Castle Cake
Yellow butter cake, French buttercream. My first castle cake and one of the first I've done with fondant. Definitely an art form I have not mastered : ) Buttercream accents. The towers are all cake except the roofs of the towers are hollow (just fondant/gumpaste cones on top). Fun to do and a big hit with my 3 year old!

Fireman_Retirement.jpg
Thanks to Gibsongirl and ddpie for inspiration! 14x22" chocolate raspberry sheet cake, with layer of chocolate ganache beneath French buttercream. Retirement for a man who worked for 30 years for an organization serving those with mental illness and whose passion is firefighting, so I tried to incorporate everything. Boy, I find it impossible to get RED RED with meringue-based buttercream!
