Lego construction cake for my son's b-day party.
Lego minifigure head cake pops for my son to take to school for his b-day. He wanted all the faces to be the plain Lego smiley face; I couldn't talk him into a fun variety of expressions!
B-day cake for a fan of the Penguins ice hockey team.
Cupcakes for my daughter's b-day.
Cake for my son's b-day, based on his favorite book series (Magic Tree House).
Minnie Mouse playing peek-a-boo in a pumpkin for my daughter's 2nd b-day. Minnie is RKT; pumpkin is my first attempt at a simple cake carving and my second attempt at covering a cake in fondant. Lots of fun to make! My little girl walked around all day saying, "Minnie!" with a big smile on her face. : ) Idea based on cathie shinnick's cake.
Love birds anniversary cake for my DH. This was only the second time I've attempted to cover a cake in fondant, so please excuse the lumps & bumps! Inspired by Panel7124's gorgeous Birds in Love cake.
Cake for my sweet daughter's first b-day. Top border is sweetpeas because we call her "Sweetpea." Fondant/gumpaste replica of her beloved Snuggle Bunny lovey.
Rustic ridges on a fall cake for my DH's b-day. I was going to make gumpaste fall leaves, but I ran out of time, so I resorted to silk leaves. He didn't mind. : )
Just wanted to try my hand at this technique. Thanks la122475 for posting a link to a tutorial!
It's not perfect, but it's perfect for my son! For his 3rd b-day, he requested a cake with a yellow pickup truck on a chocolate road, with a tunnel and chocolate sprinkles (they're on the mud puddle). Cake is based on a photo I can't currently open to see artist's name... it's the #1 saved cake in racecars gallery.
This is the b-day cake I made for myself. : ) It's based on a cake on the Wilton website
All buttercream except the apple blossoms, which are royal icing. Inspired by pippilotta's apple blossom cake and the many other apple & cherry blossom cakes here on cc.
I made this cake to take to dinner w/ friends who have two preschool-age girls. They loved it! All buttercream except the button flowers, which are a gumpaste/ fondant mix. Inspired by thecakeninja's gorgeous flower cake.
This is my amateurish recreation of the top tier of our wedding cake, made for our anniversary. It was my first attempt at scroll work (harder than I thought), and my first attempt at gumpaste roses (easier than I thought).
Red Velvet Cake Truffles and Dark Chocolate Peppermint Brownie Truffles
Red velvet cake truffles and dark chocolate peppermint brownie truffles
Spice cake with caramel filling and cinnamon buttercream, with chocolate leaves, caramel & chocolate acorns, and RKT apples covered in melting chocolate (I had trouble dipping the apples, thus some look like they're melting or rotting : ). This was my first time trying all the techniques and recipes used in this cake. Thankfully just a have-fun-and-experiment cake. : )
So, I know I had overdecoritis, and I know the leaf pile is way out of proportion, but I'm a newbie and had so much fun making this cake and learning lots! I made it for the cake decorating competition at our school's fall festival (& won 1st place!). The barn and leaf pile are RKT decorated w/ RI, the cake is decorated w/ buttercream, and the figures are MMF. Inspired by KristyCakes amazing fall farm cake.
This is my 2nd cake after completing the Wilton decorating basics course. It was my first time touching fondant and RI. It's chocolate cake w/ peanut butter cookie filling, frosted w/ buttercream. Trees are RI over sugar cones, other toppers are fondant, and side decorations are buttercream. Inspired by a cake on Wilton's website. It was a labor of love for my hubby's b-day!
My first cake after completing Wilton's decorating basics course. Cake was for my little guy's 1st b-day. I didn't smooth the top b/c I was planning on covering it w/ stars, but ran out of time. : )
