Ipod

This was for my husband. It was carrot cake- looking back, maybe not the best cake for this, but he loved it. The screen says "too much monkey business" by the beatles. it's the song our 2 year old dances around the house with daddy to.

Motorcycle Cake

This was for my brother in law. I had 3 family cakes that day for a joint family party- Would have been 4, except I refused to make one for myself (we have 4 december birthdays). So anyway- I just ended up sticking a toy motorcycle on top of here since I didn't have time to make a gumpaste one- oh well, next time!

Gleek Birthday

This was for a kid I babysit for. The hand was much cuter originally- very nice and streamlined- However, on the day I went to get it out of our spare fridge, I discovered that my dear hubby had unplugged it to use the outlet and forgot to replug it. So, the RKT had been sitting in a musty, damp fridge- yuck! My last second attempt ended up with a puffy hand, but it was for a 12 year old- and it was free so they didn't mind.

Picnic Cake

This was the first cake I did. Ants were gumpaste as well as the checkered blanket. Cake was fondant with grass and flowers in fondant. Had originally but a RTK basket on top dipped in chocolate but it was EXTREMELY hot in our house (AC had broken) and the basket just ended up looking like a pile of doody on top of the cake- so I tossed it before our friends got here for the BBQ! ha ha

Loopy Bow Cake

This was just a practice. The bottom level is smaller than the top tier- I've learned to fix that. But I was mostly trying to do a smooth looking buttercream and to practice a loopy gumpaste bow.

Tiffany Blue Birthday

This cake was for my cousin. She likes the Tiffany blue/brown combo so I made her this. Chocolate crusting buttercream. The bow got droopy- guess i should have let it dry longer. Lesson learned.

Yankee Cake

This is for my brother in law. He's a die hard Yankee fan. I got the idea for this cake by putting together ideas from several of the cakes here on CC. I'm just beginning this caking journey and am self taught so I REALLY appreciate all of the inspiring pictures you all post! Ball, Hat (not the brim) and field are cake. Jersey is fondant. Hat brim is fondant too.

Apple Basket

I got the inspiration for this one (along with MANY of my other cakes) here on CC. There were so many beautiful baskets, I just had to try one of my own. The cake is Apple cake with an apple filling. Cream cheese buttercream frosting. The apples were RKT covered in melted chocolate and then covered in fondant.

Super Bowl Xlv

This was my first super bowl cake. Made for my family for our annual party. I ran out of time and wasn't able to complete the cake- wanted to do the lines on the field and endzones, but helmets that kept wanting to fall over kept me busy until the last second- hence to football field- just a lotta grass!
