My customer's wife is celebrating the big 21. The Cognac bottle is pulled sugar with an edible image. The Martini glasses are real and hand lettered with BC. The cake is a white cake with BC and edible images as well. Thanks for looking and enjoy!
This cake was done for a boy who loved military and camo scenes. The banner is fondant
This was a Frozen Buttercream transfer and accented with a modeling chocolate pony.
This is a "G" rated version of the same cake. She is yellow cake with RBC. The bikini was also fashioned from RBC. She was ordered for the 15yo son of one of my customers.
This was done for a customer with a groundhog day birthday. He is yellow cake with whipped chocolate icing. The additional coloring was airbrushed to make it more life like.I also used a comb to make "hair" lines. The apple is fondant and held in place with a skewer. Thanks for looking
This is the cake I made when a soldier IN Iraq called and wanted to give his DW a birthday surprise form over there!. It's a simple yellow cake with chocolate decorator icing ( recipe from CC, thanks ). The decos were piped with the same icing, it's a little too limp to stand up but that's the icing they wanted because it is her fav.
I made this cake for practice with RBC. It's a two layer chocolate with RBC. I used the pearl technique I learned here on CC. The two red hearts were made from left over fondant and cut with a Wilton cookie cutter. Let me know how my first RBC job looks!!! I may never use fondant again
The brides friend found out the day before the wedding that there was no cake. He contacted me on Sat at about 9:00PM and asked me to do a quick cake by Sun at 4:pm. He was unsure of what they wanted but they wanted a peach color. This is what I did for $96.00 and it was done 1 hr early!. The cake was chocolate with BC icing and decos. It's a 6' 8' 10 tiered. Not my best but pretty good for the amount of time I had.
My grandson's teacher gave me 12 hrs notice to do a "girlie" cake for her 28yo daughter. She wanted everything pink. I started with a strawberry cake and worked up from there. The tiara and bows were done in pink RI the rosebuds were BC. It's a little hard to see but I also put pansies on top of the bottom layer. She didn't want it too tall so I just used dowels and plates without columns. Enjoy, they did.
This is an alternate view of my bible cake. This, again, was carved and not done with a book pan. All of my cakes now are done free hand.
This was my first free form 3D cake. I based it on the cake shown and used in "The Sound of Music" Nueschwanstein Castle. It is 6 9x13 sheets stacked and carved. then covered in fondant. If you look closely I got a brick pattern from the Hobby Lobby and pressed it into the fondant before I covered the walls. The rest is a combo of RI and BC. i also used the Romantic Castle kit from Wilton.
I did this for my grandson about 2005. Since then I started getting requests for more cakes. Scoobie is chocolate with BC
Did this for a friend. I don't like covering my cakes with a thousand little stars so I used fondant and BC over a strawberry cake.
This was my first 3D cake. I used the Wilton stand up Teddy bear pan and their tip 233 for the fur. I had so much fun with this that I started carving my own from then on. The fur is chocolate BC
I did this for a friend's son's 8th birthday. I was carved and covered with BC,some fondant, and a little airbrushing.
My 7 yo grandson loves to watch, and even help, me decorate cakes. So this time I actually let him do some of the piping. I also took some of his Christmas drawings, scanned them, and put them on edible icing sheet. He was so excited when he saw the finished product.
I did this cake for our local Fire Station for appreciation of their service. I delivered it on thanksgiving 2007. The lights on the truck actually work and flash, hence the wires under the cake.
This is a tree I carved for a Christmas party. I wanted to hide the lights inside but I ran out of time. It still got the comments I was looking for. Enjoy The angel on top was a mini wonder mold and doll pick. Her wings are hand made RI.
This is my Halloween cake. Chocolate with a combo of BC, fondat, and chocolate easy melts. Hope you like it
I got the idea for this from CC. I don't remember the name, but my customer loved the design. The cake is Tres Leches, or three milk, covered and trimmed with stabilized whipped cream icing. The holly leaves, berries and poinsettias were fondant.
These cakes were done for my wife's church dinner. They are devil's food :) with buttercream icing. For the bible I scanned two pages and printed them on edible icing then hand carved a 12x15 sheet cake. For the nativity I downloaded a pic of the nativity from the internet. The edges of the pages were scored and painted with thinned gold shimmer dust. The ribbon is red buttercream.
I made this cake for a recital at my grandson's school. By request it was a standard white cake w/ buttercream. All black pieces were fondant except the tuning pegs, which were modeling chocolate. The book is also white cake with buttercream and 2 edible images scanned from the violin practice book. the book and violin were hand carved, I don't like to use pre-shaped pans unless requested.
