Dartboard
Dartboard. Painfully slow cake to make, but enjoyable. 1) Plotted all the points of the dartboard on top of cream fondant. 2) Joined all the points using edible pen. 3) Hand painted the red, green and black segments. 4) Extruded thin sugar paste for the wires and numbers. Made for a special lady.

Dolls House Cake
I was asked to make a replica of the dolls house on the left. The recipient actually made the dolls house herself a number of years ago and the idea was to make a replica cake of the dolls house. It’s quite a tall and narrow cake so I found it tricky to keep the cake straight and vertical as it was made from sponge. I used 3 internal tiers to hold it all together and I think I just got away with it. I thought at one stage that this cake was going to break me! lol The replica cake is the dolls house on the right.

Polar Express Mountain
Polar Express. First attempt at a spiral mountain. My method was to carve a rough cone shape. Then using string, wrap it around the cake at an angle to make the spiral. Simply cut horizontally along the string line, then vertically about 30mm from edge starting at the top. Merry Xmas to one and all.

This was made for a special man, who owns a fishmongers. He has occasionally gives my young daughter a crab when we pop in the shop. My daughter wanted me to make him a crab cake, to say thank you for all the crabs he has given her over the years. It's not much, but we had to say thank you to him in some way. I hope he likes it. My wife and daughter are popping into the shop tomorrow with the cake.

Hitler Joke Cake
Hitler Joke cake. This cake was made for someone that kept on winning German related prizes that she didn't really want. The customer thought it would be funny getting a Hitler cake made for her as a joke. She took the joke well apparently. *This cake is not meant to offend anyone* Sponge cake covered in buttercream. 1 piece of fondant used to cover face.
