Chevron Polka Dot Monogram Cake
I made this for my daughter. Chevron is some tricky stuff. Flower is gumpaste with a fondant ball center, outlined with pink pearl dragees. I had a different set of numbers for the '13', the '3' ended up breaking on me while putting onto the cake (I think I was too impatient and added the silver glaze too soon before it was completely dry...oops).

Dolphin Sea Coral Cake
Made this one for my daughters 6th birthday this year. She wanted a dolphin & some shells on her cake, but also liked the idea of a sandcastle cake....which was actually my intentions for the bottom tier. The sand on the cake did not appear the same color as the sand I had put on the paper towel rolls for the 4 outside corners, so I changed everything at the last minute. Top tier is Strawberry cake, the bottom is Lemon cake. Coral is caramelized sugar, Sixlet Pearls, White Chocolate & fondant shells painted with luster dust, MMF dolphin. THANK YOU Lapazlady for your help with the coral!! Very much appreciated! =)

Aqua Parisian Cake
This was my first attempt at the rose swirls. When my friend told me she wanted this for her daughter I was excited, of course....but nervous at the same time.

The dress form & bling ribbon loop button are not edible. Thanks for looking!

Football/poker Grooms Cake
I did this one for my cousin who FINALLY decided to get married!! I was so excited for him that I baked this cake at my home in Louisiana & drove to my aunts house (5 hrs) to finish decorating it & then delivered the cake in 105 degree weather on a 1.5 hour transport. Much to my surprise, this was actually one of my least stressful cakes & held up VERY well in the heat! Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl cake with Chocolate ganache filling. The football is RKT. DSU stands for Delta State Univ. Thanks for looking!

Dallas Cowboys Golfing Cake
This was for my hubby, who, obviously, loves the Cowboys AND Golfing. Golfing is his new fave, but the Cowboys are the love of his life! Red Velvet cake. He surprised me that day with, "I'm getting off work an hour early today!".....right at that moment he was leaving. SO, I didn't get to spend as much time on the 'dents' of the ball as I'd liked.

Princess Pillow With Tiara
My first attempt at a 'pillow' cake. This was for my cousin's little girl & I wanted to do something out of the ordinary, aside from the usual round/square tiers. Mom said, "The theme is princess & do whatever you want with the cake!" I bought the pan set just for this cake! Preferred to cover the pillow in fondant, but I was pretty well pleased with how the buttercream turned out. Tiara & wand are gum paste w/non-edible jewels, tiara matches the one on the invites. All other accents are MMF. This was a fun cake, thanks for looking! =)

Daisy Cake & Cupcakes
I was SO excited to do this cake! I knew the doily wrappers would be PERFECT for these cupcakes so I was THRILLED when I asked if I could do them. I was AMAZED at how easy they were. This is all French Vanilla cake with White Chocolate Buttercream. I was sad because the nicely 'piled high' cupcakes had sank a good bit before reaching their destination....the joys of living in Louisiana... Flowers are MMF. Thanks for looking! A big THANK YOU to the CC'er who posted the doily wrapper idea!!

Shoebox With Shoe
My daughter's nurse asked me to make this for her daughter's birthday. Boy, did I have fun with this one. Butter cake, ganache filling, Vanilla BC, Butter MMF accents, gum paste shoe. This was my 2nd heel for this shoe, I could NOT achieve what I was going for. The actual heel for the REAL shoe is 4-3/4" in. high & slightly thinner, but I already knew I couldn't do that. I just did the best I could with it. The white dots are done with a skewer dipped in White icing color (wilton). Thanks for looking.
