Princess Castle
Ok...so this is not an original design...It is the Wilton Castle cake...The one that is on the box that the castle kits comes in...I made this for my daughters 5th Birthday as a surprise, and it was a HUGE hit! She was a princess for her birthday, so it fit right in. I did do the flowers differently...Wilton calls for them to be made from Fondant, and I just piped them on with a start tip I think...I am very proud of how this turned out, for it is definitely no easy cake to make!

Strawberry Shortcake
Though there is nothing fancy about the decoration of this cake, the real surprise comes in the type of cake I made it...Since it was Strawberry Shortcake, I wanted a cake to actually be Strawberry Shortcake...so I used a boxed Butter Pecan cake, make a layer cake, and in the middle put whipped cream and fresh strawberries...and then I made a strawberry sauce from fresh strawberries and sugar (and a little water) to pour over the slices...Lemme Tell ya...YUM!!!

Baby John Deere Tractor
This is a "childish" version of a John Deere Tractor that I made for a friends baby's 1st birthday. After making a Thomas Cake, I figured I could use the basic idea to make this...and it came out even better than expected! I Absolutely love this cake and have had several people request it...though I have yet to actually make another one...And NO, I did not recieve money for this so it is not a copyright infringement!
