Bichon Frise chocolate cake with Swiss meringue buttercream. This cake was made possible with the help of Elisa Strauss' craftsy class, Sculpted dog cake.
Birthday cake for my friend, Gracie. I used the Moroccan silicone onlay from Marvelous Molds to create an impression in my buttercream (I did not use it to transfer fondant to the buttercream because I ran out of material!!). But it worked beautifully with piped buttercream. The plaques and bow are modeling chocolate.
I've seen so many of these photos on google but I really needed one with a more feminine twist. So I came up with this one pouring into a gumpaste margarita glass. I didn't have any special molds so I just used a real margarita glass as my mold. The can is real but everything else is edible. A big thank you to Jessica Harris and her craftsy class "clean and simple cake design." I couldn't have done the horizontal stripes without it!!
This cake was a product of taking craftsy's class "cake-osauras Rex." My first sculpted 3D cake!! The body is yellow cake. Head, tail, paws, and feet are RKT. Stands appx. 12" tall.
This cake has been my most interesting request yet! For a couple who works at WalMart HQ here in Bentonville, Arkansas. They also just got married and are going back to their home in China...So a going away, wedding shower, glad you work here kind of cake lol...like I said, interesting! Sides of cake read "double happiness" in chinese; A traditional wedding saying :)
Totally copied the idea from WendyVA here on CC. Cake is 9x13 sheet cake cut in half and stacked. Iced in buttercream with some airbrushing details. All lures and tackle are handmade from fondant. The beer bottle is isomalt formed in a bottle mold I made using Chef Dominic Palazzolo's supplies and instructions.
Cake iced in buttercream with hand cut fondant details. Ispired by a bday card invite I saw online
took awhile to do all those ruffles but I love the finished look! If I were to do it again, I'd make the circle cut outs smaller.
For a NASCAR fan
character was cut from fondant. And the clouds are my first attempt at Royal Bakery's cloud tutorial.
done for a friend of mine who's daughter was turning one. She gave me a pic that another cake decorator had done and I did my best to re-create it. :)
Bear is made from fondant/tylose. Her blankie and bottom border are hand painted to match the baby's linens. Iced in buttercream with fondant ruffles and accents. TFL!
I made this cooler cake to look just like my husband's little green cooler he takes with him everywhere. First time making a mold and working with isomalt. This was so much fun, I would definitely do it again!! The only thing that is not edible are the labels :( Bottles and ice are isomalt. Cooler is a peanut butter cake with banana buttercream, covered in milk chocolate ganache.
first time doing a ruffle cake. I love the simplicity of this design! Yet, it looks so pretty.
I made this for my daughter's 8th birthday. She was so sweet to let me have free reign with the design! Gum paste rose, black fondant billows with edible pearls coated in pearl dust. Lid and billows are satin ice fondant, the rest is Michelle Fosters fondant recipe (first time making it, and I love it!). The "bling" is the only part that is not edible but I had to add it for sake of prettiness. lol
I just love doing these cakes and I learn something everytime I do one. The handles were a pain!! They did not want to stay put but only due to poor planning on my part. I wound up using several toothpicks to hold them in place. I would have done the bow differently as well if I had to do it over. Made it a little more floppy instead of so rigid. I still liked the way it turned out :)
I would have never known how to make this flower if it weren't for the very talented Sharon Zambito. I just love her and all her DVD's
Hand cut letter 'B' out of gum paste. Fondant accents. Cake is iced in buttercream.
Husband did not want a typical 40th bday cake...wanted something more fun and bright. Gave me a pic of her mylar balloons so that was my inspiration.
Handmade zebra figurine out of fondant w/ tylose added. Stripes are hand painted. Gum paste and fondant accents. Used my cricut cake machine to cut out the circles of gum paste and zebra icing sheets. Had so much fun doing this cake but it has a sad story...right after the customer picked it up, she had to slam on her brakes to avoid hitting a cop, so naturally the cake went flying...landed upside down on the floorboard of her car!! She didn't even make it 1 mile down the road...I repaired the zebra but the cake was a total loss :( This is why I insist on delivering!
saw this cake here on cc and wanted to do one so bad...can't remember where i saw it to give credit :(
