First Attempts
This was my 1st time trying string work, bridge work, royal icing embellishments and brush embroidery. I have a lot to learn!!! I'd appreciate any advice!!! I had a really hard time with the strings breaking and stretching- maybe it was too loose? Having to stop all the time for my two little ones made this really frustrating- don't know if this is my thing right now. I learned it all from the internet- when I've got the time, I'd love to take a class!

Chili Time!
3 layer chocolate chili cake (cayenne in chocolate- very yummy) with caramel ginger mousse filling, vanilla smbc and mmf flavored with orange. At the last minute I addded the glass lid from a corning ware casserole because it fit perfectly! It fooled lots of folks at the chili cook off I went to! The "chili" layer is a mixture of chocolate buttercream mixed with cake crumbles, green fondant pieces and hershey's dark pieces which are great- like m&ms, but only in black, red and burgandy.

Something Strange In Your Beverage- Threadcakes Entry
This is my first time entering the Threadcakes contest- I had a great time making it! Mostly mmf, the handle and the ghost on the side are 50/50 mmf and gumpaste. It seemed ironic that the Stay Puft marshmallow man's demise was being sculpted in mmf!
