Made this for a friend's niece's birthday. Was excited to make this cake. Inside is choc and vanilla zebra-marble cake. All MMF decorations. Note to self: never EVER attempt coloring MMF with black ;o)
First Birthday cake for my lil guy
Top cake - 8" red velvet cake, and bottom - 10" marble cake. The top layer was so bulgy that I am glad how it finally turned out after polka dots and roses were added. The birthday gal was so happy, and that's what counts. She wanted purple, orange, yellow, green, with black letters and music notes. TFL!
40th Birthday Cake for my hubby. First attempt to do a chocolate collar with what I had at home, and learned a few lessons! Never use wax paper for chocolate transfers or collars! But it was yummy! TFL!
It was made to look more like a wedding cake as they never had one at their wedding! They had an actual wedding-like party for their anniversary! :D My aunt loved the cake.
For my niece's 10th Birthday on her request.
Made this for a good friend at work: hope she will like it. Each cake has a layer of choc and butter cake with buttercream frosting: 9" and 6". MMF covered with MMF beads and cutie-pie shoes! So proud of my very first MMF baby shoes! Thanks CC for instructions and inspirations. TFL!
Had so much fun making this in the middle of the night (for a friend's sis-in-law)! Could not work on all the details for the wood due to time, but I was so thrilled with the duckies! Choc cake, buttercream filling and coat with MMF decors. THANKS for all the inspirations CC!
Made this for my daughter's 4th birthday on her request for an Oz cake. All buttercream, candy coated pretzel rods for emerald city and rainbow twizler rainbow. Thanks for all the inspirations fellow CC'ers! TFL!
I made this for my mother's 70th Birthday: picture quality is not good, but my camera was missing, I was too busy preparing the surprise party, so this is from a friend's camera. My mom was so surprised and loved the cake!
Here I go again with my 3rd pooh cake three years in a row for my 3-year-old. She asked for a hundred acre wood this time, and many thanks to all of you from whom I got the inspirations and ideas. THANK YOU! The figures are chocolate transfers (my second attempt after the failed one on her first BD); cake is covered in MMF, and decorated with with BC trees, grass & clouds and other MMF accents. TFL! :-)
Made this for one of my best friends at work and tried to match the design to the popular chic momma and green color themes. THANKS so much for all the CCers for the inspirations and mostly for AIDA and Godiva from whom I totally copied ! The patches on the sides are actually covering up the tears on my last-minute made MMF, that went perfectly with the original design! TFL!
6" and 8" rounds with a cupcake for the smash cake. Covered in MMF with MMF decorations and a BC border. Plastic figurines are holding the cupcake. The final product had a # 1 at the front. I played around with several versions. TFL!
Made this for a friend's girl who turned two and loves Elmo/SS. MMF with green/pink/yellow marbeled butter cake inside. Used these figurines I ran into at Target. I liked the cake better without the characters. TFL and thanks for all in CC for teaching me SO much.
pooh and a few friends for my daughter's 2nd birthday. All MMF, covering and decorations. Thanks to ALL of you on CC for the inspiration and tips. Thanks aine2 for all the great tips and videos on the web for us newbies! TFL.
I think this is becoming my signature cake design, simply due to my crazy schedule and the ease with which this can be achieved with my so many left-over RI flowers!!! I had exactly 7 hours to put this together, starting from baking, making the BC icing and the BC flowers while the cakes cooled :) I am happy overall, although the cake needed time to set, and it shows with the bulge in the middle. I aimed for the Wilton Quiet Violets cake, and the RI roses are to hide the defects :) My mom thought it was ordered!! She made it all worth it!! TFL!
Made this Ariel Cake for my niece's 7th birthday on her request. The doll on top was part of my gift to her. One layer each of butter and chocolate cake with buttercream icing covered in MMfondant. MMF flat rocks and buttercream decorations. Added little characters from my niece's Little Mermaid Game playset.
This is the cake I made for my brother's wedding. All thanks to everyone on CC and especially Maria_Campos whose cake I tried to recreate. Well, it came out nothing like hers'. But I tried. TFL!
For a friend at work. Covered in MMF and decorated with BC cornelli lace and RI flowers.
Made this for my baby's first birthday. Although it is far from being even good, I am glad about how it finally turned out with all the things I had to manage other than the cake. Covered in MMF with MMF and BC decorations and my first chocolate transfer, pooh bear. Should have listened to all of you in CC and bought colored candy melts rather than trying to color bits of melts with Wilton gel color. Too much corn syrup and it was as good as molding chocolate! Pooh's face's smudged because of that. TFL!
Made this as a gift for hubby's friend at work who is going to have a baby. 8" two-layer, BC icing and filling, BC roses with Hershey kisses bases (!!) and chocolate flavoured border.
I am so thrilled about how these turned out. It was my first time making cupcakes. I never had a chance before actually. The new daddy (my hubby) asked yesterday why I never make cupcakes and here's what he and my father got, instead of the big cake I planned. Simple vanilla cupcakes with vanilla BC icing. Fresh fruit, RI flowers and BC leaves. Thanks for looking!
Phew...this marks the end of a busy cake weekend :) I am happy with how this cake turned out. Two 9 " rounds, red velvet cake, butter cream icing and royal icing Victorian Rose. Icing is totally butter, which made it ivory color. Hopefully my friend at work I made this cake for will like it...errr...it's for a guy! I was just not in the mood to make a guy cake! :)
Ok....very busy weekend making too many cakes and had to finish this cake while also decorating my hubby's birthday cake and baking two other cakes for a friend at work. Not too good, but hopefully my friend will like it. She loves everything watermelon and I got this idea from bakedecoratecelebrate.com. My cake is "nothing" like it! But I tried. Red velvet cake (used less cocoa) with chocolate chips and green BC icing.
The final product is not what I expected, but I am happy with the cake given the limited time I had between baby's naps. This is the first time I used a bench scraper to get the icing smooth. It was coming out very nicely, but it was already cake cutting time, so I had to stop smoothing and add the strawberries. Red velvet cake, buttercream icing and chocolate dipped strawberries. He loved it. That's all what matters :)
Had to make this cake so hurriedly for my mother between baby's naps. This was inspired by so many Mother's Day cakes in CC. Thanks to all of you!
