Iced Sugar Cookies - Chris & Aseel
Sugar cookies iced with royal icing, made for my stepson and future daughter-in-law's rehearsal dinner this evening. These were to go with the tuxedo/bride strawberries that I just uploaded. This was my first attempt at icing cookies. I decided not to flood the cookies and outline only. Everyone loved them. I wish I had thinned the icing a bit more, I had problems with the icing crackikng. In the end, I think they turned out ok for my first time.

I like how it turned out, more importantly she liked it!! Cakes are 8" chocolate, 10" white with grossgrain 1" purple border with 1/2" violet flower border.

Loukas' Baptism Cake
6", 8" and 10" chocolate cakes with chocolate fondant. Bears are fondant/gumpate. I had not made a cake since November so I was quite nervous about this one, especially since it was for my coworker's newphew's baptism! I showed mom various pictures for inspiration and this is the style she liked. I think it turned out ok.

50th wedding anniversary cake. Carrot cake with ivory fondant, roses and leaves are half fondant and half gumpaste, it was so HEAVY! I'm pleased with how it turned out. It's only my second time making roses since I took the Wilton's classes in the spring. The original photo I posted was taken at the hall, it was on a beautiful silver stand and as a topper I added a gold 50 . I decided to change the photo because this one is clearer and you can see the details better. Thanks for looking.

First Baby Shower Cake
Thank you to didi5 for the inspiration and to kiddiekakes for the onesie pattern. Cake iced in buttercream with fondant accents. Ribbon is fondant and gum paste. I had problems with the stripes, they stretched when I put them on. Might roll thicker next time and on smaller mat so it's easier to peel them off. Colours turned out a bit brighter than I wanted but in the end I was really happy with the result. I hope the mother-to-be liked it, I'll find out tomorrow! Thanks for looking.

Fondant Square Wedding Cake
I just came back from delivering and setting up my very first wedding cake YIPPEE!! Not perfect but I'm quite happy with it. Two chocolate and 2 white tiers, coated with buttercream and covered in fondant with hand-rolled fondant border (6", 8", 10" and 14"). I still need practice will rolling large amounts of fondant and making perfect corners which these are not! Any advice/guidance would be most welcome! I finally received the photographer's pictures so I decided to update the pics. TFL
