Frozen Buttercream Transfer of Grateful Dead's Steal Your Face 'Stealie'. My first attempt at this technique. Very surprised at how well it came out!
My attempt at Jerry Garcia for my nephew's birthday. All BC. He loved it.
Inspired by Denise's 'Hung ths Sun, Moon & Stars' cake for my niece's 16th birthday. Iced with BC. I don't have an airbrush, so I improvise by blending and swirling colors. The number, stars and swirls are gumpaste and fondant. I used luster dust mixed with vodka and painted the silver swirls on after the BC had crusted. I know your not supposed to do that on BC, but, with a light touch it worked OK.
All BC. Roses and pussywillows for a can't wait for spring luncheon at work.
Wilton's Big Batch sugar cookies and Bitter Chocolate sugar cookies decorated with Wilton's Poured Cookie Icing. Ideas copied from and inspired by this site. Thanks!!

A fudge marble cake with Peanut Butter Fudge filling as requested for my niece's 11th birthday. She recently got a cockatiel bird, "Sydney", and of course wanted that for her cake. I wasn't sure how I was going to do it, but it came out better than expected. What matters is, she was delighted!
Three tiers of white cake with Orange Zest BC filling. Satin Ice Fondant and sugar pearls accented with fondant ribbon tails and fresh flowers provided by the bride's florist,and arranged by me. The brides niece/flower girl was just out of camera range, saying she was going to "put my head right in it!".
My BIL's 60th birthday celebration cake. He has started a small vineyard and is bottling his first wine this year. This is a repilca of one of his bottles with his label. All is edible. Crate and bottle are cake with fondant accents. Packing is white chocolate shavings. Grapes are real.

All BC for my niece's birthday at school. Got the idea from CC.
For an Irish wedding (duh!). All BC with fondant shamrocks and celtic knots painted with silver luster dust. Making all the knots from a purchased mold was MUCH more time consuming than expected. File that under live & learn!

14", a Double 9" tier, and 5" tiers of maple walnut cake with maple BC icing. This cake traveled almost 500 miles to our niece's wedding. Each tier was filled, crumb iced, and boxed separately for the trip, and put together in a hotel room. The callas and initials plaque were GP, made ahead and carefully packed for the trip. The newlyweds loved the cake, and that made all the work worth it!
