Fun Topsy Turvy
For a 30th Birthday...My 1st time doing topsy turvy!! Theme was Red, Black and Silver...but it looks white in the picture due to my 1 yr. old taking all my powders and hiding them, dont you love kids! So I have to mix a little black with some kind of shimmering dusting powder. And due to a heavy rain, its been really humid and hot so I have problems with the cake sweating, is it worst for an airbrushed cake? I felt like the color seems to be dripping off!!!!

This was a birthday cake for 2 girls...this cake was not finish when I took the picture, but didnt have time to take one of finish product. This cake was made according to the customer's request. I wish I was given the chance to add more little details to make it more a birthday cake than a wedding cake. TFL

Teddy Bear - New York Cheesecake
1-27-2010 - this was for my friend's fiance's belated birthday - It's New York Cheesecake topped with Ghirardelli 60%-cacao chocolate ganache & fresh sliced strawberries around the bottom. The topper is separated with some parchment paper so they can keep the topper. Needed more time to work on it though.

Dragon Figure
12-31-2009 - Dragon Cake Topper - I named her Feyoria, my little pet dragon, hehehe. It was a gumpaste figure for the top of my cake, but my cake was so rush that I nearly throw it out the door because I was not satisfy with it. However I spend so much time making the dragon that I have to post it. First time making a western dragon, I was so scared it turns out looking like a dinosaur, which is really what one of my friends think, she asked "oh why's there a dinosaur on top of the cake?" I was like does it really look like one? =( hahaha...Anyways sorry about all the bad qualities of my pictures, I dont have a camera or lets say it broke, so I used a cell phone camera.

Gift Box Anniversary Cake
Cake#6 - Was a cake for my customer's parent's 25th anniversary celebration...was a rush cake so I did a really bad job. The colors are her selection. Bottom tier - White cake w/ mango mousse, Top tier - Dark Chocolate cake w/ fresh strawberry slices & cream, Decoration: White Calla Lilies, White Roses, white filler flowers, Gold Bows & Ribbons, Silver 25 topper. My hubbie turned on the heat and the buttercream started to melt, you can see the sides arent even. But I have to say "THANKS so so much Hubbie!!" He stayed up til 8am in the morning trying to help me with the cake, and he has work in a few hours too!

Chinese Pagoda Cake
Cake #3 - 12/18/2009 - This cake was an order for my friend's friend's birthday...I practically did it for free, except she helped buy the ingredients...It's very experimental and very satisfying. I would use chocolate cookie straws but my friend wanted a certain brand but it does not carry chocolate cookie ones. Well, I still need to work on my cake and fondant rolling skills. The pagoda is made out of Rice Krispy Treats, The bottom layer is Chocolate WASC w/ strawberry mousse & 2 boxes of sliced fresh strawberries!! Top layer is chocolate w/ whipped cheesecake filling...There are also the colorful chocolate stones <

Lady Bug Cake
11/14/2009 - This cake is made to celebrate my baby girl who just turned 6th month old! So many good Lady Bug cakes out here on CC that I have to make one of my own. Thanks for "i totally forgot the user's name" for his/her inspiration! This is my 2nd fondant cake...still SOOO newbie at it...hope people can give me some good tips. I'm also very rebellious, I like moist cake with light cream filling...so you can see my cakes all sloping and bulging...I know I shouldnt use whipped cream but I love it... Thanks for looking! ^-^
