Blue Kirby
My son wanted a blue Kirby for his bday. I tried to copy the design as best I could but it was very difficult to get the side triangles to stay up, which is why you see toothpicks. My time was limited but he loved the end result and that's all that mattered. Top helmet design is all styrofoam covered in GP. TFL

Lady Bugs And Dragonflies
This was a buttercream cake with a fondant overlay. My BC was too thin so it didn't stay on too nicely, but it managed to make it to the shower in one piece. Unfortunately, the dragonflies did not. It was my first attempt at making them so I obviously did something wrong. But the mother-to-be liked it so that was good. The design was taken from the baby's room. TFL

My First Jeep
I made my first batch of gumpaste for this jeep and I think it was too dry because before i could mold it onto the styrofoam it had dried on me and looked wrinkled. Oh well, this was only a trial run. I'll be making a groom's cake of this same jeep in larger scale and won't be using this gumpaste for sure. But I did have fun with all the details. Any suggestions for a better gumpaste recipe are much appreciated.

Just Because...
This is for a friend of mine that had a bad experience with ugly tasting fondant. I haven't made homemade fondant myself yet. I'm a little scared to try, but I love the satin ice brand. We both play an online game and this is his favorite kit so I thought I'd try my hand at making it. TFL
