This was my first time making Orchids. I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out. I used a wilton mold for the fondant border and brushed it with old gold luster dust. It was WASC Chocolate cake with my own recipe of Chocolate buttercream.
White chocolate cake with strawberry filling and white chocolate buttercream. The flowers, eggs, and handle are fondant/gumpaste. I didn't have enough time for the handle to dry completely and it limped :( It was more size appropriate but I couldn't keep it up. I wanted to put a wire to support it but I didn't have time :( Overall I thought it turned out ok though.
This is just little hat I made for St. Patty's Day :) I had fun with it. I wish the brim was wider and the actual hat not so stocky. But still... I like it :D
We are having a family dinner tonight for my nephew. He's a miracle baby. Now a week old, he nearly didn't survive the pregnancy. My mother came to town and requested this cake since we are chinese and wanted to celebrate the heritage and the safe arrival of our little Colin. It's chocolate WASC with whipped chocolate rasberry ganache filling and iced with ganache then covered in marshmallow fondant. For some reason my "fail safe" fondant recipe failed me and it's pretty rough looking. But I really like how it turned out. Thanks to anna_bananna for the inspiration.
This was a cake I made for a friend's engagement party. The bride's colors are Black and red. I had a heck of a time with the fondant!!!! I made hazelnut/chocolate fondant and colored it black and then put satin ribbon around it with a pretty button. I'd love to hear any comments!!!!
I just really wanted to try this method. I know what I'll do differently next time. I guess it's cute though... My three year old said it was "amazing" lol.
I made this cake for my MIL's birthday. It did not turn out at all how I wanted it to. There was defintely improvising here. Non-the-less, I like it. I think it's cute :)
This cake was a hoot! lol pardon the pun ;) All MMF. Dark chocolate cake with SMBC.
This was a carrot cake with the crusting cream cheese icing. The accents are fondant. I feel like I'm getting better at this :)
This is all buttercream. I used a stencil to make the "sunbursts" . The board is mmf. tfl.
I've never made a cake on a rainy day before and so I didn't think anything about it. Well it started "melting" but other than that I thought it was cute :) It's all buttercream with gumpaste flowers. Pink lemonade cake with pink lemonade filling. Oh, and my first try at scroll work.
I did the cherry blossom inspired wedding cake for some close friends. I made the gumpaste flowers and made branches by covering flower wire with modeling chocolate. The cake is Vanilla with Vanilla Satin Ice Fondant. It's finished with a pink ribbon at the bottom of each tier. I have only been making cakes for about 5 months so I'm kinda proud :)
