Diamond Anniversary
Threw this cake together in a day with my sister's help. Was very impressed that we managed it. Found out that the plans for my grandparents' 60th wedding anniversary fell through and felt just terrible, so we put this together for them and had a big dinner celebration with them the next day.

Bride Vs. Predator
Groom, who is my new brother-in-law, plays hockey on a team named The Predators. Sister snuck his hockey chess set to me and I used gum paste to model dresses, hair, coat tails, pants, etc coming out from underneath the "shirts" to look like the bride and bridesmaids playing against the groom and groomsmen. Cake unfortunately had some issues in transport, so sides look a little off. Sprinkled cake with edible sparkles to look like ice. Goals were floral wire and netting.

Colorful Cake
Made this for the best friend of my youngest sister for her wedding. We affectionately call it the Malibu Barbie cake. Color choices were a bit odd, but it turned out decent in the end. Made a simple stencil for the "waves", bought spray color, and used design roller to give colored edges some definition. My 2nd wedding cake.

Gibson Explorer
Guitar cake my best friend and I made for her son's 16th birthday party. Covering is crushed Oreos. Neck had Ghirardelli chocolate squares on top for fret board with dragees where the dots are. Tuners were mini Reeses PB cups. And some white candy melts for strings, pickups, pegs, etc.

Smoking Cauldron
I wanted to do a cauldron cake for a work party where there was "smoke" coming out of the cake. Used some bundt pans, a thin vase in the middle, gum paste spiders, rat tails, bat wing, and eye balls, and threw in a bit of dry ice. ;) (cauldron "covering" was crushed Oreos sans filling)

My First Wedding Cake
A friend of mine was on a tight budget and asked me to do her wedding cake. I had taken the 1st two Wilton courses and had tinkered with other cakes a bit, so I told her if she was willing to be my first guinea pig I would charge her for the ingredients and the cake itself would be my wedding present. (she's just a real cutie) So, I found some snowflake cookie cutters, browsed the web for brilliant tips and info, and took to making it. Anywho, this is it. My very first wedding cake. :)
