I was so happy to win Second place in the advanced novelty tiered catagory.
orange zest cake with Grand Marnier buttercream and raspberry jam filling. Topped with fresh fruit and berries.
I saw this cake online somewhere ( maybe even from this site) and copied the general idea of the design but tweaked it a little to make it my own. Buttercream with fondant accents.
okay some people thought this looked like a manatee (sp). I agree. The nose needed to be slim and longer. An airbrush machine would have done wonders on this but still on my list of items to puchase. Also used the steamer method to get the fondant shiny but the shine faded by the morning and it also spread droplets of water that created holes in the fondat within hours. not sure the trick on that but would love to try again.
a simple cake I made one afternoon to take to a friends house. I thought it was pretty.
buttercream with fondant accents. Took me three hours to make buttercream for this cake on a very humid day. Wasn't setting up right.
this idea was borrowed from someone here on CC. I added fresh ochids as this was the brides flower of choice

from "pretty party cakes" book. This took some time but was so easy and turned out pretty. I finally had my phootographer friend come over and do a backdrop for the picture. Now my cakes look professional without all the clutter in the background. This will be entered into the great american cake show this weekend. Wish me luck!
all fondant flowers, bee and butterfly. I had a heck of a time carving this cake even so next time I will bake it in an actual terra cotta pot. Also sprayed with Pam to make it shiny however, it made the fondant buckle and stayed soft. had to put in fridge to set up but damage stayed
a sampling I did for a coffee shop owner that wanted to sell my cupcakes in her store. Unfortently we couldn't reach an agreement. She wanted me to sell them to her for 2.50 so she could mark them up to 3.95. I initially went in thinking I would sell them at 4 ( with wrappers included but not shown in picture). I went as low as $3 because I knew I was still making a decent profit. Then I decided if she could sell them for 3.95 then so could I. Why go through someone else who will take a cut?
sage green and brown fondant rattle
A heart shaped box of chocolates. That's the idea behind this lemon cake with lemon curd filling. Covered in fondant and fondant bow and hearts with a touch of shimmer.
