Cat And Dog Bride And Groom!
This was so much fun to make.... the dog is based on aine2's dog tutorial on youtube... with a couple of additions of my own... and I just wung it for the cat... the characters are definitely always my favorite part of a cake to make. The cake is dusted with pearl dust and the ribbon is real. TFL!

Baby Shower Cupcakes!
I did these for my cousin a while ago who had a baby boy. I used Aine2's tutorials to do the bears. I am so thankful that she is so willing to share with all of us! I had so much fun making this! I filled the cupcakes with a cream filling since there is hardly any icing on top. Thanks for looking!

Farm Birthday Cake
I had so much trouble with this cake. It was my first time making and working with gumpaste... and it did not turn out well... it was soooo sticky and wouldn't hold it's shape very well. But, it was still lot's of fun and it was a learning experience. It also didn't help that we were super busy moving... but I just had to do it because it was for my nephew and he was asking for me to make the cake already before Christmas. Who can resist that right? :)

Striped Wedding Cake
I made this wedding cake at Christmastime for my friends wedding. I was 3 months pregnant at the time and was struggling with morning sickness. EVERYTHING went wrong with this cake.... most of the stores were out of what I needed (it being Christmas and all) so I had to do a bit of improvising... so I wasn't too happy about how it turned out. And, to top it all off we had to drive and hour and a half to drop it off... and I was throwing up on the way.... so we quickly stacked it, and then had to leave. :(

Farewell Cake
This isn't a very good pic. but this is a farewell cake that I made for one of our friends that is moving away. This was my second time making fondant figures.... they were so much fun! Thanks so much to Liis for all her tutorials! I feel that I was able to make them my own and add some character to them. Fun! Fun! I will post a closeup of the figures so you can see them better! Thanks for looking!

Strawberry Chocolate Cake!
I really enjoyed doing this cake. I made one 10" strawberry cake and one 10" chocolate cake and then I sliced them each in half and layered them strawberry, choc, str, choc! I covered it with cream cheese icing and drizzled it with ganache. At first my ganache was too runny so I heated it up to a boil again and just poured it over more chocolate. It worked great! At first I thought it would burn because of the previous chocolate but it didn't! The deco's on top are just melted chocolate that I drizzled!

Lightning Mcqueen And Mater
This was my very first Cupcake Cake! I really enjoyed doing it. I iced it with Cream cheese icing and the cars are out of FBCT. I tried to do the flag in FBCT too but it fell apart when I tried to put it on so I had to fix it by hand. I think that cupcake cakes are just too cute! Perfect for kids!

My Second Wedding Cake!
This one was done the day after my first one, after a 9 hour trip to my parents! Whew... I did this one as a gift for my friend. She went out on a limb letting me do her cake, because I had no experience. Practicing for this cake is what really fueled my passion and got me going on cakes! :) Thanks to cakesbyjess for the inspiration and help! And, thanks to everyone else who offered advise throughout the whole process!

My First Wedding Cake!
I prayed my way through this cake! Not only because it was my first but also because I had to transport it just like you see it... and it had to stand there for about 3 days before the wedding! Talk about stressful! But, all went well, it never collapsed or anything. Thank God for that! :) It was fun to do this cake though and it was definitely a great experience. That same week I had my second wedding cake to do... ha ha what a start. :)

Mother's Day Cupcakes
These cupcakes were a blast to make! The ones with a blue flower have blueberry pie filling and cream cheese in them and the ones with a burgundy flower have cherry pie filling and cream cheese in them. They are covered in ganache, the lettering is RI, and the flowers are MMF. Thanks for looking!

First Valentines Cake
I made this cake on Valentines Day for some ladies in long term care so that they could watch me make it. I in NO way expect to win, because this was a winging it kind of cake... but it will be the only one that I make so I thought it would be fun to enter it. :) Thanks for looking. ;)
