For my boss' daughter's 16th. She wanted a masquerade party and is quite the singer. POTO is her favorite. The sheet music is edible print torn to look like 'paper mache' attached with piping gel over fondant, the mask and other decorations are gumpaste. The black 'thing' around the back is the cape, I was trying to symbolize theater curtains with it as well, but didn't quite get there. French vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream.
My niece's 4th birthday cake and the first time I tried a character pan like this.
6 inch sugar free white cake with sugar free whipped topping. Every resident was given a birthday cake at dinner on their birthday at the senior living community where I worked. I themed them for the months, this one was obviously December :)
This was the first time I had every tried to make and decorate a gingerbread house. It was so much fun.
10 inch round white cake with vanilla buttercream covered in black fondant. Webs are white chocolate and spiders are fondant. Made this cake very quickly and very late in the day, but had fun.
Another family wedding cake. White cake with chocolate mousse filling. Vanilla buttercream covered with fondant.
I took at class at Wilton on intro to pulled sugar. It was fun. Can't wait to practice. Fantasy flowers and roses and leaves.
This is the first V-Day cake I made for work (senior living community) and very new at fondant. Fondant is hard on a heart shaped cake. My boss rushed me and made me stack it in 2 minutes, thus the crookedness! :( Flowers are fondant and bad, but first attempt at those as well,
Another Valentine's day from work (senior living community). Heart shaped cakes with vanilla buttercream. Silk flowers.
This was a cake I made at work for a Senior Living Valentine's Day dance. White cake with vanilla buttercream. Flowers are silk.
I made this cake before I had taken any classes. My cousin was getting married and he asked me to make his cake. How embarrassing it is to look at now! But it was this cake that sparked my interest in decorating!
Decorated sugar cookies.
This is a cake I "helped" my nephew make for class. Gold luster dust on fondant.
This is the cake I did for class. It was based on a platter that had similar colors, flowers and a wavy border. Banana Cake with Amaredo IMB covered in fondant. All flowers are gumpaste.
This is the cake I did from the intro class with Colette Peters at Wilton. It sustained a little damage on the trip home. The second tier slid some in the heat of the day and then hardened off center before I noticed, but you get the idea.
My first 3D and first time decorating with stars. Whew, I can still feel the hands cramping.
Here is my cake from Colette Peters advanced class at Wilton. It is a trompe l'oeil (fool the eye). A cake made to look like something else. I wanted to do a chintz pattern on the service and Colette suggested doing different patterns so I wouldn't 'loose' anything in it.
The first cake I did that was not fondant. Never had I tried any type of piping detail. They don't teach that at my school. I asked if they would teach us how to pipe flowers and such and they said no. Fondant and Gumpaste are the way to go. But I knew I would need these skills so I went to Wilton.
