Microphone Cupcakes
These are microphones to go along with the American Idol cake I did. I had problems getting my cupcakes to rise very much in these ice cream cones so I baked a little bit in the ice cream cones and then made regular cupcakes in the Wilton silicone baking cups (which are just the right size) and flipped them over to put on top of the cones. That gave the height that I wanted for the microphones. Then they are just frosted with buttercream icing.

American Idol Cake
This is a cake I did for an 11yr. old girl. Thanks to kstgelais4 for posting your pics. I showed your pics to the little girl and she loved the cake with the microphones. I also did the microphones but they are in a different pic. My cake is just a single layer 10" with marshmallow fondant. I also made the logo from fondant by covering cardboard with fondant and then writing on it in buttercream.

Present Cake
This is a cake I did for my grandma's 87th birthday. It's a 12" 2 layer white cake with white buttercream in between the layers. Then it's covered with marshmallow fondant and a huge fondant bow. I had to transport this cake 6 hours so the bow was assembled after we arrived. It was the first time for me doing a bow so big. Next time I need to give it more time to dry out.

89Th Birthday
I did this cake for my husband's grandmother's birthday. It's a double layer white cake with strawberry jam in between the layers. The cake is covered in buttercream icing with all of the flowers being made from buttercream. I used over 100 flowers on this cake. It's a variation of the "mom" cake from the wilton yearbook but instead of mom I put her age.

3 Tier Fondant Birthday Cake
This is a birthday cake I did for my 11 year old niece. It's a design from the Wilton 2007 book but I changed it a little. I didn't have the spiral roller to make the design on the swag so I used my fondant cutter with a decorative edge and cut out the swags so the design is on the edge. The top and bottom layers are both white cake but the middle layer is rice krispie treats because she didn't need that much cake. Everything is covered in marshmallow fondant and the candles are made from fondant as well
