The bride doesn't eat cakes nor did she have a reception, so she wanted cupcakes as her wedding cake. But the catch is, she wanted them individually wrapped so the guest can take them with them as they walk out the church. So, I put each cupcake in a favor box and there you have it...
This was a purse cake I was asked to "donate" to my pastor's wife. It was Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing. It was literally a last minute request and I only had one day to make it. .So, it's not as detailed as I would have liked it to have been.
"Tiffany & Co" bridal cake (EVERYTHING IS EDIBLE--Diamond ring is chocolate, band is gumpaste)~cake is chocolate with vanilla buttercream.
My 1st helmet birthday cake for my hubby's friend & former military co-worker. I got a lot of my inspiration from fellow CCer's. Thanks~All Buttercream! The original gumpaste mask broke into pieces the day of pick up so I had to make a new one w/floral wire & fondant/gumpaste. It was a close call and now I know to always make extra gumpaste figures.
Tennis Racket Birthday Cake--All Buttercream Icing--Lemon cake, real strawberries & cream filling, topped with Vanilla buttercream. I made this for my little-big cousin (He's younger than me, but much bigger & taller than I am) birthday.
I made this cake to celebrate my church's groundbreaking ceremony. My church is about to start remodeling for a bigger church. God is good! Each picture is of a different angle of the church. I try to go for realism and did as much detail as possible.
This is a replica of the birthday Woman's handmade purse cakes.
Blinged-out Birthday Cake for a friend!
Cupcakes my hubby & I made this morning for Relay For Life.
Red Velvet cake w/cream cheese butter cream Graduation cake--chocolate picture frame, fondant cap, book cake w/college logo. I enjoyed making this cake for my big brother. It was made with lots of love. This was my gift to him and his accomplishment. I'm so proud of him too~
Customer/Friend wanted a purple & silver shoebox w/shoe cake for her mother's engagement party. Strawberry cake with Strawberry-n-cream butter cream icing all with two-toned gum-paste tulips. Shoe & flowers are all hand painted.
This is a carrot cake with orange cream cheese icing w/color flow doves & icing flowers. I made this for me & my hubby's 9th wedding anniversary. I had a hard time trying to smooth the cream cheese. You can see some of the orange zest in the frosting. After a few hours of smoothing (w/refrigerator breaks in between) I said, "forget it" and left it as is. It was a very moist & delicious cake. Thanks for looking~
Cookies-n-cream (C-n-C) cake with C-n-C butter cream icing. I made this for my hubby's 29th birthday. He is a huge Jacksonville Jaguars fan. I'm a little disappointed in the fact that it looks more like a gym bag than a golf bag. The jaguar logo is made out of fondant. I had to carve each detail separately. I had to redo it 4 different times using different methods. Carving it piece by piece was the winner. My next golf bag cake will look more like a golf bag. Thank you Lulubelle1970 for your instructions & advice. My cake didn't turn out as beautifully as yours.
These mini-cheeseburgers are cupcakes. My 1st ones too. TFL~
My 1st purse cake, gum paste shoe and lipstick. I LOVE Leopard print. Also, there is leopard print on top, the bottom & inside too! Took me 16 hrs to make, but I had fun and I learned through trial and error. My luster dust painting isn't up to par and it didn't come out as a deep gold (which I was looking for).

Spongebob's face is hard to draw. I thought it would be easy, especially with the icing writers. The black came out too thick, the other colors kept curving under. I don't think I'll be using icing writers to draw on cupcakes again. I'm accepting advice on how to get Spongebob's face to look right. Thanks! The cupcakes are butter flavor w/a hint of vanilla with vanilla buttercream icing. I added extra vanilla to the cupcakes & buttercream to make it pop. The icing tastes like vanilla ice cream.
Almond-vanilla flavored, Westie Terriers & Schnauzer pup cupcakes. I was tired of making the pups so I made roses.
All buttercream. Used FBCT and the sides are basket weave. Comment please. I'm still learning the basket weave technique. I'm not where I want to be, but I'm not where I used to be as far as my basket weave and cake decorating.
This is a cake for my MIL 49th b-day. All BC w/fondant turkey, pumpkins & corn-on-the-cob. My MIL took her finger and tasted the icing before I took this pic, so that's why it's a different color on the basket weave. TFL~comments & suggestions welcomed.
My family & I was CRAVING a cake so I made this one. It's strawberry banana cream cake filled with strawberry buttercream and iced in regular buttercream w/buttercream roses. It was so GOOOD! I think it's a rustic design. I was just practicing with my swag/vine thingy, but I couldn't see the indentations so I just went along and free-styled. I couldn't get my icing smooth so I used my comb smoother and this is what I ended up with. TFL! Tips, suggestions, comment, please.
Chocolate cake w/chocolate buttercream. Roses are also buttercream. This is my first time making buttercream roses. I learned by watching a youtube video. My icing was melting b/c it was 75 degrees in my house.
Bulging Eyeball cupcakes. Eyeballs are gummies.
Lemon cupcakes with chocolate brains (brains candy mold) and blood (Corn syrup tinted with Red & brown icing colors). TFL
All of these scary cupcakes are lemon cakes with lemon butter cream for my husband's Halloween job pot luck. They are bloody brains, bulging eyeballs, scary mummies, creepy crawlers & green vampires cupcakes with severed fingers & toes NFS cookies. TFL!
These are cupcakes that I did for a long time friend of mines (since HS). He's starting his own internet Radio show (10/27/09). The monograms says "Bellamy Show". These are lemon cupcakes with Lemon buttercream icing. TFL!
