10" double layer cake with mousse filling and buttercream icing. Modeling chocolate accents on the cake and some candy chocolate "rocks". The tractor is RKT rice krispie treats covered in modeling chocolate. this was a first time use of modeling chocolate..and I fell in love with it. The cake turned out better than I imagined and my wonderful nephew Loved it. M is for Mason. it was his 4th birthday.
My 2yr old niece loves Tink so...this was perfect for her. Tinkerbelle doll in a cake, strawberry, confetti cake with vanilla mousse filling and buttercream frosting. MMF leaves and accents. I absolutely LOVED doing this cake. It was so fun to do the details. The Cake is made by baking your mixes in a 8cup glass/pyrex measuring cup. I also used a 9" round for more cake, on the very bottom. Removed Tinks clothes and wrapped her in plastic wrap, covered her head until I was completely finished. I forgot to attach her wings in these pics because the cake was going to be transported.

I made this cake upon special request of the 11 year birthday girl. Her three loves are Reading books, playing her DS and racing her Soap Box Derby car. So we rolled into a winning cake. Cake is french vanilla, buttercream frosting and MMF fondant. the DS and accents are in MMF marshmallow fondant. the Number 11 is made of Modeling Chocolate with real candles in the centers and the little 3.5" Soap box derby car is made of Polymer clay, its a replica of her derby and meant for a keepsake.
Mario Cake for special 5 yr olds birthday, Jaiden! Bottom cake 10" strawberry with vanilla mousse filling, square layer, confetti cake with vanilla mousse filling, top was single strawberry layer and then rice krispie treat covered in fondant. buttercream frosted with fondant decorations. ~the square layer was a "leaner". I didn't cut it square enough and it wanted to lean as the cake settled...talk about stress..OY! Modeling Chocolate Mario! Rice Krispie Treat under the choc. about 6" tall.
for Best Big Sister in the Whole World!! For her Birthday party at the Tiki Beach. bottom: 12x12 white cake, mid: Marble choc/yellow with choc mousse filling, Top: choc cake with van. mousse and coconut frosting. Marshmallow fondant decorations. LOOK now..because the icing is sliding off the cake..this face had a bulge, the tiki torches started falling ...the top cake is seperate and this morning..it was naked! all the sides fell off! Oh POOP!! fixed & praying it holds until 3pm. but it slide off on the car ride down..so patched and put in freezer...and that held it all evening!
Birthday for my little sister...she own the Pot House Garden Center..and one of the buildings is designed like an upside down flower pot. This took lots of my patience, getting the correct slope on the pot and then the MMF covering was not cooperating. Chocolate layers, french vanilla layer and White Choc pudding mousse filling. This was one on the moistest cakes! The little figure is made of polymer clay..easier to keep that way :-)
this was lots of fun! my 3yr old daughter loves deigo and the bobo brothers. so this is what all the inspiration from cake central and imagination created. MMF with buttercream detail. Bobo Brothers & a green snake & some leaves are MMF. Turned out better than I thought. thank goodness for all the plastic characters or I would have been up all night making baby jaguar and the gang!
Double layer New York Style Cheesecake 9" x3" thick each layer. Mother to be does not like cake so I made this wonderful alternative. the top water and duck are on cardboard so they could be lifted off, set aside. the bubbles are very large pearl like beads. ducky is one that you can use to tell you if baby's bath water is too hot.
This was my very first 'different' shaped cake and first time using fondant. The design/idea came from a yahoo image search...I think I've seen the original on CC, too. Friends recommended making MMF (marshmallow Fondant). it was sooo easy and fun. The chocolate fondant tasted like tootsie roll...mmm. The cake is made with 2.5 mixes, totaling 5 8" round cakes, cut in half, so now there is ten. White icing inside covered with MMF. The sand is made from brown sugar, graham crker crumbs and gingersnaps. I made this for my sister's Tiki Opener party and her birthday. She loved it.. and now I love using MMF....oh the possibilities!
A good friend is an avid skier and turning 40... This is my first cake with buttercream icing (thank you to the AgentCakeBaker for the buttercream dream recipe) This was soo much fun. The trees are sugar cones, the skier is MMF marshmellow fondant. Hand painted signs. Many thanks to all the wonderful ideas that others have posted! a few silly details..the bunny, squirrel and a beer can. all MMF there are skewers in the sskiier...to keep him on the cake..he had a 2.5 hr drive...didn't want him to crash.
