Land Of Nursery Rhymes
When you open this book, you are welcomed to a very strange land! A round little egg-like man appears to be perched precariously on a wall, and an old woman lives in a shoe! There are mice that love to run up clocks , and tuffets with spilled curds and whey. The spider (who caused the spill!) and the mouse both have a small motors in them that make them move. All edible - no styrofoam!

Ace Of Cakes Bakers Nightmare
This cake was for a competition that Duff from Ace of Cakes was judging. The theme of this cake was "The Bakers Nightmare". The cake was about the fear we (us cake people) have of breaking or dropping our cakes! The base had a motor in it that would make all the cakes spin, and the bakers were designed to look like they were struggling to hold up the cake. The bakers are different people from the Ace of Cakes show. Duff is the one who has already dropped his cake!

Raspberry Cheesecakes On Display
These are 6 inch round raspberry swirl cheesecakes with chocolate ganache topping. I purchased a black candle stand from Hobby Lobby that I thought would be perfect for holding small cakes. I then attached crystals to it to make it an elegant "chandelier cake stand". The raspberries in the middle are sitting on a flower bowl made from modeling chocolate.

Slices Of Cake
I wanted to do a cake with tiers using only one cake mix. The bottom is a 8 inch cake pan that was only filled half way and then cut in half and I placed one half on top of the other. The second tier is a six inch pan that was only a third full of cake batter and then was cut in half and half again and stacked on each other. The rest of the batter went into the muffin tin (there was enough left for 2 or 3 cupcakes - extra for me!). It's covered in fondant and chocolate clay.

767 Airplane Cake
This cake was made using foam core board for the wings and 1 inch stryofoam for the bottom of the plane. The cake is balanced on 3 wood dowels that were screwed in to the bottom board. The run way has real working lights. This was for a birthday, thus the balloons and banner attached to the wing.
