Relay For Life Bake Sale Cake
2 layer 9" dark choc fudge cake. i filled it with cherry pie filling edged with choc icing to keep it from oozing. (thanx to forum relies for that tip!). i heated my icing up slightly to make it into a glaze and poured it over the top. i piped on choc drop flowers and decorated with additional cherries.

First 3D Cake
My fiance is into minitrucks and is in the process of making his truck into one so I thought that this would be a perfect cake for him. The cake is a chocolate sheet cake topped with a loaf cake for the truck cab. I carved the windshield and hood slope off of the loaf cake. I used chocolate canned icing for the outside. I piped white icing for the windows and tail lights. Used red icing for the back up lights. I used the actual design for his truck on the back end using the colored piping icing.

Coleman Grill
My fiance wanted to cook out for his birthday this year so I made him a coleman grill cake. The cake is a devil's food chocolate box cake with chocolate fudge in between the layers and on the sides. the "charcoal" is mini marshmallows coated in cocoa powder and sprinkled with powdered sugar for the coal look. I used grey piping icing for the grates. The patties were made with a muffin top baking pan, then i just used oranged bc for the cheese letting it drip a little down the sides to look melted.

Rice Crispies Gone Wrong
my 2 year old loves phones so i decided to make her a cell phone for her birthday. i saw a picture on a cake site, thought it looked easy enough, and made it. only bad idea was using sugar cookie icing to coat the rice crispy phones. the cereal absorbed the moisture from the icing and fell apart. as long as no one moved them, they were fine, but tasted so nasty!
