Bratz

Bratz dolls have such big heads I don't think I could make one to sit, never mind stand so I have made this in bas relief ready to lie on top of a cake. It is made out of sugar paste and painted with luter dusts and edible glitter.

Birthday Cupcakes

Vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream and fondant flowers, happy birthday was written using the wilton letter press pushed into little fondant squares.

Lego Indiana Jones

My son fell in love with the Indiana Jones Lego cake that angel941985 made and Angie was kind enough to send me instuctions so here is my version. I made it for my son's best friend who was 6 today. The arms are rice crispies and the rest is cake, I'd never used rice crispies before but they worked really well. It is all covered in fondant.

Thank You Teacher

For my son's school staff room. Buttercream covered cupcakes with a fondant topper. Letters are the FMM Funky tappits.

Happy Birthday Cupcakes

I wish I'd had more time to take a better picture but these are cupcakes for my gran's birthday. They are inspired by the amazing cupcake ladies on Flickr - if you get a chance you should check them out. Zalita is my favourite , her teapot is a million times better than mine.

The Daisy One I Do

My husband phoned me and to ask if I would make a cake for a friend's aunt I had agreed to do it before he mentioned that it was for the next day! Then he asked if I could make the "daisy one that you do" - honestly I have never made ac cake with daisies on it before. Anyway here is the no notice daisy cake that I do!

Blue Bears

I got the idea of these bears from an amazing topper made by Rouv so a big thank you to her for sharing her work!

25Th Anniversary

My husband works for the Scottish Society for Autism and today they celebrated 25 years of helping adults with autism in Central Scotland so I made them a cake. The jigsaw pieces make up their logo. I made the stars from gumpaste and threaded them on 24 guage silver wire.

Winnie The Pooh

Six layers of cake, carved and then covered in fondant. I made this at a class this afternoon, It was nice to spend the day with five other girls who enjoy my hobby and then head home to my 2 little boys with Winnie the Pooh.

Mini Winnie

My elder son can't eat dairy so couldn't eat any of the large Winnie the Phoo cake I made this afternoon, this is his own little all fondant version. It is just 2 inches tall, even then it still a lot of sugar for a 5 year old to eat in one go so he has to be rationed. The hard part is deciding what to eat first!

The Tardis

Airbrushed fondant.

Soccer Ball

This was my first try with the Wilton ball pan. I elevated the cake to cover it in fondant which I would never do normally and the weight of the fondant caused it to tear near the bottom so I added a scarf to hide the tear. Next time I think I will try and cover it with the cake on the work surface but it will be pretty tight round the bottom. Any tips on how to do this would be appreciated.

Ben & Georgia

I got to practice some of the skills I learn on the Aine 2 workship I went to in February. Everything is made from modelling paste, it was a fun cake to make but it took a long time!

Bugs Bunny

This topper is from a Debbie Brown book, I wish I had made his teeth longer, I think I might try him again. He is sitting on top of a carrot cake with cream cheese icing.

The Celtic Huddle

I made this in a class at Creative Cakes in Glasgow, it is the pre-game huddle of the Glasgow Celtic Football team. The 11 little men are made of fomdant.

Twinkle Twinkle

This is my attempt at Debbie Brown's Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, I really enjoyed making this. Attaching the walls was pretty tricky, I used a lot of parcel tape and then covered them with wrapping paper to hide the tape. I made the stripes on the wallpaper with my sugar gun, it was far easier to do than I imagined. Thanks for looking

Green And Gold 40Th Birthday Cake

This is a sugar paste covered vanilla sponge with cherry conserve filling. The roses are made with pale green flower paste and painted with gold luster dust disolved in a little vodka. The 40 is made with the FMM funky tapits. with flower paste and pained with lustre dust.

My Little Man (With Help From Aine2)

I just spent 2 days with Aine2, and she is amazing. I went to a workshop at her cake studio just outside Edinburgh and this is what I made. It was a fantastic couple of days and I can't believe the amount that I learnt.

Chocolate & Buttercream

I decided to experiment with some of the books I own but have never used and this was one of the results, a chocolate cupcake from "bake me I'm yours... Cupcake" by J & G Belgrove topped with Rose Levy Beranbaum's classic buttercream. I rushed the piping of the buttercream, I could have made it neater but I had lost track of time and it was 2am by the time I was putting the cakes together - the result was yummy, worth the effort.

Scottie Dog

Golf Retirement Cake

The rough, the fairway and the green. All fondant.

Santa's Stuck

This is a rich fruit cake covered in marzipan and fondant. The cake is 2 think layers carved into a house shape with a chimney shaped piece stuck on top with some sticky marzimpan. It was then all covered with fondant that was scored with a veining tool to give the brick effects. The doors and windows are made with fondant as are the roof tiles and the little santa stuck in the top. It was lots and lots of fun to make. I'm giving it to my 5 year old's teacher.

A Cake For My Mother In Law

This is one of my assesment cakes for college, I had to including embossing, crimping, royal icing piping, a floral arrangement and writing. I was scared before I started that all those techniques would be overkill on an 8" cake but I am pleasantly surprised by the end result. Myra is my mother in law, the cake is very much her style so I decided I would give it to her. It is a rich fruit cake covered in marzipan and sugarpaste, the roses are flowerpaste.

Cake For A Girl Who Loves Pink

My friend asked me to make a cake for her niece's 13th birhday, all she told me about her was that she loved pink so I had a lot of fun trying to get as made shades of pink onto the cake as possible. The topper is made from flower paste and everything else is fondant.

Welcome Baby Matthew
