Giant Chocolate Donut With Blue Frosting
My nephew was turning 4, and wanted me to make his cake. I asked him what he wanted...I told him he could have anything he wanted. He chose, a chocolate donut with blue frosting and sprinkles....a giant one..lol. So thats what he got. Its a milk chocolate sour cream cake with fudge frosting covered in chocolate fonadant and blue fondant "frosting" with fondant sprinkles. Upon reflection, I think Mike & Ikes would have made better looking sprinkles.

Last Minute, No Tools.
I had to make a birthday cake for my step-moms mother, and I had nothing to work with. I had no piping bag, no mixer, no ingediants. I had to use a cake mix, and frosting from a container. I made some modeling chocolate out of a white chocolate bar, powdered sugar and food coloring, and made some flowers. I used a ziploc bag to pipe some designs on the cake, and tried to make roses with a piping bag...and the boarder is from a tinfoil tip I made.

January 50Th Birthday Cake.
This was the cake that got me addicted to making cakes. I made this cake for my mother-in-laws 50th birthday bash. There was alot of people attending and we didnt want to spend a great deal of money on a cake from the bakery. So I was told to make the cake. Now seeing as this was my first time making a big cake, and it was for my in-laws, I wanted to go "all out". This is my first time doing anything like this, and I had no idea on how to do anything..not even how to ice a cake. Its a white chocolate cake, with buttercream frosting. Sprinkled with large sugar crystals and melted white chocolate writing for the name and snowflakes. I made white chocolate lollipops for the topper and favors as well.

M&m Cake
This is VERY sloppy, I know. But, that aside, I think it is a very cute concept. I made this cake for my three year old nephew. I had a surplus of M&M's leftover from Halloween, and wanted to "reduce, reuse and recycle" (lol). Its just a standard white cake with chocolate and vanilla frosting, covered in the candies. Next time, I will take my time.

Tinkerbell Cake
This is a small three tier Tinkerbell cake that I made for my neices 1st birthday. It was my first time working with fondant, and I hadnot read anything on how to use it, other than watching Food Network (lol). The cake is a vanilla cake with rainbow sprinkles inside. I made fondant leaves and buttercream flowers. Again, I had no idea how to make flowers at the time, so I just kinda plopped them on there. The cupcakes are vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting and flowers. The center of some are chocolate covered pomogranate seeds. The fairies and the bugs are toys, and the grass around is edible Easter basket grass. First time...not that bad. The baby enjoyed it! And thats all that mattered!
