Basketball Cake
This is a cake I made for a friend at work. Orginally she has asked for for a basketball themed cupcake cake. The day before she asked if I would be able to do something more 3D. This was the best I could do on short notice and her son who is adorable was happy with it and that's all that matters.

Fixed Cake
So the orginal cake turned out to slide a bit more than I could reasonably ignore. So in the middle of the night I took the flowers out cut the fondant down the sides, scraped of the top of the cake, re-smoothed the buttercream, flipped the cake over, and pieced it back together. It looks more like an upside down flower pot now, but considering it all but crumbled in the middle of the night and I did what I could to save it. I love the way it turned out.

My First Gumpaste Flower!
My very first ever attempt at Gumpaste flowers. Not the first I'm willing to show but my very first!! I'm excited about learning more about working with gumpaste. I know I need to get some tools like a ball tool and foam board, but until then I'm happy with the way these are turning out. Maybe I will sign up for a class this summer.

Toy Story
A cake for my niece, I am still pretty new to covering cakes in fondant and had quite a bit of trouble with this one, but in the end I think I covered the mistakes well for instance the fence on the bottom layer wasnt in the orginal plan it was added afterwards to hide some tearing at the bottom. I was inspired by many photos online I took ideas from a lot of photos and added them to what I already had in mind.

Cellenas Cake
This is a cake I did for my sons teachers grandaughter. It was the first time I made a fondant bow and the first time I used crusting BC I learned a lot that I can apply next time. it is chocolate cake with chocolate filling and vanialla bc. if I could only get the horrifing image of the women cramping it into her car and the cake cracking all over I might be happy with the way it turned out. thanks for looking.
