Graduation Cake
Grad cake for my daughter. The little figure on top is made of gumpaste and fondant. This cake was really cute right after it was finished, but I had to refrigerate it because of its filling. It was 90 degrees and had been raining all day, and of course the cake started to sweat. Oh, the humidity! The colors and the words started to run....Red looks very creepy when it is dripping...

Golf Cart Cake
This cake was for my neighbor's birthday. In order for it to make sense, you need to know the story behind it. She has an equestrian facility and uses her golf cart to feed the horses and get around the property. We call them our mobile sofas, and couldn't live without our beloved golf carts. It's two cakes, one Ghirardelli Chocolate with chocolate hazelnut filling and one yellow cake with white chocolate- strawberry ganache with sliced strawberries. Both fillings were recipes I got from cake central, and they were delish! Everything is made from either fondant or gumpaste, or modeling chocolate. The golf cart has a working headlight, switch is hidden under the birthday cake on the seat.

Dutch Oven With Beef Stew
Made for a guy who teaches classes on how to cook in a dutch oven. 2 - 10" yellow cakes with chocolate buttercream icing, covered in chocolate MMF tinted black. Veggies are all made of fondant, beef chunks are made from tootsie rolls I microwaved and shaped, and the gravy is brown tinted piping gel. The flames are made from sugar and corn syrup that I tinted, nuked, cooled a sec and then pulled to get the shape of a flame.

Skateboard Park Cake
(I am putting this in this section because I couldn't find skateboarding in the drop down catergory box) This was a cake I made for my son's 13th birthday. This is my second cake with fondant. Everything but the little skateboards are edible. I stacked the sheetcakes and cut them into the forms that I wanted, then covered them in icing, and then fondant. To get the wood look for the ramp, I watered down ivory paste and brushed it on for the wood effect. I found grafitti font on the net, printed and cut it out of paper, and then traced it onto white fondan that I painted with colored gels. The cake gave me a hard time when trying to make square edges on the steps, so they aren't as sharp as I would have liked. It was trying, but fun to make and he loved it, so it was worth it. :-)
