Mary_Baby_Shower_Cake.jpg
I ran out of time so I was not able to finish putting on borders etc... I also had a hard time with the cake shifting... I used a very creamy butter cream recipe. (I don't know what I was thinking) This cake was for my sister in-law's baby shower... theme was brown and lavender.

Retirement Cake For A Usn Senior Chief.
This was a retirement cake for a Senior Chief but I am also considering it to be my retirement cake. I had such a hard time with this cake!!!! It was a full sheet cake and I never thought it would be so hard to cover the cake in fondant....NEVER again. Anyways.... the anchor, "USN", and star are RKT and the chain is just fondant. I wish that I had more time to work on painting everything because I know I could have gotten it all darker. Also, i had planned on covering the RKT with chocolate before layering with fondant ...but once again ran out of time.

Spiderman
This is my first tiered cake that I made for a little boys birthday. My inspiration came from shelleylynn. The cake is all chocolate (I used the Darn Good Chocolate cake recipe along with the Chocolate Syrup Icing recipe...ummmy ummmmy : ) The cake is covered in MMF and the buildings are chocolate bars covered in MMF. Everything is edible except for the Spiderman candle on top. This is my fifth cake and I am still learning!

Flower Pot
This is my first sculpted cake and also the first time using gum paste. I made the gum paste and I think maybe I need to perfect the recipe. Many of my flowers did not dry completely. I am teaching myself how to make cakes and I learned a lot doing this one. I got a little frustrated with the flowers so I just ended up do my own thing...instead of trying to form them like what was in a book. I made this for my mother's birthday : )
