Another Beach Cake

We live at the beach and make a lot of "beach cakes" shells and sand with chairs on top, or hibiscus flowers... I convinced this girl off of the sand and instead used blue colored dragees, and a sand colored fondant border (with of course, the chocolate shells!)

Ivory With Pink Roses

Ivory fondant covered topsy turvy, with fondant vines and leaves, and RI roses. I normally do the cut in to make it level stacking method for topsy turvy's, but this time I stacked it crooked. I was very happy with it. I also had the joy of doing this whole cake with pneumonia, so it was quite a big relief to deliver it :)

Wedgewood Jewelery Box

The bottom layer is a 12" round with a 10" round cut in half and then crescent-ed and stuck on. Each layer was done this way, just getting smaller. Covered in fondant, stencil, brush embroidery, and a tiny rose mold was used for the decorating. Gumpaste gardenias, roses, leaves, and other blossoms. I *loved* making this cake. The bride sent me a picture of a wedgewood jewelery box that she had, and told me I could surprise her with whatever I wanted. She loved it, everyone did.

Practicing

I had some extra batter and decided to practice the tall tapered tier. I just love that look. I'm not very impressed with my version of it, I couldn't use a fondant smoother because of the shape, so it was kind of lumpy. Also playing with my new cutters from GSA! Gumpaste flowers.

Green With Pearls

I have another titled Coral with Pearls. Green buttercream with a lot of edible pearls from GSA. White Chocolate flowers. 12", 10", 8" and 6" cakes were chocolate with hazelnut filling. She did not order a cake stand, but once it was on the table and surrounded by all of the table decor, the cake was lost. We had the tree trunk from another cake and it worked perfectly! Bride loved it.

Olive Branches

latte colored buttercream on a 14", 12" 8" and 6" round. I put it on flimsy board and wiggled it after the buttercream crusted - it gave this awesome old rustic stucco kind of look. Piped on olive branches, then painted them with a few different dusts to give dimension.
