Going Away
This is for a few guys that are leaving our base. Two are returning to the states, is going to Italy. It turned out really good, though i wanted a gumpaste plane...I didn't try to put it together early enough and the wings wouldn't stick the day of. :( Oh well. It worked, and everyone loved it. All bc icing, yellow cake...laminated picts on toothpicks.

Florida Gators Cake
bottom is two 11x15's put together with a 9x13 on top. Gator is FBCT. I was really pleased with how it turned out, it was for my husband's commander. His wife LOVED it. The cake was so big, and my counters were so small that I had to decorate it on my coffee table!!! All butter cream...half chocolate, half yellow cake on the bottom. TFL. :)

Bear With Blanket
I had to think of something to do for this one. I am a little so so about the fondant bears...I think it needed something else, but the cake I was going to make originally served 68 ppl...the girl ended up only having around 15 ppl at the shower! I knew I needed to downsize and she still ended up taking about 1/3 of the sheet (well what was under the bear) and almost all the bear! TFL.

Bratz Cake
Wasn't sure what I was going to do for this one. I wanted to do a more "bratz" shoe, but couldn't get it to work for me. :( Anyway, at the last minute, I decided to use this one...it was my first attempt at a gumpaste shoe. purse is a 6 in cake cut a little more than half. The bratz logo is colorflow....and the bratz is FBCT. TFL. :)

Troop Farewell
I made this cake for the deploying troops in my husband's squadron. I'd originally wanted to do a 9x13, but his supervisor said she didn't want extra cake and only needed it for 20 ppl...i have a feeling she won't have enough. :( It's a BC cake with fondant flag. Thank you to ShirleyW, Cowspotme and _ChristyB_ for their inspiration and help! :) I only hope these folks like it tomorrow. :) TFL!

My First Attempt At A Gumpaste Shoe
So, I wanted to try it. :) I did...and am not TOO displeased with how it turned out. I learned some crucial lessons (like roll as you go, not in advance) and need to work on smoothing out the toe portion, but othewise, I was really happy...it was WAY easier than I thought. :) TFL

Baby Pooh
This was a yellow cake with bc covered in MMF. I did the pooh with colorflow. It was my first time doing the color flow, coloring and covering cakes with fondant and cutting shapes to adhere. I got the idea from Cakesbyallison as well as others that I don't remember. Thanks for all your help!

Buzz Lightyear
I tried to do BCT with buzz, but realized he had more detail than I thought I could do, so I froze the outline only...only about half of that came out onto the cake, so I had to draw in the rest. Short of spelling the little boy's name wrong (not my mistake, the mistake of the order that was NOT his mom) I was pleased with it. :)

Horse Cake
This was my first attempt at buttercream transfer. It turned out okay, but I forgot to read the part where you put the same color icing on the back of your picture AND I didn't realize that the bottom would be the top...so you could see the lines some. :) Also, needed something in the background, but hey, my 4 yr old loved it, and since it was for her (and my aunt with a birthday shortly after) that was all that mattered. :) All BC icing.
