Kylie's Sweet Sixteen
This cake was for my nieces sweet 16. The bottom in a 10" banana creme cake, the middle was an 8" hot fudge cake, and the top was a 6" black forest cake. All were covered in black airbrushed chocolate pettinice with white pettinice stars (americolor electric colors). The topper was gumpaste and I inserted glow stick bracelets into the pillars, and attached one to the underside of the cake plate, and around the topper. They didn't show up too well in the pics. Thanks for looking

Scratch Ticket Cake
This was made for a friend who loves scratch tickets. It is a chocolate cake, all buttercream with candy sprinkles and a colorflow scratch ticket complete with silver luster stuff. I actually made the ticket a big winner, and then covered the numbers up with the silver, so if one were to wipe it off, it would be like a real ticket. i tried to make a dime, in hindsight i should have used a chocolate coin, but I didn't think that far ahead. Thanks for looking.

Stained Glass Sheet Cake
This is a half vanilla, half chocolate 1/4 sheet cake. All buttercream with royal icing pointsettias and piping gel for the stained glass. There is a white on white border around the stained glass and cornelli lace but you can't really see it, and theres also some rainbow pixie dust to make it sparkle. Thanks for looking

Nightmare Before Christmas Cake
This cake was a disaster from the start! I can't even begin to say how many things went wrong, but I did my best to make it work, thank god it was just a practice cake for my teen niece, who was more happy that it was covered in her favorite colors and she got to keep the jack mug of roses. The spots all over it are from us bringing it to my sisters in the rain and it not being covered. This was my 1st stacked cake, my 1st time w/ fresh flowers, 1st time w/ pixie dust, and a lot of other firsts.

Birthday Cake For Mom
What a pain in the behind to do the letters.... I kept breaking them!! The cake is vanilla tinted lilac with ivory buttercream and royal icing flowers and letters. Sorry for the bad cell phone pics, I keep forgetting to take pictures of the cakes until its too late. Lucky for me my new phone has a camera, but I missed out of a bunch of others. :(

Fondant Roses For Class 3 Final
The burgandy color see to be different in every room depending on lighting, so I decided to coat the petals in violet luster dust and the calyx in avocado. I'm not too happy with how they turned out, so I guess I will be practicing them until i have roses coming out of my ears!
