Mocha cake with coffee buttercream, cookie crumble "ground beef". Fondant lettuce and cheese, fondant fry box, sugar cookie fries. :)
Half of these were vanilla cake, the other half, angel food. They were all filled with strawberry preserves (to keep with the red and white) and topped with vanilla buttercream. My wonderful hubby did the sprinkles, and did a very good job I might add! Chocolate maple leafs. :)
Customer wanted brown, old looking books with gold writing and gold pages to match her daughters grad dress. She wanted her daughters favorite book titles on the spine, a gold bookworm with glasses "somewhere on the cake" and simply Grad 2009 on top. Chocolate fudge cake with cream cheese filling, vanilla buttercream and chocolate MMF.Pages are buttercream, worm is MMF, glasses are chocolate. :) TFL!
This was done to match the schools colors. It was a pre-prom get together. Anyways, they asked for a LOT of the school colors (navy and red) but wanted the cupcake icing white, so this is what I came up with. The cupcakes are topped with the school logo (RR) done in chocolate and edible glitter. (This was for a girl and her friends) I saw the cupcake stand on cakejournal, but changed it up a little. Rather than gluing everything together, we poked a hole through the exact middle of every piece and slid everything onto a thick dowel. This made the stand really solid, but able to take apart to customize and rent. :) Cupcakes were: Top 2 tiers: Carrot Cake with baked cream cheese filling, Next tier: Espresso Cake, Bottom Tier: Strawberry cupcakes with preserves fillings. TFL!!!
Unfortunately it was raining and the trips to and from thecar left this cake super shiny and the writing smeared. lol! Oh well, my husband LOVED it. Cookies n Cream cake with Cookies n Cream filling. All MMF.t
LOVE THESE. My customer requested 4 dozen "fish" cake pops for her sons wedding. They had a fishing theme, blue and green. I was SO worried they would be incredibly tacky. I think they turned out great! 1/2 chocolate, 1/2 vanilla.
Other than my own of course.. lol, the bride designed this cake 100%. She literally wanted 1 tall 6" with a blue border. This is maple buttercream, vanilla cake and vanilla custard filling. Hubby told me it looked like a top hat. :*( lol..
I wasn't very happy with this cake. The customer wanted yellow on yellow marble, and blue on blue marble. When I twisted them together, the colors just melded into one. :( My filling is bulging, Elmo didn't turn out the way I wanted him too.. Hmm. Either way, I suppose it's not THAT bad. Top tier was strawberry, bottom was banana. Elmo is RKT and buttercream, the rest is MMF. The whole thing was covered in lustre dust but it's hard to see. TFL!
This cake was fun to do as it was a lot of firsts for me. My first fondant shoe, (no template or special drying thing.. I feel like investing though after this!) my first book, first hat. It was supposed to be 2 books and the hat, but the customer called last minute and changed her servings by HALF. I was so mad... I did it anyways and let my hubby eat the other book. LOL! The book was Strawberries and Cream cake, the hat was Chocolate Fudge. All vanilla buttercream and vanilla MMF.
This was a replica of the bride-to-bes actual dress for her bridal shower. It came out quite close! I had a great time doing this cake and my customer (future MIL of bride) actually cried! lol.. It was double chocolate fudge cake with caramel, vanilla buttercream and almond MMF. TFL!! :) This was my first double order, like I had another order for the same day. So exciting!
This was a vanilla eggless cake carved from a 9x13. I freehand piped everything and was very happy with the result. It's all buttercream excluding the banner, flowers and butterfly. The cupcake is super sparkly, I don't know if you can tell from the picture though. :) TFL!
I have a sesame street order coming for a cake and 12 cake pops. She said to do what I want with the cake pops, so I came up with these after my hubby thoughtfully refilled my "Jimmies" stash while I was at work! They are chocolate fudge cake. :D These were just practice, the final ones will look better. :)
First off, thank you 2muchsugar. I saw your French Poodle cake a long time ago and fell in love with it. While trying to come up with ideas for my Moms Mothers Day cake, I kept coming back to your beautiful cake. It inspired my colors and part of the design. Thank you! My Mom is a Disney FREAK! I wanted to do something really feminine and pretty. All the accents are dusted with Disco edible glitter and the white is dusted with champagne lustre dust. This was my first time covering a board in fondant, among other firsts. I had a great time doing it and my Mom LOVED it. The cake was her favorite, Strawberries and Cream with strawberry preserves and vanilla buttercream layers finished off with almond MMF.
My brother requested a Flavor Flav cake for his 19th birthday this year, so that's what he got. LOL! I don't know why. This cake gave me all kinds of problems as you can probably tell but it turned out OK in the end. He loved it and that's all that matters. This was my first time working with RKT. (The horns) The cake is Dark Chocolate Fudge with strawberry preserves and vanilla buttercream layers, finished with MMF and painted with 24K Gold Dust. The horns were RKT dipped in candy melts and rubbed with a spoon to give the "bone look", and then painted. TFL!
These sweet cuppies are my first cupcakes ever! I think I did an OK job! They were strawberry lemonade cake with 2 flavor/2 tone icing swirled on top. The icing was part fresh lemon and part strawberry. They were super yummy and pretty!!! Fondant decorations/dragees. :)
This was a last minute order. She wanted plain plain plain, white cake, white buttercream, Red Sox logo. I made all the decorations by handpiping chocolate (candy melts). I also added a few cake pops for the kids. I couldn't resist a baseball cake pop opportunity!
I saw this cake done by a couple people, I'm so sorry but I forget their names!!! Thank you for the inspiration though! Your cakes inspired this cake as well as similar cake pops!! :) This was a strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream and vanilla fondant. I couldn't find an egg pan anywhere but I happened to have a football pan on hand that I carved into an egg!
This order of pops was full of decorated eggs, chicks, bunnies and hatching eggs. Super cute! :) 1/2 the pops were raspberry lemonade cake and the other 1/2 was rich chocolate fudge cake.
This was a birthday cake for the owner of this building moving company. The truck looks just like his, well.. Pretty close. lol.. It was a rich chocolate fudge cake with sweet maple buttercream, chocolate/vanilla MMF.
Man I do a lot of these! There is a Hello Kitty one in the backround but it didn't turn out great. :/
Yum! Don't remember the flavor, was just practicing!
Done in a blue theme with K's for the birthday boy. I think these were just white cake. Yum, I heart cake pops!
I had a few mugs of these. I love the pink/brown. :) I don't remember what flavor these ones were, I make so many of the darn things!
Thank you thank you thank you Idreamofcakes!!!!!! You are wonderful. Thanks for all the tips and help! These were a HUGE hit. My aunt LOVED them as well as everyone in her office. In fact, I have found a marketing company to make me these exact cups but with MY logo on it instead so I can sell them! :D I recreated Starbucks coffee flavors with cake! The first one is a Caramel Machiatto Cake. This is fluffy espresso cake topped with caramel buttercream and caramel drizzle. Mmmmm. That is all my Aunt orders from Starbucks so she was touched that it was so personal! The second one is Strawberries & Cream Latte Cake. This is moist strawberry cake made with real strawberries and topped with creamy butter-vanilla buttercream and strawberry drizzle. I got to try one of these ones and it was absolutely out of this world! The strawberry drizzle mixed in with the buttercream and moist cake gave it a true strawberry & cream flavor, and consistency. It was truly delicious!
All buttercream except for the chocolate fences and fondant pumpkin patch. Dirt was brown sugar/graham crackers/cocoa powder all mixed up. 1/2 cake & barn were fluffy vanilla cake while the other half of the cake was chocolate fudge. Whole cake was layered with a homemade vanilla custard. Butter vanilla buttercream. Yummm.
I'm so proud! I finally came up with something all my own. To my knowledge, this has not yet been done. :) I love them, they were a surprise for my Mom who is a Disney FREAK! Chocolate fudge cake covered in chocolate candy melts. Bow is red candy melts with with non-pareils sprinkles.
