buttercream and vanilla cake with a rice krispy head of shark covered in mm fondant then airbrushed and hand painted
Marshmellow fondant with wilton chocolate melts used for the stars. The pinup girl was a tattoo I found online and I painted it on a round piece of fondant. Sparklers on top instead of candles set this cake off for two sailors in there 20's
I got my idea done but was not too happy about the presentation. I used the small wilton barbie pan to make the inside and wrapped them with mm fondant. Using the largest flower cookie cutter I had added flowers to the top of each one then painted detail on each. The tinkerbell toy is sitting on a wave of hard candied sugar made in advance.
Dinosaur exiting from side of cake. Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and covered in chocolate, marshmellow fondant. The dino is made from marshmellow fondant with gum tex added to make it harden. It took five days to make the dino since it needed to harden for each part. The only part that was not edible were the dino skeleton heads which were bought from the toy store.
Cupcakes with Tinker bell set bought from Target for $10. The flowers were made of sugar paste and hand painted. Each cupcake had a fairy and a few flowers.
Marshmellow fondant over buttercream. Black was poured cookie icing which hardened nicely to create a shiny glaze.
Digger on top of pull apart cupcakes. The digger was made out of cake on top of a 1/2 inch piece if wood which the arm was attached to with two screws. The cake sits on a platform covered in frosting and the tires sit on that bottom platform.
This cake was covered in buttercream. The strips are marshmellow fondant and chocolate mixed together. The hand was a mold of my own hand which I poured white chocolate into to make the positive image. The hat was attached with a wooden base from the bottom of the cake and cardboard top all covered in marshmellow fondant. The tassle is a fiberoptic centerpiece that is powered by a battery attached at the base of cake. Found it in the floral section of a craft store.
I was trying to learn how to make a hibiscus flower out of marshmellow fondant so I put the ones I made on top of some mini cakes and gave them away for Mother's day.
These was my own wedding. Yes I was one of those that refused to buy a wedding cake and made them myself. Fresh flowers went of each one. The stand was rented. Yellow and choc cakes with buttercream icing went on all of them. I decorated each one and then froze them as I got done. I made a total of 60 cakes.
The Tinker bell top is a candle I found at the party store. She is sitting on a ball of rice cereal treats covered in marshmellow fondant. A steal rod from Home Depot runs through each wooden platform and then was covered with brown royal icing to look like a tree trunk. Each cupcake has a handmade flower, made of marshmellow fondant, on it with butterflies and ladybugs. This five year old girl loves strawberry cake and icing so this was made with fresh strawberries pureed and added to the buttercream frosting and yellow cake batter.
This was my first wedding cake I've ever made. It did not make it to the reception without falling over. I had to completely redo it when I got there. I didn't have enough support to hold the weight of such a large cake. I was a chocolate mocha cake filling over chocolate cake but with buttercream icing to cover it. The M was made with a piece of pure white fondant and buttercream decorating it. This is the natural color of my frosting since I use such a dark vanilla from the Dominican Rep. The design was given to me by the bride out of a bridal mag.
Got the fairies from Target and stuck there bodies in cake formed by a cake mold. Each fairy was decorated with strawberry flavored marshmellow fondant and royal icing. Of course the little girls got to keep the fairies. The cake was made using a yellow cake recipe with fresh strawberries added. Covered in marshmellow fondant. The cake is a wilton creation from one of their books.
Yellow and Choc cake covered in marshmellow fondant. Bear is made of rice krispy treats and covered in marshmellow fondant. Handed painted details.
