Buttercream icing with fondant letter and figures.
I was asked to make this as a grooms cake. I looked through many pictures on here to get ideas and figure out how to do it. I believe this was my hardest one and I never did figure out how to get the floating shelf. My side bars kept breaking. I ended up putting a chunk of white almond bark inbetween the layers and hid it with tackle stuff.
Made with all fondant with exception of the cowboy hat rim. It is 50/50 fondant - gumpaste.
This is made with all fondant. Had a mishap with those circle things on top and at last minute had to cover wire with fondant. This first picture is my finished cakes and my 13 year old decided it was missing items so the other added pictures she has added the missing Harry Potter "stuff"
Did a google search for zebra stripe baby cake and used a few different cakes pics to get this one. It is all fondant.
This was my first attempt doing a 3d standing cake and it will probably be my last. I had a hard time getting the fondant to cover it.
Ball made using ball pan and covered in fondant. Shoe is made out of rice crispie treats. Shirt and pendant made with fondant. Olympic rinds did not make it through delivery. The gumpaste was to small and apparently brittle and well it was a lesson learned.
This is my tool box cake. I was inspired by a few of you.
Helmet made using round cake pans and cut to shape. Face mask made with gumpaste.

This is my second attempt at a wedding cake. I was so nervous and stressed out at the thought at just making a wedding cake. The bride gave me a picture and said this is what I wanted. It is all buttercream with the exception of of fondant swags and bows. I had a terrible time getting the icing perfectly smooth and had to changed her picture to do scroll work to try hide some flaws. Once again I turned to this website to see how everyone else did scroll work and it also helped with making of the bows.
I made this cake for my daughters birthday. She wanted it big with monkeys. The palm trees gave me a bit of trouble but next time I should know what I am doing.
This was my first attempt at a wedding cake. The bride wanted little girls on the side of the cake and I tried and tried and could not make them look decent so I decided to make a little cake with silloutes. I was so nervous doing a wedding cake that I probably will not attempt to do one again.
This is my version of the sewing basket. I can only hope to one day make mine as nice as the other ladies who have posted pictures of theirs.
