A simple sheet cake for a littl girls birthday. Tiara is gumpaste, as are the shoes, the purse is covered in fondant.
Individual ears of corn.... I mean cake. Each iced in yellow buttercream and covered with fondant kernals and husks. Airbrushed, hand-painted and dusted with color as necessary. Stacked on a platter and displayed as a centerpiece at a Corn Roast.....right up until dessert time!
This cake was done for the 2009 ICES Convention in St. Charles, IL. It was my contribution to a much larger display created by the Jackson Sugar Pipers Cake Club from Jackson, MI
6" WASC with Lemon Curd Filling 8" Dark Chocolate with Chocolate Ganache Filling 10" square Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese icing. Top two tiers iced in buttercream, the bottom iced in Cream Cheese Icing. Chocolate brown ribbon with buttercream dots. Fresh flowers on top.
If I had to guess, I'd say they are about a size 13! Both shoes cut out of a 9x13 cake and then slightly carved. One of the girls is turning 60 and the other loves peace signs. It was right after I took the pictures that I noticed the peace sign wasn't right, so I quickly fixed it but didn't have time for more pictures before it was picked up.
1/4 sheet cake, iced in buttercream with fondant accents
I entered this cake into the Michigan Sugar Art Showcase Competition on March 20-21, 2010. Entered into the Advanced Professional Division. Although I didn't win for this cake, I'm still pretty happy with it. All in all, it was a wonderful experience for me.
This Collection of Gift Bags was my last entry into the Michigan Sugar Art Showcase Competition on March 20-21, 2010. I fought with these things like there was no tomorrow, they were inches from the trash on numerous occasions. I was entered into the Advances Professional Division and they took 1st place in the Specialties Category. Again, a shock for me as I have never entered a competition before.
I entered this cake into the Michigan Sugar Art Showcase Competition March 20-21, 2010. Having never competited before I had no expectations of winning so I was SHOCKED when I won 1st Place in the Advanced Professional Division for tiered cakes, Best of Division, Decorator's Choice and Best of Show. It was an overwhelming weekend!
I think I've done all of Rio's birthday cakes, but this is the first one I've not designed. She drew a picture of what she wanted. 4", 6", 8" White Cake
For a little girl that is turning 10, likes green and is celebrating her birthday with a slumber party.
Started with a 9X13 and 1/2 ball pan and carved/shaped it from there. His hands are Rice Krispie Treats and the jacket is textured with a non-skid mat.
For a kitchen themed bridal shower with royal blue and pale yellow as the colors. Started out as a 10" square, strawberry/vanilla swirl cake with buttercream, covered in fondant. The toast is flattened Rice Krispie Treats. Thanks to the numerous "toaster-masters' that have come before me here on CC for the inspriation.

For our Grandson's 1st Birthday.
This is an 8" with a 5" on top. The shells are white chocolate, the crabs & lobsters are fondant as well as the life ring. The signs and fence and the anchor is gumpaste. The backgroud was airbrushed and then hand painted and overpiped in buttercream.
This is a centerpiece I did for a dessert buffet table. We did not cut into this cake as I will now donate it to the local National Guard Unit. For the candles I used 3 & 4" pans. Covered in fondant and the poinsettia is something I did at a cake club meeting a couple of years ago and never used. I filled in the back side of the poinsettia with bow loops. Thanks for looking, Lisa
This is just an 8" round Chocolate Cake covered in fondant. I lightly airbrushed the blue sky and a bit of green around the bottom. Painting is done with food color and EverClear. The little flowers are a 1st Impressions mold and the large daisy is a Patchwork Cutter.
This was for a very small wedding the day after Thanksgiving. The bride emailed me saying "this just isn't something I've been dreaming of since I was 12yrs old. Nothing fancy, maybe an octopus on top." She was, of course, joking. Really just trying to ruffle her Mom's feathers. I couldn't resist and gave her two options for the top of the cake. I still don't know which she used.
One would have thought I was running a sale on these this past summer. I think I did 4 pair of them! Pretty basic, each cut out of an 11X7" cake, covered in fondant and then detailed.
Just a simple 8" round with a few edible images and a giant cake ball hat!
10" square with ball pan on top. The cake was Strawberry/WASC swirl. Covered in fondant. The wheels to the carriage were made of gumpaste, all other accents were fondant or fondant with Tylose.
Made for a 40th birthday party with an 80's theme, this thing is was a beast! It's approx. 18" wide X 10" tall (including handle) and 8" deep, it weighed about 25 pounds. There were eight alternating layers of chocolate and white cake with Raspberry filling. Yumm!
Half sheet to match the plates & napkins being used for the Baby Shower.
