Analeigh's Cake
I made this dummy cake in honor of my new niece. My entire family lives over 600 miles away, so I didn't make a "real" cake because I had no one to eat it, but I wanted my sister to know that I was thinking of her, so I made the cake I would have made for her shower, had I been there.

Kyle's Pirate Ship
Made for a friend's coworker who ordered it for her son's 4th birthday. She will add Peter Pan figurines to it for his "Hook" party. Thank you to bjfranco, ticelebrations, and shantel575 for posting the pictures of pirate ships that I was able to use as inspiration. Bottom tier: 12" round WASC with Lemon Buttercream Middle tier and Pirate ship: Chocolate Almond SC with Chocolate BC. Everything covered in Michele Foster's fondant. Sea creatures and shells are candy melts. I opted to make the sails paper instead of gum paste because the cake has to travel an hour and a half and I was afraid that they might break. TFL!

Tracy's Birthday Cake
I made this for a friend's birthday. I really wanted to make a Topsy-Turvy, but she doesn't have anyone to share the cake with except her husband, so I didn't want to give her a huge cake. WASC with Lemon Curd filling. Lemon Butter Cream coating. Covered in Michele Foster's fondant. I tried to cut corners and leave out the frosting dam and ended up regretting it, as you can see from the bulging fondant :-(. Lesson learned.

75Th Birthday Cake
I made this cake for my step-grandma's 75th birthday. I was 600 miles from home when I made it and out of my comfort zone, but she loved it, so it all worked out. Dark Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Ganashe on top, Pumpkin Spice with Cream Cheese Frosting on the bottom. Michele Foster's Fondant bows.

Just For Fun
I was baking for a customer and had some "leftovers" so I threw this together for the kids :). They, of course, loved it! It would have looked better with colored writing and such, but like I said, I was just using up the leftovers and didn't feel like mixing a batch of bc just to write with.

Dd's Birthday Cake
I made this cake for my dd's 3rd birthday. It was a strawberry cake with strawberry filling. The cake turned out dry and nasty. We ended up throwing it away and I'm still looking for a good moist white cake. I liked the way the outside looked though :-). Covered in Michele Foster's fondant. Royal Icing flowers.

Bunco Cake
10" Dark Chocolate Cake with Mocha bc filling and 8" White Cake with Vanilla bc. Fondant flowers and flamingos. I made this cake for Bunco night at church. As usual, I learned a lot and am embarrassed that the cake is showing through, but honestly, since this was my first tiered cake without the use of pillars, I was just happy it stayed in one piece :).

Benji's Fire Truck
My first carved cake ever. I know it leaves A LOT to be desired. My 4 year old nephew was visiting from Oregon and I really wanted to make this for him but I didn't have much time. I did this from start to finish (including baking the cake and letting it cool) in 4 hrs. I didn't take the time to smooth the frosting much, or ice the tires or put many details, but he LOVED it!
