My son's 21st birthday cake. The blackjack represents 21!
This cake was for my oldest son's 2nd birthday (24 years ago). I had so much fun creating and making my kids birthday cakes.
Made this cake for my boss (a Doctor). The bottom layer is supposed to represent a marble cheese platter. Once again any suggestions or comments are appreciated.
This is the first and only wedding cake I've ever made (for my sister). My life has now slowed down (empty nest) so I can devote more time to improve my decorating skills. My next step is to learn to make fondant. Please any suggestions or comments are greatly appreciated.
I have been making cakes as a hobby for many years only for family and close friends. All comments and suggestions are welcome as I would like to improve my skills. Thanks for your feedback.
I had trouble with the bow drying. Went to the forums and found out I should have used Tylose powder. It was too late for that, the cake was to be picked up the next day. I live in Florida and learned that the humidity can be a huge factor in fondant not drying. So, I put the bow in a back bedroom with a room air conditioner blowing directly on it. Also, set up a dehumidifier and voila it was hardened within a few hours. In between the hearts are little silver engagement rings.
Friend's daughter received her Master's degree from FAU and wanted something with the logo. The Logo and cap are made of fondant, the tassel is embroidery floss.
