Hocus Pocus Birthday
I was asked to make a magic-themed cake for a four year old. Coins are wrapped chocolate, letters in RI, covered with BC, and the other accents are fondant/gumpaste blends. I had more stars to come out of the cake, but since I wasn't keeping them in, I only stuck a few in for the picture.

Bow Topper Birthday Cake
I was asked to make a birthday cake for one of my husband's bosses. So I took this as an opportunity for experimentation (with her permission of course!) This cake was a bunch of firsts... new cake flavor (Cinnamon Bun), new icing (Cream Cheese icing that crusts, which I found here) and a new technique (fondant bow topper).

Elephant And Polka Dot Baby Shower
After taking a month or so break from cake for the holidays, I was asked to make a "onesie" cake for a baby shower. The nursery theme was vaguely polka dots and elephants, and the colors were mint green and chocolate brown. I don't think I will ever be able to make BC dots without looking like "kisses", but oh well. This was my first time using tappits, so the letters are a bit imperfect, but I LOVE them...
