3Rd Wedding Cake

Chocolate, White & Marble cake with Baker's BC icing. I love this icing, but it doesn't crust which can be difficult. I did this cake and delivered it in a Minnesota blizzard 80 miles from my home to a casino, then got stranded there with my husband for the night. AAhhhhh!! It was horrifying. But I thought the cake turned out fine. Satin ribbon & silk flowers used.

Dress-Up Girly Cake

This is marble cake with BC. I made this cake for someone through work and she was bringing her daughter to Libby Lu's at the Mall of American and wanted a dress-up theme. My husband came up with the idea of windows all around the cake representing different stores. We incorporated the birthday girl's name in the store names above the windows. I used a princess tiera cookie cutter for the iced cookies. The girls LOVED this cake and it was a huge hit.

Purple Rose Wedding Cake

Katelyn's 1St Birthday

Bottom white cake, top marble cake, iced in BC with fondant roses. Last minute cake for friend

'06 Grad Cake

This is a full sheet cake. 1/2 chocolate, 1/2 white and the 6" on top is marble. The whole cake is BC icing and the school logo and "Class of 2006" are royal icing. This was a fun cake to make, thanks to the help of my husband finding the right press board to put it on and a box to deliver it in. And also thanks to all my pals at CakeCentral who answered all of my questions about coloring red, royal icing letters, etc.

Blue Doll Cake

This was for my other niece's 3rd birthday. It's not very detailed, but I did it in a hurry. It's dark chocolate cake and BC icing.

Pink Doll Cake

This was for my niece's 6th birthday. It's chocolate with BC icing. The drop flowers are royal icing.

50's Theme Cake

This was the 2nd cake for my mom's 50th surprise party (50's theme). It is chocolate cake with BC icing. The car is color flow royal icing.

50's Record Cake

This was for my mom's 50th surprise birthday party. It was a 50's theme party. The cake was white cake with BC icing.

August Birthday Cake

This was a cake I did for my husband's monthly birthday cakes at work. The colors were not as dark in person. This was one of my least favorite cakes I've done. My writing was horrible and I did not like my flower vines.

Rose Bud Cake

Made this cake for my husband's monthly birthday cake at work. Chocolate cake with BC icing.

Princess Tiera Birthday Cake

I got this idea from a photo in the gallery. I made it for my daughter's 2nd birthday and she loved it! The bottom layer is chocolate and the top layer is white cake all with BC icing. I had a lot of fun decorating this. I love to use the cornelli lace technique.

Football Cake

I made this cake for my son's 10th birthday. He was in his first year of football at the time. It didn't turn out as well as I would have liked. It's white cake with BC icing.

Baby Boy Shower Cake

I got this idea from the website and changed it a bit. The cake is marble with BC icing and the starts & moon are fondant.

Girl Baby Shower Cake

This is marble cake with BC icing. The moon and stars are fondant. I got this idea from this website and changed it a bit. This is the first time I used fondant outside of the Wilton classes I took. I've always be intimitated by fondant, but found it was pretty easy to work with. Although, the shapes were very easy to do (not a lot of manipulation).

1St Wedding Cake

I've been doing cake decorating casually for about a year and finally got to do a real wedding cake. This was for my mom's wedding reception. The bottom and top tiers are chocolate and the middle tier is white cake. Nothing too fancy, and it's kind of simple, but I had a lot of fun with it. No disasters.

Baby Girl Shower

White cake with oreo filling and BC icing.

Umbrella Bridal Cake

This is white cake, raspberry filling and iced in BC. The writing is horrible, but otherwise it turned out okay (I think). Normally, this cake has a decorated handle made from PC pipe and bow at the top. This picture was taken before the handle and bow were attached.

Wilton Course Iii

This was my final cake for the Wilton Course III. It is white cake, BC frosting, roses and sweet peas. It's pretty basic and nothing fancy, but I wanted to tier a cake for the first time and not take too many risks.

3-Tiered Mini Wedding Cakes

26 3-tired mini wedding cakes w/BC icing. The drop flowers are royal. This was my first attempt at anything and I was still in Wilton Course 1. They turned out okay, but it was a lot of work and time (9 1/2 hours) and I had no idea what I was doing. I found these Wilton pans online and I had to use them for my cousin's bridal shower. I won't do this many again unless their is some $$$ involved. LOL

Birthday Cake

This was my first cake I made for someone (3rd cake ever since taking Wilton classes). I ran into a lot of trouble with the baking. My 20-month old daughter ate part of the first cake I made. Then the 2nd cake I made came out too thin since I only used 2 cake mixes (long story). Finally I got it right. I used some of the flowers that I learned in Course 2. The primroses are made from Royal and the rest of the cake is BC. I also used this cake as my Course 2 final.

Wilton Course I

I've been into cake decorating for about 2 months now and so far I love it. This was my Course 1 final cake. It's butter white cake with BC icing. The roses have been very difficult for me to learn--I'm just not getting it! But the day I made this cake, was the best they've turned out for me. I haven't been able to make a rose since. If I finally get my icing stiff enough, it's hard to squeeze from the bag. I have warm hands, so then it gets to thin.
