Berries In A Basket
I made this for the Poteet Strawberry Festival in Texas last weekend. The cake is strawberry with strawberry buttercream filling. The basket weave is chocolate buttercream. Half the strawberries are fondant and the other half are real. The blueberries are fondant also. I won a blue ribbon in my category and a Grand Champion Ribbon for all the adult categories. I had a handle for the basket, but humidity hit and the handle crumbled.

Piano Cake
I baked a 10 inch square cake and then carved. The fondant is MMF that I pieced together to cover the entire cake. The stand it's on my husband made from plywood and the bench is also wood. The lid is a piece of fondant that I placed on top of a piece of black painted cardboard. The lid is supported by the one dowel rod in the picture.

Log Cabin Cake
I made this for my father-in-law for his bday. He plans on building a cabin soon and the land he purchased has wild hogs and deer, so that should explain the cake a little more. It's chocolate buttercream on the cake, RK log cabin, fondant animals, and roayl icing trees. The hunter was store bought...I couldn't pass him up when I noticed the gun had exploded on the end.

Tiffany Box
I'm taking wilton classes and we were suppose to make a square cake with a ribbon. I usually don't like what they show in the book, so I tried to do my own thing. I colored the fondant with teal wilton coloring. It was my 1st time covering a square cake...still need to work on that. I really wanted to write tiffany & co on the box, but I was to scared I would mess up the whole cake.
