leaf tip for Elmo's fur. Other than that, just your basic Elmo.
This was two 9x13 cakes "overlapped" to make a 3-D wave of the flag. It also served as a belated birthday cake for two motorcycle riders. So, I incorporated the "freedom" theme with the bikes on the open road across the flag. The road had to bridge the wave of the flag, so I did that, too!
All buttercream icing. Cake was made for my nephew's HS graduation, utilizing his school colors. Not perfect, but gave me a chance to practice on all my "bordering" skills.
I got the idea from your site! This cake was for my twin sister-in-laws who were turning 40! It was a big hit at the party! There were some pics taken that I cannot share!
