"backwards Birthday" Cake
Made for my friend who was having a "backwards birthday" party. All gifts given were donated to a charity, the kids all wore their clothes backwards and all kinds of backwards stuff! My husband made the stand the cake is sitting on. I wanted the center post to blend in with the candles, so we made it from a dowl the same diameter. Was VERY unstable, even though only the middle 10" layer is cake (others are dummies). Barely made it to the party, but the kids LOVED it.

Radio
One of the guys in the radio shop where my husband works took a position in another part of the plant, so he asked me to make him a cake in the shape of the radios they work on. He brought me a photo and I made the cake out of 2 8" square cakes (cut one in half to make the handheld radios). Chocolate cake with DH icing (hubby's favorite)

Fireman Helmet
When I call my husand at work and ask how his day is going, he almost always tells me he's busy "putting out fires." I jokingly told him I was going to get him a fireman's helmet. He told me he'd always wanted one, so I made him a cake! Made using both pans in the BC Bake n Fill pan set. Had about 2c. batter left over so put that in the 16x12 oval pan for the hat base. Iced using DH icing (hubby's favorite but what a pain to decorate with!)

School Bus
Made this for a youth group's monthly birthday celebration. Thought since they were headed back to school this month a bus would be nice. Chocolate cake with rolled buttercream fondant. Only my second fondant cake. PS - gotta love my mess in the background!! Not the neatest decorator! (just ask my husband!)
