Allison's Sleeping Beauty And Castle
This was for my DD's 6th Birthday. Chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream filling with mini chocolate chips. All buttercream icing with fondant decorations. I had so much fun making this for her and she helped me design it =) Of course it was WAY too huge for her party, I took the whole bottom tier to her school for the teachers and staff. TFL!

Jack And Jills Wishing Well
This was for a wedding of Jack and Jill and they wanted a well on top. I made the well out of RKT. I used my 1 cup plastic measuring cup to mold the base of the well, then covered it in gumpaste. Then I added the two cookie pop sticks for the support. I made the roof of the well out of gumpaste and let dry completely, it was just two rectangles and 2 triangles. I used white chocolate to secure the pieces to the sticks then i made gumpaste circles and used those for the shingles. Then I painted it with pearly confectioners glaze. The bride carried calla lilies and I made the mini bouquet on top (I purchased the larger ones below) I also made a small bucket out of gumpaste with J & J written on it. The mold for the bucket was actually a pacifier cover that I had in my cabinet. It was the perfect size and didn't mind getting coated with crisco so the GP wouldn't stick. The water in the well is tinted piping gel. Thanks for looking!

St. Patrick's Day Cake For The School
Vanilla caked dyed green with vanilla buttercream filling. All marshmallow fondant decorations. For my daughters school party. Thanks to CC for all the inspiration. The coins are fondant painted with super gold luster dust and vodka (several coats) Thanks for looking!!! I think it kind looks like a crazy topsy Leprechaun hat.

Keeley's Horse Cake
This was for my neighbor who was turning 6. She loves horses and isn't too girly so I made this. It's white cake with vanilla chocolate chip filling. It's all buttercream icing with fondant decorations. The horse is 100% fondant and this was the first horse I have attempted. I think it came out cute =-)

August Birthday
My new favorite! Vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream icing and filling with mini chocolate chips. Flowers are 50/50 fondant and gumpaste. So fun to make and cute to look at. I love it!! I made matching cake pops with pink flowers on them, but didn't get a pic. Thanks to PinkBunny and others who have created similar designs, I love the colors and it was super fun to make =)

Adam's Farm Cake!
This was for my sons first birthday! The top barn was his smash cake. Yes, it got everywhere and yes I was able to get it all out of his new white (what was I thinking) birthday shirt. It was AmeriColor Super Red in SugarShacks buttercream. The bottom two layers are chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream filling with mini chocolate chips. The top barn is plain vanilla cake with no filling (he never got to that anyway). I was inspired by so many wonderful cakes on CC. All the decorations on the first two tiers are fondant, top barn is all buttercream. Thanks for looking!

Madisons Doggy Cake
My daughters best friend had a doggy themed party and picked out this cake for me to make for her. I hid little M's and 5's in the middle tier =) It's all buttercream, but the doggy prints are fondant and the doggys and big M on top is Fondant. My first attempt at fondant animals. It's all chocolate with vanilla buttercream filling with mini chocolate chips.

Bag End With Gandalf Knockin' At The Door
I made this cake as a gift for my friend's 40th Birthday. The base cake is 12x18 vanilla with vanilla buttercream with mini chocolate chips and the house is 2 football pans that are chocolate cake with vanilla filling. Everything is edible from fondant and gum paste. This was the first time I have made characters (Gandalf) and vegetables. I think it came out good and everyone loved it. Thank you so much to everyone on CC for all their inspiration!

Colorful Birthday
This is a cake I made for a friends monthly office birthday party. I used my new paisley pans (small and medium). The cake is double chocolate with peanut butter mousse with mini chocolate chip filling. The white fondant is SI and all the colored fondant was the first batch of MFF that I had made. I had purchased the ribbon and designed the cake to match the ribbon. I was happy with out it turned out and everyone at the office loved it. They only wished they had some milk to go with it!

Tiana's Tootsie Roll Cake
For a friend's daughters 5th Birthday. Buttercream icing with fondant tootsie rolls on top and real tootsie rolls around the base. The invitation is next to it. The parents were supplying candles that spelled her name, that's why there is a blank space. It's yellow cake with chocolate chip filling.

Allison's Castle!
This was for my daughters 4th birthday. I used the Wilton Castle Kit and copied the design from the cover of the yearbook (and box). It took a long time and I had quite a few bumps along the way but everyone at the party, including my daughter, thought it was great. My DH was invaluable for this one!
