My Uncle got married this past summer and for the groom's cake I made him a coo coo clock that was an (as exact as I could get) replica of my grandmother's (his mom's) clock. He LOVED it. Unfortunately I have to get copies of the professional photos and then re-upload. I didn't add the pendulum until we arrived there and I took this at home with my phone.
Very romantic wedding for a firefighter and his bride. They wanted a toy firetruck on top (their choice) as the only accessory to the cake (no flowers). 12", 10", 8" & 6" cakes.
I modeled the design on the cake after the bride's dress. 14", 10" & 6" with real flowers.
Made this for my cousin who loves rhinos:) The rhino cake was red velvet so when we cut into it... well you get the idea :D
Thanks to everyone that helped get me through this Snoopy cake! I wasn't happy with his face the first time around but after a few tips and some adjustments he came out ok. I still wish I would've had time to change his body to be more rounded. The couple I made this cake for were married on a golf course and the groom looooooooves Snoopy!
My 10 year reunion was last weekend. In all my excitement, I set up the cake, sent this picture with my phone to my DH and then never went back for more pictures with my camera :( Edible images of all our senior pictures and gumpaste 98 topper. Everyone wanted to eat their face :)
My cousin had a rubber ducky theme for her baby shower but I didn't want to do the standard rubber duck cake so I made the bath tub instead.
I finally made some flips for my best friend's birthday. She loooooves the beach and really appreciated these. Didn't have time to dry the straps though :( Sand castle is also left over cake and the sand is crushed cherrios
Last minute baby shower cake for a friend's cousin. I've always wanted to make one of these and it turned out pretty good for a last minute cake. TFL
This cake was orange flavored with orange cream filling and the chocolate icing really made a wonderful combination. I combined a few ideas seen her on CC and it was a BIG hit! Thanks for the inspiration!
I've seen a couple different cakes on this site with the tapered shades and luckily I had a bride who was really into the idea finally. This cake was all sorts of different flavors and I made the sugar flowers as a gift to them. It was a big hit and thanks to CC for the inspired ideas. I'm sorry I can't remember names at this point. I always forget but I'm sure it'll come back to me and I'll post their names. TFL
14", 12", 10", 8" and 6" alternating with chocolate cake and raspberry filling and vanilla butter cake and strawberry filling. Every other tier is covered in the alternating pearl design and the opposite 2 tiers have a heart stencil design (kinda hard to see in the pic). My biggest cake yet! :)
I believe the person that I can give credit to is cakesunlimited but I'm sure there are SO many other CCer's that contributed to the design. Pillars are standard wilton pillars covered in fondant and the fairies are gumpaste (used face mold). Cakes are all iced in BC and the plate is covered in 1/2 melted mini marshmallows.
One tier for every year. I was able to use my airbrush a little on the bottom tier for this cake. All buttercream with fondant accents. The lids are styrofoam covered in gumpaste and fondant for the "tissue paper." I am sooo sorry I forgot the name of the person I got the tiara idea from. Her pattern is on here. I didn't use it but it was her instructions I followed to make it out of RI.
A one-year-old's first birthday with a Sesame Street Disco theme. Turned out very cute with Big Bird on the cupcake just for the birthday boy. All 1/2 fondant/ 1/2 gumpaste figures. The disco ball is a foam ball covered in fondant. The cake was iced in BC and then covered in fondant strips/ squares to show disco colors. TFL
My first attempt with this type of cake. I used Rice Crispies for the head and neck and the rest is cake. All covered in BC with fondant accents. The burger buns are cake covered in fondant and then fondant for the lettuce, tomatoe and cheese. Used BC for the burger too. Sugar ATTACK burger!!!
I've gotten huge inspiration from many people on this site and I just want to say thank you to all you collectively. This site is amazing! It was a Christmas wedding so stacked packages was the cake theme and their colors were red, white, black and silver. All iced in BC with fondant accents. The bow on top was gumpaste as were the ornaments placed on the bottom level. I actually covered foam balls to make the ornament accents.
A friend's babyshower cake. The cradle "canopy" and baby are gumpaste as well as the tissue paper for the packages. Top cradle cake was coverd in Satin Ice and the others in BC. The lids are fakes covered in fondant as well. Sorry my picture is so crooked on top of the cake being topsy turvey. I dont know what was wrong with me when I took this picture and I never went back to the table to take more angles until it was time to cut... :)Even the babies feet had toes! TFL
A blackbelt celebration cake. Pasted a few pictures together so that you could get a better feel for the dragon. Fondant dragon was wrapped around the bottom cake. Iced in BC and used fondant for the blackbelt too. TFL
Once every blue moon I make a cake just for me. I've been wanting to make a dragon ever since I saw mamacc's beautiful dragon. Thanks for the inspiration!
My best friend's wedding. She wanted something simple and elegant. Only 3 tiers and nothing but ribbon and a few flowers. At the last minute I convinced her that the stencil design would make it really stand out to other cakes. She was absolutely pleased! Stenciled with pearl dust on Satin Ice fondant.
My brother's groom's cake. I used a mock Behr paint logo with my brother's name. The cake is chocolate and covered in milk chocolate buttercream. I thought it looked a mess and shouldn't have tried to fit it in with the wedding cakes I had to do but my family insisted we put it out still. Used an old ladder as the stand if you look in my pictures you can see the final setup with the paintcan in the background. My brother belongs to the painter's Union and all the painters loved it so I guess it was ok. :)
My brother's wedding cake. Strawberry Cake with White Chocolate Ganache filling and covered in Almond BC and Satin Ice fondant. The hydrangeas are all gumpaste (as are the leaves) and I used the Scott Clark Woolley hydrangea set. Glad this one is over but happy with the end result.
Lilies, roses, hydrangea. Made them myself out of gumpaste.
Wedding shower, cake is Cherry Chip with mixed berry filling and chocolate icing. Balls around the center are tootsie rolls not malt balls (which is what I shoulda used). First large gum paste bouqet on top. Her colors were pink and chocolate. All the pink decorations are gum paste.
