Butterfly Birthday Cake

This cake is based on one by Deisel, although I think her's came out much nicer! I couldn't find a butterfly cutter so freehanded them, and then they ended up being a lot bigger than I really wanted. Oh well, the little girl was very happy.

3-D Mini Dreidel Cake

I really wanted to make a 3d dreidel cake, so when my large one fell apart I opted for a smaller version. I think it came out really cute.

Broken Window Cookie

This is a cookie I designed for a boy's Bar Mitzvah favor. He has a reputation in the community for breaking windows when he plays baseball. The mother loved the cookie, but has decided not to buy these due to budget restraints. This sample was done using some ready made royal so I could show her the idea. I plan to make one with some Homemade royal so I can post it on my site as a sample of my design ability.

Carrot Sheet Cake

This is a carrot cake (I know that's a big surprise!). I wanted a decoration, but nothing to much since it was being cut up for a group and wasn't for a celebration of any kind. The design is based on delightfulsweetbea's cake, only I used icing instead of candy.

Chanukah Card Cookie

This is a prototype cookie. I really like how most of it came out, but I need to do a different menorah style, this one was too hard to get even on both sides. But I still like the general idea.

Raspberry Truffle Torte

This is a chocolate cake brushed with raspberry jam, filled with raspberry ganache, and covered in regular ganache. This was the first time I have covered an entire cake in ganache and did not realize at the time their where some special tricks to doing this. My sides ended up very clumpy, but thanks to my CC friends and learned I could use a hair dryer to melt and smooth the sides. It made a huge improvement!

Simchas Torah Sheet Cake

This was a cake for our Shul/Temple Simchas Torah party. During this holiday we celebrate that we have finished another cycle through the Torah readings and have the opportunity to start again. This is why I chose to put little Torahs on each section. This was vanilla cake w/vanilla icing. (Sorry the photo is a little blurry)

Sukkot Lulav Cake

This is a seven layer cake (dobosh torte). I was really bored of bread baking and even though it is generally plain on top I decided to embellish this one. It was for a friend who had company coming in for Sukkot, so I used a little fondant and made a lulav and etrog (the symbols of the holiday).

Monkey Birthday Cake

This cake was made for a four year old's Monkey themed birthday party. The cake was vanilla with a banana flavored parve "buttercream" icing. I used a cake design that was posted on "Easy Cake Decorating", and it was fairly easy. I did adapt it some, and although you can't really see it in the photo the design went down onto all the sides.

First Cupcake Bouquet

This is my first cupcake bouquet. I wanted to see how easy these might be for a buffet I am planning. It went surprisingly well for the first time. I need too much practice on these flowers so I will probably do something easier on the real ones.

Yeshiva Boker's Hat And Talmud Volume

This was a going away cake(s) for my son who is leaving for Yeshiva (Jewish high school). The Talmud volume is chocolate cake w/mocha buttercreme, and my daughter Chani tediously made each letter out of fondant. The hat is a replica of my son's hat, complete with the brim turned down (to look cool). It was Chai cake with cinnamon buttercreme. These were my first attempts at a hat cake and a book cake.
