Sleeping Dragon Castle
this was an attempt to create a castle cake with 2 dragons. I had one laying down and that one did awesome but i tried to have one standing and it flopped big time now i don't know if it flopped because rice krispies just don't hold standing or if it was because of the red food dye i added, making it more liquid although not really. *shrug*

Checks And Daisies
i made a rum mocha chocolate cake and frosted it with chocolate buttercream icing. i tried to make a checkered pattern of blue and blakc diamonds and it didn't really work. and i had these great yellow and orange daisies already made so i used them as a border. the top of the cake is a candy box. but i forgot to fill it with candy.

Petit Fours
petit fours are by far and away my favorite thing to eat and make. we hada local bakery that made the absolute best petit fours ever and when tyhey closed i searched in vain to find petit fours that tasted the same. and not finding them i decided to try recipes until i found the right cake component and the right icing consistency to make what i remember. and man are they yummy
