Doberman "jet"
Made a cake for my mom's birthday but hadn't planned on decorating it. Couldn't bring myself to leave it completely bare, so I made a quick doberman topper in honor of her newest "baby" named Jet. Told her if I'd had more time I would have made him "blow" out the candles from his cute dobie butt!

3D Darth Vadar
This is the cake that I made for my nephew's 18th birthday. He's a huge Vadar fan...and I'm happy to say that he loved it! The torso is four 8" rounds of cake, carved to the torso shape. The legs, head & shoulders are RCT and the arms I built out of some spare colored fondant since I was having difficulties getting the RCT to stick to the plastic wrapped PVC internal structure. Next time I'll try modeling chocolate! This is only my 20th fondant covered cake...so while he's not perfect, I was pretty happy with it. I did cheat on the light saber, which I had planned to use poured Isomalt to make but ran out of time. The cape I made out of fabric. From head to top of board, Darth stood 36" tall.

Justin Bieber Birthday
I was asked to make a Justin Bieber birthday cake for a girl turning 14, who also loves music and plays piano. I took elements from the party decor (Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, stars & piano keys...not to mention Justin) and tried to incorporate it into the design. Was also inspired by several musical cakes here on CC & one Justin Bieber cake by eXtremecakes! Thanks for the inspiration! :)

Toothless From How To Train Your Dragon
Loved making this cake...inspired by the fabulously talented Rouvlee on Flickr website. Made this for a little boy turning 5...so I made a little guy on the cake to look like him, dressed in Hiccup's clothing. LOVED making Toothless! This is my 10th fondant cake & my fourth cake with fondant figurines.

Eeyore
Made a cake for my sister's birthday & decided at the last minute that I could NOT deliver it without some sort of decoration! So, I was able to make this little Eeyore to place on top of her Reese's cake in about 20 minutes. This is my second fondant figure...not perfect but next time I'll give myself more time! Thanks for looking!

Harry Potter Cake
My little girl wanted a Harry Potter themed birthday cake for her 7th bday. Was inspired by many of the cakes on cakecentral! All the decorations are fondant with exception of the Harry Potter figure on top of the cake...my daughter wanted something to keep after the cake was eaten! The spiders on the plate were made by two of my little ones...they wanted to help with the cake.

Dragon On A Stack Of Presents
This is my 5th fondant cake and my very first fondant character. Didn't have square pans...so had to cut down a sheet cake pan to make the bottom "present" and used some of the extra cake to make a special "present" for the 1-yr-old bday boy to tear into. I would have liked to add wings to my dragon but I ran out of time. I was inspired by a Debbie Brown cake of a sleeping dragon and notably a dragon by Gunilla & one by Tuggy. Thanks for the inspiration!
