Popcorn Cake Pops
These cake pops were inspired by the popcorn cake pops in the Wilton Cake Pop book. They are chocolate fudge cake balls with marshmallows attached to the bottom then dipped in white chocolate and dusted with yellow pearl dust. And....they taste AMAZING!!! A labor of love, but love the final result. Popcorn container purchased at the dollar store.

Floral Fondant Impression With Bow
This cake is covered with buttercream then with individually cut MMF circles and imprinted with clear flexible stamps purchased at Jo Ann's Etc. I needed to give the circles a "floral" look to match the invitation, so I put the flexible stamp on the circle of MMF and used my flat meat tenderizer to gently press the stamp into the MMF. The clear stamps worked out great, and they have tons of different designs to choose from! Bow is made from gumpaste.

Purple Ballet Slippers
This cake is iced smooth with buttercream and accented with MMF ballet slippers and buttercream rose buds. Child requested cotton candy flavored cake. Ended up using Berry Blue Jello in with a white cake mix and added pink icing coloring to make it lavendar colored. Turned out really good!

Pink Roses & Buds
This cake is 2 - 11 x 15 sheet cakes filled with vanilla cream and iced smooth with vanilla buttercream. A lady from church wanted roses, which I do not like to do, so I decided to make MMF roses for the first time. I have some practicing to do, but overall, I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
This cake is iced smooth with buttercream. Beatles are a FBCT. The picture didn't turn out very good, as it is showing creases in the transfer that aren't showing up just looking at the cake. The flash amplified it's imperfections, but I am still pleased with it.

Icarly
This cake is iced smooth with buttercream with MMF accents. Design was taken from a few different iCarly cakes I have done recently. This cake is cake #2 for a 6 year old's birthday celebration spanning a 6 week period (she is getting 3 different birthday cakes). She loved the computer from her cake a couple of weeks ago, so I made this computer on a larger scale.
