Purple Jewelry Box Birthday Cake
Sculpted jewelry box with gumpaste jewelry for 80th birthday. Bottom of box is constructed of 3 layers of Italian cream cake and the lid is one layer with foamed cardboard underneath. I really like the texture of the box, it almost looks like suede or velvet. The request was that there be a strand of pearls coming out of the box. Since the cake was traveling for 6 hours I had to make the necklace out of a pearl border instead of individual pearls. I also decided to add more pearl jewelry in addition to a gold initial.

3 Tier Birthday Cake
Three tier buttercream birthday cake. Lady picked it up and then called me an hour later and said the cake collapsed. The bottom tier was damaged as shown. The middle tier had no damage at all. The top tier was flattened on the top (huh?)and all of the roses had to be replaced. I was the better person (holding my breath) and repaired the cake on-site. The third picture is the repaired cake. Why can't people just be honest? I would have repaired the cake for her regardless of how the damage happened!
