Bumble Bee Cupcakes
Made these for my sister's baby shower. The bee's are made out of satin ice fondant. I used an edible black marker for the eye's. To make the smile cut a straw in half (long ways) and press into the fondant. It makes a perfect smiley face :). For the wings I had some mini vanilla melting chips for making candy and I broke those in half and stuck down in the fondant.

Swirly Wedding Cake
This was my very first wedding cake. I made it for my sister's wedding. I used the white almond sour cream cake recipe with indydebi's buttercream icing. I also made a home made raspberry filling. I had a really hard time getting the icing smooth so it's by far from perfect. I used the swirly imprint thing from Wilton, but also did a few freehand swirly's. Everyone loved it, but I think it'll be my last wedding cake for a while ;)

Baby Bootie Petit Fours
My first time doing petit fours. I don't think I'll make them ever again either ;) . They were a lot of work, but I'm really proud of how they turned out. These are also proof that I judge my work too harshly, because I didn't really think they were all that great, but everyone loved them! The baby bootie was made out of royal icing.

Golf Cake
I made this for my husband's 30th birthday. I got the idea from several other cakes here on CC. It is a WASC with buttercream icing. I made the tree using a sugar cone with royal icing leaf tip. The sandtraps are nilla wafers ground up in the food processor. My writing isn't perfect, but I was really pleased with how this cake came out.
