4 tiers, covered in my yummy homemade (NOT marshmallow) fondant. The leaves are made with gumpaste and are red with pearl dust.
For a girl turning 12. The cake is red velvet, so the inside matched the outside. :) And it is a REAL red velvet cake... not chocolate cake colored red....
All the figures and sunflowers are made of gumpaste. I thought this cake ended up looking a little like a mix of Van Gogh's Sunflowers and Pixar cuteness. ;)
This cake was created for an Icing Smiles recipient. It was such a great experience doing this cake - I encourage everyone to sign up to be a donor bakery!!!
A very detailed Road of Life, celebrating 80 years of a life well lived. SO many details on this cake, including an edible image of the lady's actual high school (torn down in the early 70s) that I found on the internet; a chicken for her family farm, dominoes on a train track for "mexican train", and on and on. So much fun.
A playable Angry Birds cake. All the figures are made from gumpaste. The "glass" is isomalt.
Large center square stack with two side satellite cakes
Handmade gumpaste fall leaves, twigs, acorns and berries. I was so happy with how this cake turned out, and I got a phone call later that evening from the MOB telling me that the cake was "one of the highlights of the wedding". Inside it is fall themed as well -- I made a vanilla cake and made an apple cinnamon filling. It tasted like apple pie. (I know, since I had some of the cake crowns...) ;)
Four tier cake, half dark chocolate with dark chocolate ganache filling, half vanilla with buttercreme filling. The hydrgangeas on the wedding cake are silks - do not EVER put real hydrangeas on a cake! They require a constant source of water, and on top of that, they are HIGHLY toxic! I made a seperate stand-alone anniversary tier, and that one I made gumpaste hydrangeas for, since it wil be frozen.
All buttercreme, except for gum paste ivy
36 cupcakes - half chocolate silk, and half lemon. The centerpiece cake was also lemon. All had raspberry creme filling. The baby, flowers and booties are all made out of gumpaste.
On short pillars with silk roses between the tiers. The bottom cake was chocolate silk with buttercreme frosting. The middle and top tiers were french vanilla with pomegranate creme filling. The air conditioning had just been turned on at the facility when I arrived to set up! And it was STEAMY in there. I was a little nervous about my no-Crisco cake!
Beach themed birthday cake! With brown sugar sand and gum paste accents.
The little girl saw Suessical recently and fell in love with Cat in the Hat. The hat is made out of RKT covered in fondant - the first time I've tried it. It was really easy to do! :)
Four tiers - (I had to start big)... :)
I used to live in a dorm that was within the walls of the Horseshoe, so this project was especially close to my heart. :)
And yes, the birthday boy's name IS Kasey. :-) The whole cake is chocolate silk with buttercreme filling and frosting. The letters and the number 14 are fondant.
Mother's Day and birthday cake. She will be 68, so I put 68 daisies on top. It's a marble cake with raspberry creme filling, covered in buttercreme with fondant strips and a bunch 'a fondant daisies! I got the inspiration from a cake I found here on CC - mine isn't nearly as nice, unfortunately I didn't bookmark the photo but if you know the original, I'd love to post my thanks/credit!
My husband asked me last night to make a Thank You cake for his secretary. So here it is. :) I played with my airbrush and a stencil on this cake, and I made "clouds" by spraying around ripped up pieces of paper towel. The flowers on top are made with buttercreme, using the brush embroidery technique. The whole cake is buttercreme, with chocolate silk cake.
