This cake was for an engagement party with a fall/halloween theme. 3 layers of 8" square chocolate cake (two for box, 1 for lid) covered in bc then mmf. Gumpaste rings and gp/mmf bow. Thanks for looking!
That was a LOT of fondant! 6-8-10-12-14" tiers (bottom two were styrofoam) covered in mmf with mmf stripes, dots and diamond pattern. It came out ok, but not nearly as crisp as I would have liked. Bow is gp/fondant mix. Replica of cake from theknot.com. Thanks for looking!
6-8-10-12" cakes covered with ivory buttercream. Ivory ribbon and white scrolls. Flowers are gumpaste Viola's (pansy hybrid) in shades of orange/gold. I didn't really like the flowers or that she wanted the top on pillars, but I liked the overall design. Thanks for looking!
Non-professional picture! I took this one of the front. Still not sure if the texture on the drape is visible, but thanks for looking!
This is my entry for the 2008 SC State Fair. It was also on display at an event hosted by a wedding planner. This picture was taken by a professional photographer. They didn't really get the front of the cake, but it is still a great picture. It is 6-8-10-12" cake forms covered in MMF. The drape (you can hardly see) was MMF with clear crystal sprinkles pressed in to it. The gumpaste flowers are meant to be fictional and the centers had crystal sprinkles and silver dragees in them.

Glad that's over! Not sure I'll ever suggest offset squares again. I did a lot of trimming to get them to fit right and they still could have been smaller. Started out as 6-8-10-12" squares covered in white buttercream. She wanted different designs on each tier. Thanks for looking!
6", 9" & 12" square tiers covered with buttercream. Black buttercream piping. The "C" topper was made of gumpaste. This goes with the drum grooms cake in my photos. Thanks for looking!!!
So glad this cake is done! It was a lot of work, but I think it turned out great. I posted for help in the forum and THANK YOU to everyone who responded. It was six 10" rounds stacked and carved. Covered with black Satin Ice fondant. Top was made a couple days ahead out of fondant/gumpaste mix. Tassels and holders were gumpaste. Flower scene was piped on with buttercream. Thanks for looking!
Hi. The cup was carved from a 10" square cut down the middle and stacked. Covered with buttercream and mmf. It was for my best friend whose favorite drink is a Caramel Frappucinno. I tried to get that flavor for the cake and icing also. The logo, receipt and Vera Bradley change purse were all edible images attached to fondant. She really liked it. Thanks for looking!
6" and 8" tiers covered in buttercream. Bow and banner were gumpaste. Fondant stripes and circles. So cute! I think it would make a great baby shower cake too. Thanks for looking!
Hi! I used the bottom of the giant cup cake pan to carve the top of the cup and an 8" round for the plate. Covered both with buttercream, then white fondant. Painted the roses on with a mixture of petal dust and clear vanilla. I also painted on the gold trim with luster dust and vanilla mixture. Rose, handle and tea bag were gumpaste. Thanks for looking! Inspired by "Old Country Roses" china pattern.
This cake was based on the Fancy Nancy character for a 4 year olds birthday. The bottom tier was decorated with mmf and the top was done in buttercream. The accents were gumpaste and fondant. I think it turned out really cute. Thanks for looking!
I like how this cake came out, but wish the writing was more legible. It says "Who can find a virtuous woman, for her price is far above rubies." Used two-mix book pan covered in buttercream. The ribbon was made of gumpaste. Thanks for looking!
