Second try at the design I liked so much from another CC member. It's been about a year, so I figured I should try it again! Fondant daisies and leaves, the rest is buttercream. Inside is Yellow Cake with Chocolate Chip Buttercream.
This is a very close copy of a photo found on Flickr, which was taken by someone at a wedding, who credits Robin from Gateaux Inc. as the baker. I was asked to re-created it on a smaller scale. 10 hours later, here it is! I'm pretty pleased with it! All fondant except the blue buttercream on the bottom tier. Plastic Princess and Mario figurines. Fondant and Royal Piranha Plants and turtle shells will be added on-site when it's delivered.
Fondant baby peas on cupcakes.
Tried it again so soon! Had to use up left over icing and cake, so here's a mini version!
Did this with a friend and I love how it came out. I don't have a cutter for cherry blossoms, so the daisy cutters filled in! All buttercream except the flowers and dragees.
All buttercream except the fish, which were cut out to match a graphic used on the invitations.
This is actually the back of my waterfall cake, but I would like to do one like this all the way around sometime, I liked how it came out. Buttercream icing, Royal icing flowers.
Airbrushed fondant for the first time as the primary color. Sooo much easier than kneading in color! All fondant with buttercream borders and writing.
All buttercream except the fondant around the baseball. This one was fun!
Begonia's come in green, don't they? I don't even know! Just using up left over icing (finally reached the end of it!)
Trying a different kind of fondant swag. This is a side cake to match the stacked daisy cake, for a special birthday. Buttercream with fondant accents
I wanted to try fondant swags outside of a class for once. Buttercream with fondant accents.
First attempt at the rose cupcakes for cupcake boquets. Swiss meringue buttercream with strawberry preserves mixed in.
Just playing with some new toys on left-over cake. The bow and belt don't have much to do with each other, or the flowers, but I was just trying things I've never done before. Had a lot of fun anyway!
Turns out I liked the topper. Here's the whole thing assembled. Now I wish I had been able to get a nice picture of it all together.
There are chocolate fondant curly-q's and a topper that will be added later but I wanted to get the cake before I added them because I'm not sure I'll like the topper! Buttercream with chocolate fondant accents. I've been excited to try one of these circle cakes for a while and finally got the chance.
This is my attempt at a fabulous cake posted by CC member dailey. All buttercream except the zebra stripes and flowers on top.
Number 3 of the "Quick Flower Cakes" mess today! I made that daisy so much better in class! Gumpaste daisy and leaves, rest is buttercream.
What's that saying two steps forward, one step back? That's how I felt today doing these three Mother's Day cakes, and were ordered by a friend. YIKES. Nothing worked out for me today :( Better luck next time!
The couple is getting married at Castle Farms in Michigan so the shower cake matches it! All buttercream except the roofs which are fondant/gumpaste mix and rolled buttercream door and windows. Would have added the window pane lines if my hands would have quit shaking! I was so nervous with this one!
Lots of firsts in one cake AGAIN! First chocolate buttercream cake, first character cake, first time making a cake for someone else who requested a specific theme or design! I'm still a little bit shaky! :) First FBCT, probably the last. Did a dozen of the turtle heads because they kept breaking!
Yup, it's that one design from Whimsical Bakehouse. Chocolate cake with mint filling. Royal flowers and shimmer dust on top. Looked kind of cool sliced with all those colors. Now if I could just get rid of those bubbles in this icing, I'd be happy!
For a friend's son's 2nd Birthday - She drew out the design, baked the bottom tier and then we assembled and decorated together. Bottom is fondant, top is rolled buttercream Mickeys on buttercream. Hat topper is an ice cream cone with fondant decorations. I would have liked a simple border on the top tier but we ran out of time and she wanted to keep it simple anyway. Had fun doing this, umm... the morning of the party that's the good part about doing this for fun with the friend that it's for! ;)
More firsts for me again! Bottom is chocolate-covered coffee bean cake with almond-cinnamon SMBC, covered with chocolate Bettercream and chocolate stripes, drips and drizzle. Top is chai cake with the same almond-cinnamon SMBC, covered with fondant and chocolate Bettercream for the coffee. Spoon is fondant with luster dust. I took some inspiration on the mug cake from a few posted here at CC.
6", one layer, torted and filled with my favorite Vanilla Chocolate Cherry Buttercream. Just using up left-over cake and fillings for fun!
