Monkey Cake
I made this cake for a friend. The theme was mod monkey. I made a two tier cake...9" and 6", a smashcake and cupcakes. The cake was WASC with strawberry jam. Loved the jam!!! This was really fun to make. I usually take my own pics but didn't have time, so this was taken with an iphone. The second pic was at the party and didn't turn out well either. The birthday girl ate the nose from the smashcake before we were able to get a picture. Sure wish the pics were better because I was really happy with how this turned out.

Teal Butterfly Cake
I got the idea for this cake from a web site that I picked up with a google search. It was butterflysweets.com I love all of her cakes. I did this one for my daughter's mother in law's birthday. It was WASC, covered with butter cream then fondant, with jam filling. Taste AMAZING! Thanks to all CC friends for sharing their wonderful recipes and decorating ideas!

Beach Cake
This is a french vanilla cake covered with butter cream with chocolate ganache filling. The sea shells are real. (That's what they requested.) The sand is raw sugar. Driftwood is made of 50/50 gumpaste/fondant. The little stick things are carrot tops! haha! They were too green so I painted them with food coloring gel and lemon extract. This was fun to make!

Green & Blue Birthday Cake
This was my daughter's boyfriend's birthday cake that I made in just a few hours. Wow...I'm tired after rushing through this one! The LUKE was gumpaste. The cake was vanilla covered in butter cream then covered in fondant. The top tier was multi-colored...rainbow cake. I wish I had a picture of it. It really looked cool! I hope that someone took a picture of after it was cut. The cake was covered with MMF with MMF accents. Luke loved it!

First Birthday Cake With Smash Cake
I made this cake for a friend. Her little girl is one year old. She wanted a smash cake to match the larger cake. The big cake is a 10' two layer with MMF. The bow and flowers are MMF. The smash cake is buttercreme with MMF bow and flowers. I just thought that covering the smash cake with MMF would not result in the desired mess. LOL! It was supposed to be hot pink and lime green. I'm happy with the pink, but the green turned out to be a little more green and a little less lime. It started okay, but got darker later. I'll remember that next time.
