Pulled Sugar Flowers
This is a simple design showing a pulled sugar base, pulled sugar support piece in green, pulled sugar rose, daffodil, and there is a really small rose in the back that can't been seen very well in this shot. I also put in a striped ribbon in pink and yellow. To add another touch, I broke a blown sugar bubble and put a couple of pieces behind the rose up front. The base is black with a bit of gold luster dust pulled into it. Comments and suggestions welcome!

Hollywood/film Theme
This cake was made as a donation for a gala. Very rich chocolate cake from scratch w/ chocolate ganache with modeling chocolate around the outside. A strip of fondant with modeling chocolate squares to make the "film". I used blown sugar balls and poured sugar for the decorations on top. I made my own mold for the main part of the display (first time doing that!) and used cookie cutters in the hart shape for the rest. I actually made two of these.. One sold for $200, the other for $275 for a great cause

Margarita Anyone?
Dinner will be authentic Mexican food, so we kept with that theme and did a margarita theme cake. Cake is chocolate with chocolate ganache filling. Fondant that covers the cake is butter rum flavored. Cake topper with 50 is pulled sugar, with pulled sugar bow. Bow pieces made out of fondant covered with eatable paint and sugar. Limes are fondant and painted with eatable paint. Each cake was torted so this cake is chocolate upon chocolate upon chocolate!

Pulled Sugar Rose & Leaves
Dark blue pulled sugar rose. I haven't made any in quite a while, so I thought I would use up some sugar! This is only about the 5th rose I have ever made. For those looking to try this kind of thing, I did this with out the aid of a warming box. I kept my sugar warm in my oven set to 300 degrees. I brought it out to work with it on a silpat mat (it is handy to have at least 2 of them! I had a heating lamp over my project so the sugar didn't cool as fast. I am sure having a warming box would help.

Celtic Wedding Cake
This cake has a Celtic heart and a Celtic braid. I don't like how the heart turned out, will do a different technique next time like a butter cream transfer or color flow. Fondant flowers in red and black around the sides. This is a 6" 10" cake. Red velvet with cream cheese filling. Buttercream frosting.

Gumpaste Pregnant Woman With Wardrobe And Dresses
This is still in progress, but I had to share. Pregnant woman made out of pastilliage and gumpaste. Her hair is gum paste and some brown royal icing. The wardrobe is gumpaste. Dresses and hangers are also made out of gumpaste. A small piece of wire was used for hanger as well. This will be a complete scene on top of a baby shower cake. I still have more pieces to make.

Baby Shower Cake 2 Give You Hope With Your Decorating!
Ok, This will give everyone hope. I made this great cake, & the ganache didn't set up right and I had a soupy mess! Ran to costco, got a sheet cake and took all the birthday party decorations off. Smoothed out the frosting, rolled out some fondant and covered that bad boy to make it into a baby shower cake. The decorations I made ahead of time. The booties are made with a gumpaste/ fondant base. The booty is tulle and covered in cornelli lace. The skirt was tulle with royal icing. Hope 2 all, Dana
