Made a bouquet at local store where I learned how to make gumpaste flowers. Been a long time to do that, but better late than never. Has lilies, hydrangeas, orchids, daisies, carnations.
Made these when I took a class at a local cake decorating store. A lot of fun... Been a while since I have taken the class, so it's a little late in my posting this. Enjoy!
Chocolate peep cake with buttercream, covered with MMF and surrounded by little peeps.
made this cake for my uncle for his 60th birthday. the inside is "neapolitan" (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry) filled and covered in buttercream. Used gumpaste to make the books and apple. Black satin ice fondant mixed with tylose powder to make the chalkboard.
For a music fest/party. Band playing called The Abberlines (inspector abberline from the Jack the Ripper case). Cake made to look like inspector Abberline's hat (smoothed buttercream airbrushed) with the London skyline wrapped around it in black satin ice fondant. A "bloodied" gumpaste knife and "torn" piece of fabric on top complete with distressed finger markings. Chocolate cake with chocolate and raspberry filling.
Yellow cake with raspberry filling. Buttercream crumb coat covered in light blue homemade MMF with chocolate decorations.
Made this for my daughter's first birthday. Top tier is chocolate, bottom is yellow/vanilla. Both tiers filled with strawberry, chocolate, strawberry layers. Covered in homemade MMF. Used my airbrush on all colors (first time!). Made hibiscus out of gumpaste as well as the torch and the tiki man. Put little LED lights behind the eyes of the tiki man.
This was for a 4th bday. Bottom layer is yellow cake with chocolate fillng (my absolute favorite!). The top layer and the cylinder towers are rice crispy treats. The blue spires are ice cream cones filled with more rice crisy treats. Everything is covered with marshmallow fondant and pearl dust. The flags are gumpaste with thin wire wrapped around so they rested on top of the spires.
Heart cake with royal icing roses and dove chocolate hearts around the edge. =9
I made this using a small metal mixing bowl. It's a yellow cake with buttercream filling and marshmallow fondant with gumpaste hydrangeas. I even did a wash of gold lusterdust to give it a subtle sparkle.
Made this 6" round devil's food cake with buttercream covered with mini marshmallows cut in half diagonally for the rice. "Salmon, imitation crab/cucumber and ginger" made with MMF. "Wasabi" made with MMF + colored confectioner sugar. Chopsticks are real, wish they were chocolate though (Mmmmm). I made this for my brother-in-law's 18th bday which falls on 12/31 and he loves sushi! =D
I made this cake for a triple bday over the weekend. It's a yellow cake with chocolate filling, thick yummy buttercream crumb coat with fondant. Gumpaste hand painted leaves with bronze and gold pearl dust. Close up view

Gumpaste hand painted leaves with bronze and gold pearl dust. edit: the branches are floral wire with brown fondant and a little bit of bronze pearl dust to tie in the leaves and painted "wind"
For a sweet sixteen with an "awards" theme. It is roughly 10"x10"x10", yellow cake with chocolate bavarian cream filling (so yummy). Fondant, fondant, fondant! Made film strips over the weekend to allow drying time. Rolled white fondant out on a large piece of plastic tablecloth and unrolled it onto the cake. So much fun to make!!! =D
made red velvet cupcakes for the first time ever. I didn't know what to expect. I made them from scratch as well as the cream cheese frosting to top it off. They came out so moist and delicious!
I love pink and brown!
I made this for my hubby's grandfather's 89th bday. It was on a whim. My husband says, "it'd be neat if you could make a golf cake for my grandpa" and seeing how he still plays golf and I was up to the challenge, I made it! Complete with a sand trap and water hazard =) Oh, and the cake is a yellow cake with chocolate bavarian filling, various green fondant layers, the sand is "sugar in the raw" and the water hazard is green colored glucose. The golf balls around the cake are solid white chocolate.
Made this cake for fun. I used (loosely) a design from a gift bag I had laying around. This was my first successful attempt at making cake from scratch. I'm so excited how it came out!
I made this cake for my baby shower. Crazy I know with everything else going on before the baby arrived, but I had so much fun making it. The fondant is all flavored, pink = strawberry, brown = chocolate hazlenut, ivory = amaretto. The bottom layer is chocolate with strawberry filling, the top layer is yellow with chocolate pudding filling. The sneakers are real, if I had time I would have totally attempted to make those out of fondant too. I found a great piece of fabric to use for the base.
