Princess Castle
Thanks for looking...a little bit about the cake which is inspired from a bunch of cakes from Cake Central and various cake artists. The hill is styrofoam covered in white fondant and painted.

Mens Softball Birthday
This is what the customer ordered...hmmm...white cake with french vanilla mousse filling on 1/2 sheet covered in BC, ball is yellow cake with french vanilla mousse covered in BC, and bat is single layer chocolate. Candies on outside are poured milk chocolate molds. I don't care for this but she drew it and I made it.

Harvest Full Moon And Starry Sky
White Chocolate and Chocolate cake alternating with white chocolate mousse filling. This was a practice cake to try my new Magic Line square pans (love them!) and also to try the Whipped Cream Buttercream recipe from this site - definitely a not so sweet buttercream had a bit of difficulty with smoothing but got there with a hot knife...

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom - for daughter's preschool class - the children's book by that name is about the small alphabet letters climbing a coconut tree -- so here it is...the tree is made from rice krispie treats, the fronds are paper and the coconuts are hardened and painted fondant....

Practice Cake
I mini cake to practice some things I wanted to try. First, tried my gold coloring to see what color I could get. Next, tried dry brushing gold luster on the crusted buttercream - didn't like it so well clumped up a bit too much. Lastly, played with my new gold dragees that I love - really dresses things up.

Dream Whip Icing Practice
This is an alternating layer strawberry and white with strawberry BC filling. Trying out the Dreamy Cream from this site -- tastes good but is so soft to work with and doesn't smooth well -- but will keep it in mind for cakes when I don't want a smooth finish because the taste is nice.
