Africa & Israel Themed Topsy-Turvy
6", 8", 10" topsy turvy cake. 6" coconut cake with lemon filling, 8" carrot cake with orange filling, 10" chocolate cake with ganache. All covered in vanilla buttercream & homemade fondant. All fondant details hand-cut. Gumpaste bow, buttercream borders. This is my second attempt at a topsy-turvy. I made it for my borther-in-law's engagement party. He's South African (top tier) and marrying an Israeli girl (bottom tier - Jerusalem theme). It took me HOURS, but I was very happy with the end result. Unfortunately the orange filling in the middle tier was too slippery and I almost had a disaster, I had to turn the middle tier to balance it better and it wasn't as topsy-turvy as the original (see undecorated). I used the cutting a hole method. They loved it :)

Pink & Green Batmitzvah Cake
10", 6" chocolate cake with vanilla filling & frosting. Covered in homemade fondant. All fondant details, painted in pearl dust. The grandmother ordered this cake and wanted the cake on my homepage. I had to adjust it for a 2 tier (the original is 3 tier), and I also embossed the ribbons, the colours are more pastel. I was happy with how it turned out and they loved it!

Barmitzvah Cake
14",12",10" chocolate cake, chocolate ganache filling and chocolate buttercream. Fondant with buttercream accents and satin ribbon. The customer wanted a specific type of Kosher ingredients and they gave me so many problems, My normal fondant recipe didn't work with the ingredients and I was out of pocket to buy ready-mde and it was horrible to work with! T"G it turned out well and they loved it, I was ready to throw it at a wall LOL It's my biggest order (moey and size wise) so far.
