Father's Day 2010
I made this cake for my Dad, who is a cowboy at heart. :) Sorry for the terrible background, I made it in my parents kitchen and didn't have anywhere to put it to take a really nice picture. This was my first attempt at a fondant figure to top a cake. Overall, it's not perfect but I learned a lot and he really liked it. :) That's what counts :)

My First Wedding Cake
This was my very first wedding cake :) I hope to make many more. I used 8", 12", and 16" square cakes. All are iced with BC. The flowers are made of royal icing. I used directions for making an easter lilly, but made them green instead of white to fit the wedding's color theme. This cake was actually for my brother and law, who is a big football fan.....therefore the goofy cake topper. I was kind of hoping all of my hard work on those flowers (it was my first time using royal icing) would be topped with something more elegant. :) But I guess the football topper matched his personality better. :)

Frankenstein
My boss asked me to make this cake for her grandson's class at school. Since he is in kindergarden, I wanted a Halloween cake that wouldn't be too spooky. I thought this was a good compromise, because he still looks a little goofy :) Everything is BC except his eyes and nose, which are m&ms. The good thing about making this cake is that you only have to use 3 of the m&ms and still have the rest of the pack ton enjoy for yourself. :)

Atlanta Baseball Cake
For this cake I used a Wilton sphere shaped pan to bake the baseball. For the homeplate, I baked a rectangular cake and then carved it into the shape of the base. I cut about an inch or so off the bottom of the "baseball" so that it would sit flat on top of the base (also added a dowel rod for support). I iced the base white and then sprinkled graham crackers crumbs on it to make it look "dirty."
