My niece loves the pirates of the caribean and asked me for a Black Pearl pirate ship. I wasn't sure how to make it but here it is . . the ocean, the island and the bottom half of the ship are cake, buttercream frosting. top half of cake is poster board with lego people and some stuff I added. The ocean is an 11x13 sheet that I cut in half lengthwise. One side is a little higher than the other to give the illusion that the front of fthe ship is higher. The island is cake with brown sugar.
this is home made buttercream frosting spray painted blue .. I used real sea shells bought at the store and some scrapbooking stickers..see weed is made of royal icing
My friend was moving to Italy to pursue his modeling career and so he had a huge party before he left. This is what he asked for. White cake w/ blueberry filling, Chocolate cake w/ white frosting filling and White cake w/ cherry filling. I used the scroll kit from Wilton for the designs and then just traced over the imprints. I used Delphenium Blue for the color
My twin cousin's are in love with Elvis so I made them these square cakes. All the circles were made of fondant and I hand rolled all the balls around the border. I then used a dry paint brush to add sparkling edible dust to all the circles and balls around the border. I bought tiny circles from my craft store, drilled holes in the middle and painted them like records and then wrote the names of Elvis songs on them. I also turned pics of my cousins into paper dolls and put them on the cakes with popsicle sticks.
This was a chocolate cake for my niece's bday..home made buttercream frosting spray painted blue. Flowers were made with fondant. The tree was NOT suppose to be a part of the cake. It was just a practice thing. I used fondant for the trunk and it was not done properly! The leaves were suppose to be fondant also. But my niece saw me makeing it and insisted I put it on her cake so I couldn't say no .. Kinda cheezy looking but here it is.
My friend wanted a religious type cake for her baby shower so I made this using the book cake pan from Wilton. Home made buttercream recipe from Wilton also. Free handed all the lettering and put a picture of the ulrasound on the right side.
This is the 2nd wedding cake I've made. It was chocolate, white and yellow cakes with the buttercream icing recipe from Wilton. It was very simple, no real decorations as this is what the bride wanted. I only draped plastic pearls around each cake. I know it is hard to see but it is there.
I am NOT a professional cake maker! I am learning how to make cakes by watching videos online and doing a lot of reading. I would LOVE to take a class but I cant afford to right now. So here is one of my cakes. My niece wanted a chocolate cake with Cubs stuff on it. The icing is a buttercream recipe I got off the Wilton site and I used fondant to do the base plates, running area, and Cubs jersey. I used a tip that makes grass for all the grass. I did have a little bit of a problem with the writing as it kept falling into the grass spacing. lol.. never the less, it was a hit. Thanks for any comments!
