Attempted a graduation cake for my bestfriend's daughter. Gotta Love Florida! Middle tier was strawberry/marshmallow filled, and melted almost instantly when we took it outside to transport!! What a mess! Ended up with two tiers and a seperate cake. Tiki turned out great though! He was made of Rice Crispies and MMF. All tasted great! An of COURSE I didn't take pictures BEFORE transport! UUUUGGHHH!!
Inspired by Nunuk's Wine bottle cake. All MMF, except ribbon. Fresh red and green grapes. Made during a time crunch so not as "sharp" as I would have liked to have it, but it was a hit! My Mother loved it! (her birthday)
Made this for a 40th birthday of a friend at work. Inspired by several on CC. Tombstone and grave are both cake. Tombstone is covered in fondant, grave in crushed oreo cookies. I actually added more powdered sugar to the tombstone to give it "age" and used the fondant flaws as extra cracks. The flower was the "added touch" that it needed at the end.
Inspired by many cakes on CC. All done in buttercream as no-one at work is real fond of MMF. I'm partial to the MMF, myself. SO MUCH easier to work with!!
Got my inspiration from several cakes on here as well as magazine (for top layer) All layers were different cake/filling/icing, covered in Rhonda's Ultimate MMF. I shoulda made my layer sizes different sizes, but overall I was okay with it.
Taken from the pages of the Wilton 2007 Yearbook. I did not use the Wilton pan. Instead I used 2- 8" round pans and a 8" square and carved the arms , neck and hat myself. Everything else is pretty much just like the picture in the magazine, I think. I was SO proud!! It only won 2nd place in a contest at my Husband's work.....the other cake was mostly plastic.....not even close.....POLITICS!!! UUUGGGHH!!!!!
Cake is straight from the Wilton 2007 yearbook. We only used a 9x13 pan, so did not have as much room as we would have liked, and our Palm Trees never hardened enough to place on cake, AND we forgot to make the surfboard, so we improvised. That's what I get for just looking at the pictures and not reading directions! hehehe
Didn't turn out as well as I wanted, but HAD to attempt a square cake. Gonna have to really work on learning how to make the bows...I was kinda disappointed, but still having so much fun learning! On to the next class!
Fondant covered, Gumpaste pillbox and flowers, buttercream borders. I'm pretty proud of her, she did a great job!
1st cake from our fondant and gumpaste class. This is my daughter's, she was very upset when she saw that I had put my own cake on here, and not hers......I didn't want to add her cakes without permission!
This was supposed to be my first cake from Fondant and Gumpaste Class. I had a bad time with the "drape" and the "handkerchief" so I kinda got lost somewhere in left field. Everything is Fondant except the Daisies which are Gumpaste and the Ants which are a Fondant/Gumpaste mixture.....Didn't go together very well, will have to work on that.
My Roses look more like Carnations, and had a few issues with the 0trans fat BC. But I was kinda proud otherwise
Before I learned about the tweaking of the 0trans fat Crisco BC. And my filling was overflowing a bit.....Had little "fillingfalls" all around cake. Tried to disquise them best I could
this was so much fun....thought if I could do this, I could conquer the WORLD! How wrong I was!!
