Fondant frosting, made for a jewelry store bridal event. March 2016
I made this fondant wedding cake for my cousin & then transported it 7 hours away to another state! Everything turned out great! Silk roses were used for the accents.
This cake was made for one of my favorite clients. The bride chose non-edible rhinestone buttons for the flower centers. It looked really neat with the rest of her decor!
This cake was done for a fellow wedding vendor's daughter. She gave me the color theme & said "just go with it". This is what I came up with.......I carved the middle of the top tier out to give it an "indented" look for where the bow would be.
This cake was made for a retirement party. Decorated with buttercream frosting, fondant bow & royal icing roses.
This was a chocolate fudge cake decorated with fondant. It was made for a Hawaiian Luau themed birthday party. I used a half ball pan for the "coconuts".
The "separator" for this cake is actually a glass candle holder that I found at a thrift shop. I thought it was a neat design so I designed a cake around it. I've duplicated it several times & it has actually turned out to be one of the most popular designs with my clients. Funny....all from a trip to the thrift store!
4 tiers, all buttercream, pillared with flowers in between. I think the florist did a great job with the flowers! The border was made of sheer ribbon. The ribbon looks spotted in the picture, however it looked fine in person (I think it was just from the flash on the camera). I have other photos where the ribbon looks fine, but this really is the best picture of the cake itself so I wanted to use it for posting. TFL!
This is a chocolate fudge groom's cake that I made for a rehearsal dinner. The guitar is a replica of the groom's guitar (she brought me a picture). Ladybugs had some significance for the two of them so the bride asked for a ladybug to be crawling on the guitar. All fondant decor with airbrushing.
This was a wedding cake for a bride who wanted several different shades of purple. Fondant with royal icing scroll work and fondant bow. Real ribbon was used around the base.
Chocolate fudge cake with buttercream icing and fondant accents (Edible image transfer). It was my first edible image. I bought three of them from my local supplier in case I had any problems & needed to start over. Everything went perfect with the first try - I was so happy!
I've seen a few cakes with zebra stripes & so I thought I would give it a try. I made this cake for my friends 26th birthday over the weekend. Not only does she love the mad hatter style cakes, but she is a huge 80's fan. I thought by adding the zebra stripes with her two fave colors (bright green & pink) it gave it the perfect 80's look. She loved it! :)
This is the back of the truck.
This cake was made to look somewhat like "Tow Mator" from the cars movie. Chocolate fudge cake with chocolate fudge frosting & fondant accents. I airbrushed a little black on him here & there to get a more rusty & beat up look to him.
All fondant with fondant bows. The ribbon on the bottom was real. If I remember correctly, the tier sizes were 12" - 10" - 6".
This was the first chocolate wedding cake I've ever done. I was really happy with the way it turned out & so were they. Tier sizes were 16" - 10" - 6" & the inside was chocolate fudge cake with raspberry filling.
This was a cake that I did for a bridal show. This one went a little backwards than normal....I saw the topper first, then designed the cake around it. The middle tier was copied off of something I saw done in a European cake magazine. There are four phrases in different languages on the cake...... Love, Amour, Amore, & Je taime. And then of course the X's & O's for hugs & kisses!
This cake was done for a Cinderella themed wedding. Frosted with buttercream icing (brick imprinted) & fondant accents. The turrets & stairs were styrofoam that I covered in brick imprinted fondant. I also sprinkled sanding sugar on the turrets to make them sparkle. I suggested that we use a barbie doll shoe on the stairs so it was size appropriate, but the bride wanted it to be bigger so that it would stand out more.
This was made for a little girls first birthday. The cake is a replica of her stuffed puppy that she carries around with her everywhere. Buttercream icing with fondant accents.
I made this for a couple's 70th Anniversary!!!!!! All buttercream with royal icing roses.
All buttercream with fresh flowers & ribbon trim.
The brides dress was pink instead of the traditional white, so I did this for her bridal shower. The small purse is made of fondant and the shoes are white chocolate.
All buttercream icing with fondant bows
I made this "Steelers" football helmet for my husbands birthday. Buttercream icing with fondant accents.
This was made for a groom who is obsessed with golfing. The golf balls are made out of white chocolate & everything else was fondant except for the wooden dowels that were used for the "stick" part of the golf clubs. The clubs were originally going to go into the top of the cake for extra support, but when I arrived with the cake, they had found a topper they wanted to put on it so we I placed the clubs around it instead.
I did this one as a gift for my friend's baby shower. The theme was pink, purple & sage green with butterflies.
