This is from a second class I got to ake with Pat Jacoby where we learned fondant and gum past techniques. This is a cake dummy. I couldn't think of anything to write so I just repeated what she did.
I got to take a class with Pat Jacoby where we learned lots of gum paste techniques. This is the cake we made. It's a dummy. So fun!
This cake was such a fail. The border isn't what I wanted to do. The cap isn't what I wanted to do, nor did it turn out, the fondant is marred from hurrying. I only had three hours to work on this cake getting home to leaving for delivery. WASC w/vanilla buttercream under mmf
I took a class w/Peggy Tucker to make the topper and saved it over 1 month to put on a cake so I could keep it. The cake was made for our Harvest Sunday (though I know it's not very harvest-like). Banana cake w/banana cream filling and white choc. ganache under mmf. I made the extra flowers and pieces weeks after the class.
WASC, rainbow, Indydebi buttercream under MMF. Wheels are cupcakes per the instructions. It's not too bad though as always the next one will be better (practice, practice, practice!)
I looked at so many JDT cakes here on CC and used parts of each for this. Thanks so much everyone that posted a JDT for the inspiration! WASC rainbow with indydebi buttercream under MMF. Edible images for logo, wheels are RKT all around. The back hay wagon is the smash cake, hand painted sides to it. I wrote the name on it after the picture was taken.
I'd seen so many of these on CC and had been wanting to make one for a while. This was for our Friend Day (with dinner) at church. 3 layer Durable chocolate cake with Whimsical Bakehouse buttercream under MMF. Daisies and leaves are 50/50 mix with some hand painting.
Cake for 30. Superhero Squad. Hot Cocoa cake with Indydebi buttercream under MMF. Edible images. I wanted the building (bottom tier) to look like it was on fire.
Cake dummy made in a class with Becky Rink. It's called cake tatooing. Becky is wonderful and so talented!
Made in the idea of the huge trunk they throw off the boat in the first show of each season (I suppose they still do this, we've only seen season 1). WASC cake w/vanilla buttercream under MMF. Edible survivor logo, hand painted fondant. 8' square double layer.
Hopefully I will get better at this. My first VW Bug. Some white some chocolate cake. Iced w/buttercream under MMF. Airbrushed pearl. Tag ways 16 on 1 end and name on the other. For a 16 year old.
Another zebra cake w/FOX on it. The young girls seem to love this. Hot Cocoa cake w/chocolate creamy frosting under mmf. 8' and 6' cakes. Board covered in fondant.
Made for a group of senior students who had been reading Macbeth. They finished with a 'feast'. WASC cake w/buttercream under MMF. I looked at so many castle cakes here on CC and they were all inspiration. Thanks everyone. Towers are RKT
I made these for a hamburger cookout at church after Easter services. Vanilla cake w/brownie for meat patty. Fondant cheese and pickles, buttercream mustard and ketchup. Brushed with simple syrup, sprinkled with real sesame seeds.
First time making a candle cake. Easy to do but, very messy. I had a 45 min. drive to take it to it's location (taking it to work for a benefit auction). By the time I got it there (bumpy road I guess) the back candle was leaning severely on the smaller right candle. No time to make another unfortunately. WASC with vanilla buttercream under white chocolate wrapping with sugar glaze for the waxy look. Artificial poinsettia.
This is my first car, but second vehicle. I made this for our Missions Conference at Church which was racing themed. I couldn't get the fondant smooth for some reason. I was very short on time so some things don't look as good as they would. I enjoyed using my EI printer, though. Hot Cocoa cake w/buttercream and homemade MMF. Wheels are RCT. I made them small, but they were still too big after covering with fondant. Was hesitant to post it.
Our church had a Chili Cook-off for 10-10-10 Sunday. I wanted this to look like an old, beat up, well used pot that a mom would love, but really needed to be used to feed the dog in because it was so old. Four layers, almond joy cake w/my own coconut/almond filling, coconut flavored buttercream, MMF. Airbrushed silver, fondant 'beans' in piping gel to look like chili. Gumpaste handles and 'spoon'.
I've been wanting to do a leopard cake for a very long time. I finally got the opportunity! Double layer 8" square w/buttercream between and under MMF, all hand painted. After I took the picture I decided to make the Happy Birthday and name brown to stand out more. Fondant covered board.
This was my first attempt at a lab coat cake. It was hot cocoa cake w/choc. flavored buttercream and MMF. The recipient was turning 21 but didn't want the 'drinking/partying/legal age' type cake. He is in college and does lots of research on rats and flies. His mother wouldn't let me make a straight out rat cake, so I stuck a friendly looking rat in the pocket. I love how the rat turned out.
I was asked to make this cake for a nursing program graduation by one of the graduates. It was last minute and it was done during a very long work week. Lettering didn't come out so good. However, it tasted wonderfully. 9 x 13, white chocolate cheesecake flavored cake. Buttercream flavored w/caramel and MMF. They told me they like black, silver and white, wanted the number 39 on it and that was it.
A friend ordered this cake. They just specified pink zebra. The inside was strawberry, buttercream under MMF. 8 and 6 inch tiers. A lot of fun to do.
A friend brought me a picture of a cake like this from chefbarbie0513 and asked if I could make it. I hope I did it justice! I love how it turned out! 8 and 6 inch tiers. Inside vanilla, rainbow, buttercream under MMF. I made a separate smash cake that looks just like the ladybug on top.
Customer gave me a pix of a cake done in icing. I agreed to do it in fondant. 9, 7 and 6 rounds. Bottom is chocolate and vanilla marble; middle is strawberry; top is banana. Iced in buttercream, covered in MMF. Customer to provide the Strawberry Shortcake topper. I extruded the fondant to come up with the lettering myself.
Last minute cake order. It would've been better with more time. No theme, just a couple of colors and cake flavor. Made to coordinate with another cake, two birthdays celebrated at the same time. Board fondant and edge beads are tie-dyed fondant. Chocolate WASC, sugar shack buttercream, MMF, sprayed with pearl air brush. The airbrush is my new favorite toy. :)
WASC cake with sugar shack buttercream and MMF. This order was for two cakes, no theme, just a couple of colors and cake flavor. Two birthdays celebrated at the same time so I made them coordinate. The fondant on the board is tie-dyed. Last minute order so there is lots of room to improve w/more time. Sprayed pearl with air brush
This is made of 11 reg. sized cup cakes. They're sitting inside those little cups for salad dressing. The cup cakes are stuck on small wooden skewers which are sticking through the cup and into florist foam. Bow is stuck on a skewer and into the foam as well. WASC with buttercream.
