Reese 3Bd Cookie Bouquet
NFSC w/ Toba's glaze.My first time using Toba's glaze and it taste pretty good. My first time w/ cupcake cookies. After seeing all the lovely ones here on cc I was happy that I got an order for it this weekend. I'm not totally please w/ how it came out but it was not bad for my first time w/ this icing. I wish I could have gotten the outline more even. What's the trick to that?

Prince Aidyn's 1St Bd Cake
This was my son's first birthday cake. Top- tiramisu w/ bavarian cream filling, middle- keylim w/- cream cheese filling, bottom- chocolate w/ baavarian cream filling. Iced in cream cheese and covered in Chocolate MMF w/ MMF accents, g I spent all week on his cake and cookies and was about to cry when the cake topple over! This was my first attempt w/ wedges for the whimisical effect. I think I didn't dowel the cake all the way through and with Texas heat it started to melt and then buckled and toppled over.

Girl Babyshower 6/2007
Chocolate amaretto cake w/ bavarian filling. I finally realized a tip to making MMF smooth! Ha, live and learn. It's to make the mmf a day ahead. I normally make it the same day & use it right awya and could never get it smooth or from ripping. But I used leftover MMF for this cake and it was soo much easier and was just like how I see on TV. I know it's not 100% smooth but it is a huge improvement from my cakes before.

Diana's Babyshower 2007
My first belly cake. I didn't carve the belly and it looks funny but I didn't want to waste cake, well now I learned and will carve next time. 9x13 yellow cake w/ pineapple filling. Belly was a chocolate amaretto cake w/ bavarian filling. Breast were 2 big cake truffles. Iced in whipped cream cheese frosting. I had tried a new recipe for an icing similar to Kroger's but it was nasty and didn't want to waste it so I used it for the roses so it looks like she is laying on a bed of roses.

Donna's Babyshower 2007
Cake to match invite that was given to me. Chocolate cake w/ cookies & cream filling, buttercream dream icing and MMF accents (& top tier). Another cake that I can not stand the way it looks, that's 3 in a row. I think I should just throw in the towel! I guess I put too much filling so the cake started to bulge and lean. Then I couldn't get the MMF on top tier smooth, and then I made one of the bow loop too big so it looks weird. Then I couldn't get the pearl dust to go on the bow to a finish that I liked.

Bella's 1St Birthday Cake
Top tier: chocolate cake w/ bavarian cream filling, middle tier: chocolate cake w/ cookies & cream filling, bottom tier: WASC w/ cookies & cream filling. Iced w/ buttercream dream then covered in MMF w/ MMF accents. This cake took forever to make and I wish I could have made the fondant smoother but I just can't seem to smooth it for the life of me.. She loved the cake and it was fun to make just time consuming. Critiques appreciated!

Haylie's 3Rd Birthday Cake
Chocolate cake in Wonder mold w/ MMF and marshmellow filling. 10" cake on bottom is strawberry w/ marshmellow filling and iced in cream cheese icing. Tail is MMF and all other accents are from starbursts. I couldn't find a red head doll pick for little mermaid so it doesn't really look like Ariel. First time w/ a mermaid cake, not totally satisfied but it's ok.
