My first try at a guy-themed birthday cake. This is a yellow cake with lemon curd.
This is a cake I made based on a photo form the latest Wilton book. It was for a 60th birthday party. It's Chocolate Cake with dark chocolate ganache and chocolate buttercream
This is a white cake with lemon curd filling, a pomegranate glaze, with lemon buttercream crumb icing and a patterened fondant finish. Daisies are made with fondant.
Co-workers have been bugging me to bring a cake in, but work has been so hectic. Put this one together in just two hours, so my icing is not smooth. This is a 10" Chocolate Cake with Andes mint chocolate filling. To cut down on decorating time I pipped a simple border, and then used cinnamon jellies and fondant heart cut-outs to decorate.
I was asked to make a cake for a Kwanzaa open house, so this is what I came up with. Originally, it was going to be more ornate, with afrocentric stencils, but I ran out of time. The 10" is four layers of classic white alternated with classic yellow, with rasberry preserve filling. The 8" is lemon cake with lemon curd filling. The 6" is carrot cake with thin layer of buttercream filling. I was trying to cater to the different tastes of the guests. This is my first time making a stacked cake.
Decided to do something other than my standard buttercream with flowers. So, this is my first buttercream/fondant cake. I'm still working on smooth icing, but I like it. On my way to dinner with friends - hope my hosts like it too!
Still working on getting my icing smooth . . . sigh.
This is a Chocolate Cake with a creamy Baileys Irish Creme filling. I call this my "Sugar Baby Cake"
Decided to make a baby-themed cake for my finale, inspired by the baby boom at work. No training in fondant figures, but saw a cake and wanted to duplicate it. F unny story, though - my biological clock must be OUT OF CONTROL! Last night I dreamt that someone came in and kidnapped the fondant babies . . . geez, I need a life!!! Cake will be done next week, and I'll post pictures.
The cake I was actually supposed to use for my finale fell, so I improvised, with the help of my teacher, Rhea Spainhower. I actually like the result. Be kind, though - this was my first time with Basket Weave AND Pansies
I used the left over flowers from my "homework" to make this for my Book Club Brunch
