Love In Bloom

Took me forever to get all these stupid flowers on there! It was my first time trying marshmallow fondant, and I didn't like the way it looked rolled, so at the last minutes I decided to do a field of blossoms... Then half way through I got frustrated with the look at came up with the heart. Felt much better after that. Cake was for a "Trash the Dress" photo shoot.

Aubrey's 1St Birthday

Was supposed to be a pillow cake, but the square cake I'd baked had to be used for a friend's cake at the last minute, so I had to use circles instead. My first attempt and I learned a lot. RI tiara was fun once I got the hang of it (and after I broke a few). Normally I only work on dummies, so it's interesting what a difference it is working on actual cake.

Aubrey's Tiara

My first royal icing tiara. Made it for my princess' first birthday (her name is Aubrey, hence the "A" in the middle). :) Modified from a template I found here by tabicat21 (thank you very much!!).

No Cake Is An Island...

Palm trees are RI piped onto kebab skewers. I originally made 4 and picked the best 2 (the first I did looked like it belonged in a Dr. Seuss book). Island is a digestive cookie with a little brown sugar and the ocean blue mousseline buttercream with white occasionally spattered in. Think it turned out pretty well for a last minute idea.

Cattleya Orchid

This is my first try using instructions from Alan Dunn's Wedding Cake Decorator's Bible (excellent book for those just starting out). Could have been better, but could have been MUCH worse. :) Camera seemed to wash the colours out a bit.

First Rose Attempt

First time I've tried a gumpaste flower. Just as I finished, the wire pulled out of the cone (guess I should've dried the cone a little longer, I was just anxious to get started...).
