Ocean Waves
Here's my CC Throw Down cake --- 10" and 8" vanilla cake with SMBC and strawberry filing; painted fondant finish; silver highlighted "waves" to separate the colors ; chocolate seashells and seahorses; and gum paste flowers.

Pink Gift Box
White cake with SMBC filling and Sugarshack's buttercream on the outside for smoothness. Pink fondant ribbon, white buttercream dots, and gumpaste gift tag. I stuck my finger in the cake (upper left corner of the front panel) so there's a patch of mismatched icing there. I am a Critique Subgroup member so please feel free to comment! Thank you.

This was a last minute cake and a pain in the neck to frost. I baked it in a 4â flower pot with no problems, but my buttercream did not crust. Then, I couldnât pipe a straight border for the lip of the pot no matter how many times I tried; hence, we have a ruffle top that was put on just 10 minutes before the customer arrived. UGH!! The flowers are royal and the leaves gp. I am a Critique Subgroup member, so all comments welcomeâ¦Thanks.

Peach Swirls
Vanilla cake with vanilla SMBC -- 10, 8, 6" -- buttercream icing, roses, and tiny leaves -- satin ribbon. Critic Subgroup Members: I think my swirls are too large (#5 tip) and the ribbon too narrow, but otherwise a pretty design (found by the bride in a magazine). thanks so much for your comments!

Gumball Machine
Critique Subgroup Member: Replica of Jeanne's (jkalman) cake made with permission from the original artist. ;-D Stacked and carved four 6" cakes, covered with SMBC and Satin Ice Red fondant. Top, or cap, of machine just appears crooked due to a shadow -- it was a perfect circle. Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions.
