This is a cake I did for my niece... The bottom is coconut cake with pineapple curd & the blocks are chocolate chip cake with ganache. Everything is covered in fondant & the brown accents are modeling chocolate.
This rose is made out of modeling chocolate & lightly dusted with a pink luster dust. I'm SO happy I took a picture in class... on the way home it melted, then I dropped it! But the great thing about modeling chocolate is that you can ball it up & make a new one!
The monkey is made out of modeling chocolate... he has a rice krispy treat belly & gumpaste/modeling chocolate combo for the lighter accents on his belly, toes & face.
This was a cake I did in class... we had limited time, supplies & materials. We were supposed to practice marbeling, piping, use modeling chocolate, & make a plaque. The trees are modeling chocolate, it's covered in marbled fondant to make a starry night & the 2nd picture shows the pumpkin plaque made of gumpaste...

Here are the flowers from last weekends gumpaste class... Sweet Peas!
This is a hibiscus spray from my gumpaste class a couple of weeks ago!
This is my first real stacked cake that I actually sold! It is a chocolate cake with coffee buttercream & covered in dark chocolate fondant. The roses on top & flowers on the side are gumpaste. The design was piped in buttercream & embellished with silver, pink & yellow dragees...
This cake was for an 8 year old girl that LOVES bugs (especially snails!)! To make them a little softer & girly I used marzipan for the bugs & added a bunch of small gumpaste flowers.
This was a project for my pastry culinary class... We had to make a character from Alice in Wonderland out of marzipan. I chose to do the Mad Hatter at the tea party when bows & removes his top hat there is a fully decorated cake with a lit candle!
Chocolate cupcakes with a buttercream "shell" & tootsie roll feet & head.
I made these in a gumpaste class! They are wild roses & a wild rose bud! We had an amazing teacher, I surely would have never done this good on a first attempt without him!
These are super moist mini chocolate cupcakes with a coffee french buttercream!
These are made from a chai ricotta recipe I'm working on. They were frosted with a poured fondant & after it was hardened I sprayed them using a stencil & pearl & bronze spray & then embellished them with silver & colored dragees.
Lemon Petits Fours - Three layers of vanilla pound cake brushed with a cinnamon simple syrup, filled with lemon curd, coated in a lemon poured fondant, & drizzled with dark chocolate Hello Dollies - Cinnamon-graham cracker crust topped with gooey coconut & semisweet chocolate
These were for my DH's department BBQ at work: Mocha Cupcakes - Chocolate Cakes with a coffee French buttercream Orange Truffles - A creamy chocolate ganache with orange zest covered in a bittersweet chocolate & dusted with cocoa powder
These are 3 very thin layers of a modified vanilla pound cake. Brushed with a cinnamon simple syrup & filled with lemon curd. Cut into small football shapes (small enough for two small bites or one large bite). Covered in a lemon poured fondant & topped with gumpaste flowers. Sorry about the odd angle of the picture - I had boxed them before I remembered to take a picture...
My Mom & I made these last October for my Aunt's 2nd grade class - they loved them! They are a vanilla buttermilk cupcake died hot pink inside. The neck & the head are 1/2 of a marshmallow with a donut hole on top. We crumb coated them, chilled them & then dipped them in neon green warm icing. The eyes are candy coated sunflowers seeds & the antae are black shoestring licorice. We baked them in foil cupcake liners & then placed them in individual plastic containers to look like space ships.
