"in Your Dreams!"

My husband has been wanting a motorcycle for a while now, but his family has basically threatened his life if he were to get one. :) I made this for Father's Day for him. He should get a good chuckle. First time using fondant and an edible image.

80Th Birthday Cake

My MIL asked for a cake for her friend's 80th birthday. She told me what he looked like and that he had a chiwawa and asked that the cake be rectangle. I was able to get a picture of him and his dog to copy. I also tried a new kind of scroll work and I like how it turned out. This was my first time trying to make the flesh color and the poor man looks like he's got a sunburn. oops!

Course 2 Final Cake

I really did not enjoy using color flow and my birdhouse and birds didn't turn out well. But overall I'm happy with how my cake turned out. I think learning how to do basketweave made it all worthwhile. :)

Last Cake For Course 1

Here is my final cake for Wilton Course 1. I really enjoyed the class and learned so much! My icing got a little stiff, so my writing isn't that great - the icing kept breaking off instead of coming out in one stream. I really need to work on my roses, but overall, I'm pretty happy with the cake.

Relay For Life

My MIL asked me to do this cake for a Relay For Life dinner she was organizing. It was my first "paid" order and she was really happy with it!

Last Minute Birthday Cake

A short time before going to a party, the hostess asked me to make a birthday cake for a friend who would be there. I did this in just a short time, but got to practice some flowers.

Class Cake #3 - Clowns

Wilton Course 1 Rainbow Cake

I'm really happy with this cake! I need to work on my writing (I think my letters got taller towards the end) but other than that I think it turned out nice.

Lemon Cake

I had my first cake decorating class and I brought home a white cake. My daughter requested that I decorate it with lemons. Not sure why, but this is what I came up with.

Snowman

I only used half the batter for this cake, so that's why it's not taller than 1 layer. I planned to use the other half of the batter for a Christmas tree cake but it didn't turn out. My girls really liked the idea of the Snowman and were fighting over who would get to eat his nose. :) I'll probably make another one since it was super easy, but this time use all the batter and make it a two-layer cake.

Strawberry Shortcake

This is the faniciest cake I've ever attempted! My girls loved it!
