Yet another variation on the popular "Ducks in a Bath" baby shower cake. 6in vanilla w/chocolate BC as frosting and filling. Chocolate fondant for the barrel slats and vanilla BC for the water & bubble. Rubber ducks--the mama is the heat sensitive one that the new mother can use for the baby's bath.

Rose Swirl Cake
This was my first attempt at Amanda from "I am Baker"'s Swirled Rose cake. I had a little trouble getting the roses even so I filled the gaps with drop star flowers w/pearl centers and tiny leaves. The end result is sort of shabby-chic. DH took it to his office--10in round cake GONE in 20min.

This was my entry to the San Diego Cake Club's 2001 show. I placed 2nd in the Amateur Beginner category for Tiered-Fondant cakes. The 4-tiers of dummies are covered in chocolate fondant w/gumpaste dahlias based on awatterson's tutorial here on CC. The graphic leaves were cut using the Wilton leaf cutter set. The ribbon is fondant with piped edging made with a clay gun.

Suess + Mickey Birthday Cake
My friend & her little guy love both Mickey Mouse and the Cat in the Hat. She couldn't decide on one theme for his party so we came up with this combo. Thankfully the red-white-black work for both characters. Pale blue BC w/fondant stripes and edible images on fondant. French Vanilla WASC cake w/caramel cream filling. 3-layer 10in cake (It's a MONSTER) since I needed the extra height to make room for the Mickey cutouts.
