Art And Rainbows
My daughter wanted an art inspired cake...so I took to the internet and saw a poster of a paint brush painting a rainbow that was disappearing into butterflies...and so began the design for this cake. The butterflies are wafer paper, the brush and the palette are gumpaste and the rest is cake.

Would You Like Fries With That?
My daughter wanted a "burger cake" for her birthday this year. But what good is a burger without fries and a shake? The burger and shake are all cake with fondant and modeling chocolate details. The fries are modeling chocolate with cake underneath. I used so many techniques in this cake...air brushing, wafer paper, painting, modeling...it was a blast!! And the best part...I got that look from my daughter...the look that says "I LOVE it!"

Gymnastic Owl
This is my first gravity defying cake. The birthday girl wanted an owl leaping on a gymnast vault. So here it is! The owl is cake and rkt, the wings are modeling chocolate, the vault is cake and rkt. I used PVC to support the entire thing. The birthday girl was thrilled and I had a ton of fun!

This cake was fun! It is a lime pound cake, soaked with a Patron simple syrup, and filled with a salted lime tequila buttercream...it was an edible margarita! The bottle neck and cork are RKT and the cake was covered in fondant. The labels are hand drawn on rice paper with edible markers

Flower Fairy Cupcakes
So proud of this project...I made 24 cupcake flower fairies and a small cake for the birthday girl. All cupcakes are chocolate cake filled with cookie dough filling. The fairies are made from gumpaste and fondant, and the wings are rice paper. Each fairy is different and I wanted them to look like flowers. I just wish the pic turned out better to see the details...This project took hours, but the end results were worth it...the girls went wild!
