Pa Nic 64
My first full blown buttercream cake. Thanks to Sugar Shack's dvd it looks almost presentable. I am so impressed with my first try - still need to practice. Caramal cake with Hazelnut Fudge filling. All accets are buttercream. I also tried some pinecones for the first time but the family all thought they were very ugly brown roses (duh!)

Klein Feã«Tjie - Marshmallow Versiersuiker
My "practice cake" - first try on marshmallow icing (a basic meringue with melted marshmallow added). It tasted wonderful and for extra flavour I added a drop of rose water. Bought new cutters and HAD TO practice the gerbera daisy (life size), tiny fairy (if she could stand the size of my thumb) and my new flower shape cake tin.

Welkom In Gauteng
NFSC decorated with MMF made with a hint of rosewater flavouring. Thank to the NFSC and MMF recipes I got from CC these cookies were a total hit. This is also my first cookie bouquet. Made for my DD and step mom on their arrival in Gauteng from the Free State (South Africa). I'm so glad they are so close to us now - only an hour's drive for a visit.

Bingo
Chocolate cake with chocolate-coffee BC filling. Covered with fondant. Decorations are gumpaste. All edible except the straw and the wires. Made this for my boss' judo club fund raising - they held a Bingo night (quite obviously). Thank you to all those Bingo cakes who inspired this on. It look to me like candy - I LOVE CANDY.

Ertjies Se Troukoek
An almost exact copy of a cake my friend saw on CC. Thank you to the person who inspired this cake - couldn't find the cake (and creator thereof) on CC (due to lack of time). The bottom 6 are rich fruit cakes (give aways). The top 3 were choc cake with kahlua choc filling. I convinced my friend to go with my gumpaste flowers instead of fresh flowers. All fondant and gumpaste accents. (I also did ALL the flowers for her wedding - worked very hard on all of this) but had LOTS OF FUN!

Tink Vir Petronellie
Tinkerbel cake made for my friend's little 2 year old. Tink is all gumpaste. Cupcakes were provided by my friend (special baked by her for her family low GI etc) covered with vanilla BC and strawberry flavoured BC. BC roses and dragees. My first cupcake cake - loved doing this - was fun and easy! (Still needs practice with piping though). :)

Ilse Word 40
Made this cake for my dear friend's 40th. She loves cows and when she was still single her kitchen was full of "cow"-things. Her other passion is chocolate. The cake is a cafe latte mousse layer on top of a chocolate mousse layer on top of a chocolate cake layer. She really liked the cake (and the little cow)! Was inspired by a little cow I saw on this website. Thanks so much for all your great ideas!

Ma Liz Word 60
This cake was made for my step mother who turned 60. I had so much fun doing this cake. Butterscotch cake with fondant icing. Board covered with paper. The cup is all gumpaste - no cake. The purse is decorated with dangrees and a silver chocolate "Smartie". Card, flower on hat and bow are all gumpaste.
