Lex's Hs Graduation Cake
Cake for my cousin's HS graduation. She loooooves black and pink so I went with that instead of her school colors (which are green and gold, yucky Packers colors. BLEH!). I made little replicas of the various things she did in school including Hellenic Society, Football trainer, Choir, Musicals, voted "Most School Spirit" and Track. All accents fondant.

Flowers For Dbkp
The cake I made for my last day at my job today before I go off to work at an actual cake shop!! All roses are fondant. The cake is a WVSC (White Vanilla Sour Cream) cake with chocolate ganache (first time making it and it turned out great! I'm going to try it under fondant next!) and there are Kit Kats going around the outside. *Edited to say that this cake comes from the many other beautiful cakes like this made by CC'ers before me! I've been wanting to try it for some time!

Best Wishes, Susan & Cory!
Bottom tier is WASC with PB cup buttercream filling and top tier is Chocolate WASC with plain buttercream. All accents are fondant. Inspired by a cake by jaklotz1 (yours was way nicer!). The darn bow gave me quite a bit of trouble. Oh well, learned for next time, I suppose! Either way, the bride to be loved it!

Shades Of Blue
I made this 6" cake and cupcakes (50 of them!) for a friend who was taking them to a baby shower for someone she works with. The cake was WASC with chocolate buttercream and the cupcakes are dark chocolate with vanilla and chocolate buttercream and white with vanilla and chocolate buttercream. All of the accents fondant and gumpaste. The writing on the circles is royal icing. I am really enjoying making figures and hope to continue getting better! : )

Kristen's Baby Shower!
This was for a good friend's baby shower this past weekend. It made the trip from KY to northern IN! The bottom layer is WASC with cookies and cream filling, the middle is Dark Chocolate WASC with cookies and cream and the top is an All-Occasion Downy Yellow cake with plain buttercream. Accents are all fondant and gumpaste. The cake was made to match the bedding they have from the Land of Nod called "Womb with a View." (I know, I like the name, too! haha!). The figures on top were inspired by Pink Cake Box's Pregnant Mom toppers! I LOVE their stuff!

Mom's Purse Cake
This is a birthday cake for my mom. It is Chocolate WASC with cookies and cream filling. All accents are fondant. She loves purple and she loves dolphins (hence the random dolphin on the side of the cake. LoL). She also drives a Toyota mini-van and her name is Babette. I wanted to add some more things spilling out of the purse, but I didn't have a cake board big enough : ( Oh well! My friend is delivering it to her at work tomorrow and I am so excited for her to get it!

The bottom tier is WASC w/cookies and cream buttercream, middle tier is Chocolate WASC w/cookies and cream buttercream, and the top tier is yellow w/chocolate buttercream. All the accents are fondant or fondant/gumpaste mixes. This was a very fun cake to make and I was very excited about how it turned out : )

A Steaming Cup Of... Cake?
Hot chocolate "mug" cake. Got the idea from many, many wonderful creations from my fellow CC'ers : ) It's the AMAZING chocolate WASC cake with plain buttercream filling. The cake is covered in fondant and the snowman are made of fondant, as well. The snowflakes and the names (all of my family and yes, it goes all the way around the cake. LoL) are piped in royal icing. The marshmallows and candy cane are real.

Not So Jive Turkey
Thankgiving cake made for Thanksgiving with the in-laws. In fact, we're leaving for PA in the morning. Woot woot. Anywho, it's the Amazing Chocolate WASC cake from Cakepro and it turned out quite yummy! The accents are fondant, Mr. Turkey is a rice krispy treat covered in fondant and the white dots on the stripes are royal icing . I tried to do something a little different this time so I hope everyone likes it! Happy Thanksgiving! : )

Wall Street Journal And Halloween!
My father-in-law gets up every morning around 4am and reads the Wall Street Journal cover to cover. His birthday also falls on October 25th, so I combined the WSJ cookies with the Halloween cookies to make the boquet! He really liked them! It was the NFSC recipe with Antonia74's RI.

Thuuuuuuundercats!
My 25-year-old, yes, 25-year-old cousin wanted a Thundercats cake for his birthday, so voila! That's what he got. LoL. He went crazy when I showed it to him and said that he wanted to get a display case for it. Haha. It was chocolate cake with plain buttercream, at the birthday boys' request.

Lovebirds!
Bridal shower cake for a co-worker. Their invitations had birds on them, so I went with that and the shower we are having at work is a recipe shower so that's why I had the recipe and utensils. The bottom layer is chocolate cake with a butterfinger buttercream and the top layer is yellow with chocolate buttercream.
