Happy Disco Birthday Jesse!
My friend found a cake like this (larger with three tiers) on Google images and asked me to make one for her dad's 60th bday. I image this is probably a ccer's cake so whoever made this design first THANKS A BUNCH because you saved me having to think up a design for this 80's themed birthday! Plus I got the opportunity to learn how to make a disco ball.

The Hangover 21St Birthday Cake
21st Birthday cake inspired by the movie - "The Hangover" (bachelor party in Las Vegas results in a lost nite of partying only for the guys to wake up in their hotel suite in the morning to find a tiger in the bathroom). I used Susie108's tiger cake (from the 2009 Animal Cake Contest) as my model and I thank her for the hints on making this - not quite her artistic ability and I wish I lived by her so I could attend one of her art classes! Second cake was made to meet the servings requirement. BIrthday boy seemed pleased with it! Oh and shot glass is real which I filled with an adult beverage after getting to the party venue.

Princess Storybook Birthday Cake
First Bday cake for young lady in San Diego CA. Carriage is styrofoam ball with gumpaste wheels (Wilton 2009 design). Star wand is F/GP mix covered with pink sugar. Story is icing sheet from story sent to me by the bday girl's mother. Gold page edges were done with brushed on dry Super Gold luster dust (tried painting them first and figured out quickly that dry dusting worked better). Used two separate 9 X 13 rectangular pans for the book.

Purple Wedding Cake With White Anemones
Cake for my nephew's wedding - I made the gumpaste flowers (transported them to Phoenix from CA for the wedding )and put on the cake baked and frosted by a local baker. The bride selected this from a Elise Strauss cake photo she saw in a magazine. Purple flowers around the base are real.
