I make this cake for my birthday (LOL!). It's just a few of my favorite things (which is why I labeled it the same! HA!). The purse and Tiffany's gift box are WASC cake with cookies and cream filling and covered in fondant. The cupcake is sour cream fudge cake with whipped ganache frosting. The iPhone, purse strap and hardware, the cherry and the white bow are all gumpaste. The two chocolates adorning the cake board are just the actual packaged chocolates. I had FUN making this one to celebrate my birthday! *<:o)
This cake I made for my husband. He wanted a Hyundai Genesis car cake for his birthday since I won't buy him the "real thing"! HA!! This was chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling and chocolate buttercream icing. The cake was covered in fondant and most of the accents were also fondant or gum paste. I used silver food coloring/paint to paint the "chrome" on the car and once it was complete I sprayed the cake with butter flavored non-stick spray for the shine. This was my first car cake and in hind-sight, I would do a few things differently, but he was happy with it so that made me happy with the cake. :o) Thanks for looking!
This is a birthday cake I did for a friend's son's 3rd birthday party. I made the train to match the invitation she had. The car behind the engine was for some cupcakes made especially for her son who cannot have traditional cake due to allergies. The cake itself was for the guests. They cupcakes were made by his mom and placed on the car to look like coal. They turned out really cute. The cake is sour cream white cake with cookies and cream filling and buttercream icing. The cake is covered in fondant and airbrushed. All other pieces are made of gum paste. (I pulled an "all-nighter" to get this one done - WHEW!!!) Thanks for taking a look!
This is a castle cake inspired by Debbie Brown for my daughter's 5th birthday. My daughter wanted it to be a "puppy castle" so I added tiny gum paste puppies to the cake. This cake was strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream icing and filling. It is covered in fondant with gum paste accents and luster dust used throughout. Thanks for checking out my cake!
I made these bikini cupcakes on a whim for a little swim party my daughter had. With all the party excitement I completely forgot to take pictures of all of them on the tray and LUCKILY remembered before the last cupcake was eaten. Unfortunately though, it had been sitting outside in the heat for a bit, but I think it still looked kinda cute. Each cupcake had a bottle of sunscreen and a different colored bikini on top. The cupcakes were key lime with key lime buttercream icing. I sprinkled graham crackers on top for "sand". Each bikini and sunscreen bottle are made of gum paste. Thanks for looking!
This was and end-of-season cake for my daughter. The team is Pink Tigers. The cake is sour cream white cake with cookies and cream filling. Buttercream colored pink is smoothed on the tiers with black fondant decor. The pink princess tiger is made of gum paste (my first gum paste animal) and the soccer ball is a styrofoam ball covered in fondant pieces. The stars "shooting" from the soccer ball are gum paste. Luster dust was used in various parts. Thanks so much for looking!
This cake was for a baby shower. I used a "clothesline theme" on the bottom tier inspired by cakes from this site. The top tier was garden flowers upon request. The baby shoes on top were made out of gum paste and using a template found on this site. The cake is sour cream white cake with cookies and cream filling and butter cream icing colored pale yellow and smoothed on each tier. All other decor is gum paste and icing was used for "grass". Luster dust was used throughout. Thanks for taking a look!
This cake is The Hungry Caterpillar eating through an apple. This cake was made for my daughter's teachers for the end of the school year 2009. The cake is sour cream white cake with cookies and cream filling and buttercream icing. The apple is smoothed buttercream and airbrushed red. The stem, leaves, tiny flowers, lady bugs and The Hungry Caterpillar are made of gum paste. The cake board is covered in green fondant and airbrushed green. Thanks for looking!
This cake was for my daughter's third birthday. It is a strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream icing and filling (per my daughter's request - everything PINK! HA!). The ballet shoes, letters, flowers, butterflies and number 3 are all gum paste. Cake is covered in fondant with a fondant "skirt" on the first tier. The cake board is covered in fondant in strips to look like wood slats for a dancer's wooden floor and airbrushed to look like woodgrain. Luster dust was used over the whole cake and decor. Thanks for looking at my cake!
This is a lady bug cake I made for fun to celebrate Spring Break 2009. It is a chocolate cake with chocolate ganache filling and chocolate butter cream icing hand carved into the shape of the lady bug body. All other decorations are fondant and gum paste. Luster dust was used on the "dew drops". Thanks for looking!
