Chocolate Christmas Cake
Swiss Chocolate 3 layer cake...Chocolate Buttercream... The little red boot and candy canes were last minute accents for a last minute cake. On a side note, on the way to church, my purse took a flying leap and smashed the cake lol. So I did what any good cake decorator does and THREW IT AWAY...omg I am sooo bad with imperfection lol...I just told everyone I was too busy with orders for a cake that nite, and luckily I had bought a huge fruit platter to take as well ...whew!

This is a cake that I made my Grandmother, affectionately called BB, for Mothers day years ago, with the assistance of my own mother on Flowers. The flowers are royal icing and buttercream leaves. We made the cattails on spaghetti noodles, and the grasses on floral wires, piped with royal. It was a scratch chocolate cake with pecan filling and chocolate buttercream basketweave.

Country Roads Take Me Home...
I made this cake 6 years ago for my hubbys 25th bday...how much better I have gotten lol... It was made from the horseshoe pan, cut and reattached like a winding road. Hes a city boy and we moved to my hometown...he married a country girl, so this cake was his welcome-ing in! I used buttercream and toys to decorate.

Snowflake Cake
This is a French Vanilla tiered cake, 10inch and 6 inch round. It was for a Little Girls First Birthday party. I freehanded the snowflakes out of white chocolate and after hardening, transferred them to the cake, making sure to position them to add dimension. The mother was thrilled with it. Onsite I added a small border to the top layer and the topper she had bought (a pretty winter fairy)....neither of which I got a picture of.

Rhett And Scarlett
My cousin requested her birthday cake to be Gone with the Wind Theme. This nearly killed me ... lol.. I chose to do an FBCT of one of the old movie posters (where Atlanta burned behind them). I think it turned out really well for the most part. I added yellow roses with orange shimmers in place of borders. I overpiped the ruffle on her dress for dimension and "lightly painted" on facial accents and Rhetts chesthair lol.... Thanks for looking

Auburn Tigers Fbct
This is one of my most popular Bday cakes, since I live in Alabama and college ball is so popular. It is a time consuming FBCT but turns out so detailed, that I just love it. I use my black icing with the smallest tip I have and just kind of "feather and paint" the details in first with that. When that is frozen, then I add the other colors one at a time, smoothing and then freezing in between always. I think the added time makes all the difference...as I always get the WOW effect from the bday boy or girl!
