Princess Mikenna's Castle
This was my Daughter's 4th Birthday Cake. She saw the picture of this in the Wilton Year Book and HAD to have it! Let me tell you it was a 'Royal' pain in the behind to make! I had 4 tower casualties on the way to the party! I'm glad I brought my fixer kit! But overall I was happy with the turn out! The Bottom tier is Death By Chocolate cake with Twinkie Filling the top tier is Strawberry WASC with strawberry n' cream filling. TFL

Anniversary Cheesecake
I made this yesterday for my husband and I 's Anniversary. I ma not to pleased with the 'neatness' of the piping but it was my first working with melted chocolate so I thought it would be good to try it out on the man who would love it no matter what it looked like! It's scratch no bake cheesecake, (way to hot for the oven right now!) With mint-chocolate and Skor. Even though I'm not happy at the result.....it tasted darn good!!! TFL!

Faith
This was a cake I did for someone who had completed the 28 day program for Alcohol Rehab. He has a favorite tea set that is black and red with the black bamboo so the colour scheme was taken from that. Everything was free hand, which I obviously need to practice! The design on the side of the cake is the design found on the tea cups. It's the Chinese character for Faith. The script reads 'Faith...In yourself, In others, In God. The Bamboo is all gum paste. The cake is WASC usuing coconut milk instead of water, with the red buttercream, and the piping is done with RI. Since I know the person who is now on his way to bright future of sobriety, this cake had some special meaning for me...it's not perfect I still need some practice, but I tried so hard to make it great!

Wedding_Cake2.jpg
This was my first cake. My very own wedding cake! A white cake with rolled fondant. I sugar coated fresh Orchids, Roses, and Ivy. I knew exactly what I wanted for my cake, not over done with fresh flowers, and clean and pretty....so I wasn't going to pay someone to screw it up! After this cake (I knew nothing about cake decorating and kinda winged it) I was so impressed at how it turned out I knew I had do this more!
