Hawaiin Birthday
For a girl who was turning 22 and moving to Hawaii. (I'm jealous). I used graham crackers for the sand and the ocean using 3 different colors. The palm tree is MMF (didn't look like I thought it would) with a dowel holding it up. Beach towel and surfboard MMF. Flowers are MMF with super sparkle (love sparkles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)Fun cake to make.

Wedding Cupcake Tower
This was my 1st wedding and my 1st cupcake tower. It was for a great friend of mine and I am so proud that she trusted me with it. Her theme was daisies and her colors were white, silver, and antique blue. The cupcakes toppers are royal icing monograms (blue and white painted with pearl and sparkle) and MMF daisies (blue and white, also painted with pearl and sparkle). The bride ordered the cardboard tower and decorated it herself. It was a little unsteady, but held up fine.

Virgina Tech Hokie Football Cake
This was a groom's cake for a HUGE Hokie fan and the man that a very good friend of mine is marrying. Neither of them knew what the cake was going to look like, just that it would be a Hokie theme. All BC, Hokie bird is FBCT. I had 2 field goals made out of MMF, but they didn't hold up under the strain. They really would've finished out the cake though.

Pink Flowers Bridal Shower
Design and flowers on side match bride's dress. Flowers, pearls, and roses all MMF dry dusted with pearl dust and sparkle. 1st time doing tiara and pearls. The pearls are digging into the side of the cake and that really steams me because I bent the wire and everything to prevent it. OH WELL. Broke 1 tiara and was glad that I made 2. Thanks for the article cake central. Was a gift for the bride from me.

Chocolate Cupcakes
Can't do much (as far as color goes) with chocolate icing, so I did these chocolate transfer Happy Birthday letters. My aim was for them to look like fire, but they didn't really turn out that way. I still thought it looked pretty cool though. One question, does anyone else think that the icing looks like what I think it looks like????

Best Friends
This cake has writing all around. It says to love, to care, to trust, to share, to laugh, and to live. I was inspried by another cake on this website to do the colors and the flowers. I think that the color are a beautiful combo. Oh yeah, and I messed up the writing on the top at first (was trying to write on the blue icing), so I just threw on some MMF and wrote on that. It actually looks better that way so I guess you do learn from your mistakes huh.
