I made this cake for two friends for their joint birthday party. The cake was vanilla w/blueberries, and the inspiration came from three of her most famous outfits - Paparazzi (the bottom tier), her MTV VMAs performance (middle tier) and Telephone (top tier and cigarette sunglasses on top).

This is a cake and some of the cupcakes I made for a bride's wedding that had a Monarch butterfly theme. I used gelatin to make the wings of the butterflies, and then black fondant for the bodies. While desperately searching for a way to make realistic butterflies I came across a tutorial here, on Cake Central, that taught me all about making gelatin butterflies and flowers, and this is my first attempt at butterflies. Thank you so much Cake Central (and all the commenters with their helpful tips!)
I chose the moment where Ponyo was running on the water, and the waves were morphing into fish.

I made this cake for a good friend of mine for her birthday over the summer.

The cake was cinnamon with chocolate buttercream. Thanks for looking!

This is a chocolate cake with buttercream frosting inspired by a Charles Demuth painting. Used a FBCT, second time ever. The couple I made this for was celebrating their five year anniversary, the woman runs an art gallery so this seemed appropriate. Unfortunately cream cheese frosting was giving me major problems so I feel like the part around the FBCT looks really awful but oh well! Live and learn I guess!
This my first paid cake...second time doing a buttercream transfer (first time was the practice for this one). Came out ok I think! Drawing is by the guy from that cartoon The Critic, found it online. Cake itself is chocolate.

This is a Darth Vader I made for a friend who works for Starbucks(as an exec)...hence the white, green and black color scheme. I've made cakes using this cakepan before and have been using different color schemes cause Black and Grey get boring. Does anyone have any recommendations for good food dye? I used gel, some brand I dont remember, but after everyone had eaten they all had black and green tongues and fingers. I dont want that happening again! Thanks!
