This was for a friend. I wasn't crazy about the blue roses or the columns but she REALLY wanted the columns and the blue roses. I felt it ended up OK. The fondant is homemade marshmallow. The roses are from gumpaste from a mix. The fresh flower arrangements are mine too. I was at this wedding & cut the cake & we almost ran out!. They ordered for 160 and there were 175 there, many who came back for seconds. Yikes! I guess it tasted good ;-)
I posted this earlier but this is a better, closer photo & you can see the details. It is white chocolate, poured thin & roughly smoothed out & cut to make rectangle tiles.
This is a wedding cake with a theme of limes. The fruit/roses under the glass is fresh. I got the idea off of here where someone had repicated a book photo? Anyway, the bride LOVED the idea. We did the cake in white chocolate plaques overlapping each other & then the glass vase full of limes & roses with another bouquet of limes and roses on top. My camera did kind of a bad job for some reason. Plus there was a light directely above it that was glaring. But it was a pretty cool cake.
From a wedding cake I made this past weekend. This was the topper. It really dressed up an otherwise simple cake
This Cinderella cake is for my daughter's play at school. They are Cinderella's mice so I tried to incorporate them into the cake. Everything is edible. Cinderella's dress & the turrets are rice krispie treats. The other stuff is marshmellow fondant.
This was cheesecake with buttercream. The lillies are fresh ones.
The coolest thing about this cake was the flavor. Mint chocolate! I made a dense chocolate cake & then torted with mint mousse. I flavored my simple sugar with Bailey's Mint and then crushed Mint Oreos & layered those in there too. It was yummy. Still haven't heard back from the bride & groom but I have a feeling they loved it.

I like this cake as it was simple and pretty. Purple & white marshmallow fondant with royal icing hearts.
Reese's pieces cut in half make the people and the jumbotron isn't edible. I just printed in on cardstock cause I ran out of time.
This was for a girl leaving a vet's clinic. Lots of fun. I baked some small rounds and a small sheet cake. I carved the dog from all of that.
For a friend who surprised her friend with tickets to a game. This was the way she told her.
This bride wanted Dairy Queen ice cream cake and real cake. So I made the main part of this regular cake that sat out throughout the reception. Then I had order DQ cakes & scraped everything off of them & put on my own frosting & carved them so they'd slide into the main cake. A few minutes before cake cutting time I slid the ice cream cake into place. It worked out pretty well & was very popular! Every person got some of each: ice cream & cake!
Navy blue bow, gumpaste flowers and ivy, and silver roping and pearls at the quilting. Heart shaped.
I got this idea from this website! Thanks. Whoever else did it, did it better but I let two teen girls help me & we had so much fun giggling over their silly looking animals. It was for a baby shower with a farm theme. Totally loved this idea and loved a chance to use it.
Square cakes turned slightly with marzipan fruits and gumpaste flowers. I'd never done a cascade before and after I was done I think it should have been fuller. But I'm sure the bride was happy.
A simple little cake.
This is a homemade cupcake stand (husband built it) with pina colada cupcakes with orange frosting and white chocolate shells. The navy is just fabric thumbtacked on to look like a waterfall with the top cake "pouring" down the stand.
Very fun wedding cake. Two tiers Key Lime cake & one cappucino cake. Terrifying top tier. I go tthe angle too severe & kept being afraid it would fall over. It didn't but I think next time I'll do the angles a bit less.
This is chocolate cake with sugar cookies. It was for an anniversary party that fell on a blue moon & thus the theme of the party was "Once in a blue moon."
This is the kind of cake I dread, "simple & elegant" is what the bride says but what it really translates to is "no room for error." This one I thought came out really well. It was an outdoor wedding on a 90 degree day but the bride said the cake stood up with no worries.

I got this idea from a book for a simple idea for a zoo cake. My 1st grader's class is going to the zoo tomorrow so I made them this. They loved eating the eyeballs.
This was a bon voyage cake for a couple going on an Alaskan cruise. She loves kayaking, thus the kayaker.
Buttercream with fondant pearls and rose petals. It was a very easy cake and I think elgegant. I may actually know what to recommend when a bride (which EVERY bride says) says "I just want simple & elegant." lol I charged $320.00 & I live in Ohio.
