R2D2 Star Wars
R2D2 cake for my son's birthday. Body is cake...legs/feet are crispy treats...all covered with fondant. Center support is fondant bucket covered with foil. Sorry for the low res photo. No one had a "real" camera around, only cell phones, and I was too pooped to think about photos until it was too late.

Ned Flanders, The Simpsons, Fathers Day
A Fathers Day cake for my husband with portrait of Ned Flanders from The Simpsons. My daughter says he resembles him. Cake is covered in buttercream, with Ned portrait in fondant, done in puzzle-type pieces to get the look. Most fun was piping Ned's little sayings on all four sides. Excuse the messy piping job...I'm a newbie, still working on it!

Married Couple
Depicts my beloved aunt and uncle in their wedding clothes from 50+ years ago. They passed away within 3 years of each other...my cousin did a double memorial, as my aunt never had a memorial/funeral for my uncle who passed away before she did. Cake was a cloud in heaven...a tribute to their love for each other. Figures are gumpaste...sitting on purchased miniature park bench and under purchased miniature garden arch...lettering is gumpaste, too, made with "funky alphabet" tappits...sheet music is gumpaste, too.

Theatre Actors Wedding Cake, Blue And Black
I made this for my cousin's wedding. They are theatre actors, thus the masks for the topper. Her dress was powder blue with daisies, thus the middle tier. And the zebra stripes was just to add to the "fun" of the blue and black theme. All done in fondant, except masks were gumpaste.

Turtle Birthday Mini Cake
First time ever to cover a cake with fondant. A "mini" cake for daughter's friend's birthday. Shell is half-dome cake covered with marbled fondant. Feet are peanut butter eggs covered with fondant. Head is two stacked peanut butter eggs covered with fondant. Tail is hand formed. Even a kindergardener could do this one!!
