Olympics Birthday
White chocolate sour cream cake w/SugarShack's buttercream. Client is placing figurines on top upon delivery. All accents are fondant or 50/50 fondant & gumpaste, except for the flag toothpicks & Wilton columns. Inspiration for a few of the elements (torches & gold medal) come from sandrascakes' Mario & Sonic Olympics cake on Flickr. Thanks for looking!

Ballerina Birthday
My take on CakeBaker's perfect design - what an inspiration! A million thanks for the slipper template; could never have pulled this off without it! I'm really disappointed in the rush job I did on the buttercream. I think it really detracts from the big picture. Lesson learned; back to basics!

Spiderman Princess Cake
My goddaughter is having a Spiderman Princess Birthday party (she's a 3 year old tomboy; too cute!) and this is the cake I made for her. Thanks to teesue and merissa for the inspiration. One layer White Chocolate Sour Cream and one layer Chocolate Sour Cream with cheesecake filling. Spidey's head is the large egg pan, covered in fondant.

Flower Basket Birthday Cake
White Chocolate Sour Cream cake with cheesecake filling & Sugarshack's buttercream for my grandma's birthday. Royal icing roses, gumpaste plaque and plunger daisies, all else is buttercream. The darker roses are actually royal purple, but I couldn't get the color to photograph. The plaque was improvisation, as I ran out of flowers! She loved it!

Easter Lamb Cake
My main inspiration came from Kitagrl's awesome Lamb Cake. I opted to use buttercream for the fleece, as my family prefers it to fondant. Used a vintage Wilton Adorable Lamb Cake mold, so no carving was necessary - whew! I thought she turned out cute. She was a big hit at Easter dinner!

Spider Cupcakes
More cupcakes for my son's preschool Halloween party. I can't recall where I saw this idea - I believe somewhere on the Internet. I used Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge frosting for the spiders and tried to make them somewhat cute so that the kids won't be freaked out by them. We'll see... (o:
