Teapot Cake
I made this for an 86 year old lady's birthday. The teapot is chocolate with strawberry cream filling and fondant and gumpaste decor. The 'table' is white vanilla cake with chocolate ganache filling. The cake was inspired by helipops and sugarsugargal, thanks girls. These are a lot harder to do than they look. I almost couldn't get the spout to stick to the cakes, had to use straw dowels. The teapot was made using a Pyrex mixing bowl and a 6 inch round and the bottom cake is a 12 inch square.

Froggy Cake
frog cake made from wilton 3D bear pan. I only had the two pieces of this pan that I bought that day from someone who lived 1/2 hour away and when I get there to pick it up, most of the pieces are missing. The lady gave it to me for nothing since I drove all that way for nothing. Anyway, my DH put copper wire around it and I 'baked' a seal around the edge using a flour and water mix. It was the most hillbilly pan you ever saw when it was put together and while it was baking I could see the batter pouring out of it and baking around it! I wanted to cry because the cake was due that day and I didn't know a better way to make a frog. Half the frog came out and I used that anyway and I think it looked ok. This was a first birthday cake for a little boy and the mom loved it when she saw it. It is all fondant and IMBC under fondant. THe cattails are spaghetti strings with fondant tails . I would have added more colour now looking at it but it was a great deal of work. TFL and sorry for the long story!

Confirmation Cupcakes
vanilla cupcakes with vanilla filling and buttercream under fondant topper. Client wanted a silver and gold theme for her son's confirmation. I did half with white fondant brused with pearl dust and silver dragees and the other half with ivory fondant topper brushed with gold dust and gold dragees. I tried to get the diamond look by using the opposite side of a knife. Not exactly the effect I wanted but the client loved them.

St Patrick's Day Theme Cake
My first stacked cake! Thanks Thecasualkitchen for your instructions, it worked like a tee! I made this for a bridal shower today, the bride is Irish so her friends liked the idea.

Anyway, I would love some feedback on this, you all are the best judges out there. Would love to hear your comments, good and bad. TFL!

Oh yah, these are cream filled with the cream filled recipe from CC, very delish.

High Heel Shoe
Shoe made from template from the homepage of CC by boonenati. Homemade black mmf, with mmf and silver dragee flower. I was hoping I could get the fondant as black as possible, and of course all I had to do was look through CC and sure enough there was information on more than one way to achieve it. This site is a wealth of information. I love it!

Mini Birthday Cake
4 inch Kakeladi WASC with Duncan Hines frosting ( I admit, I love the stuff!), and covered in kit kats and smarties. Whoever thought of this was brilliant as I got the idea off of CC and have seen quite a few versions of it. I couldn't believe my luck that they now have mini kit kat bars. I thought I would have to cut the regular size one to fit my mini cake. TFL!

I Scream At Buttercream
Kakeladi WASC. Practice cakes to try decorating only with buttercream although the flowers are fondant. I don't know if fondant is harder than buttercream, but you need real good hand control to do buttercream. Yes, my cakeboards are lame, I'm going to give these to friends, hope they like them.
