The day before the party and my daughter still hadnt decided what she wanted for a cake, finally decided on New Moon. She loves Jacob and the werewolves, so here we are!
I had a toy story cake to make and was hoping to do Buzz. The little boy however loved woody more. This is my first figure on a cake and wasn't really sure how to approach it. I Made woody from gumpaste and the bed is vanilla sponge with fondant icing. I would like to say a huge thank you to all those CCers that have posted on the forums that were so helpful to read and gave me numerous hints on how to tackle this.
I saw Melissa's tutorial from mycakeschool.com and absolutely loved the idea. I just tweaked it a little bit to add my personal touch. I loved how they turned out, and they went down a storm.
The inspiration for these was the old rhubarb and custard boiled sweets that you get. Love them!
I made this for the company I work for on the first anniversary of the claims department being in house and not external. This was also one of my first cakes. Went down really well and was even featured in the company magazine
My partner turned around the night before his birthday last year and said "I bet you cant make me a pirate ship cake for my birthday!" With not a lot in the cupboards, this was the end result!
This is vanila sponge with swiss rolls making the corner towers. Mini swiss rolls were cut to different lengths for the top towers. It has a 10" square cake with an 8" round sat on top. Both of these have strawberry jam filing. I used white fondant icing and the PME stone wall impression mat and the cobblestone one for the tops. One the battlements were on, I sprayed the cake with pink edible lustre spray and painted the battlements darker with wilton copper tone colour. The doors are coppertone painted and windows left white and all have pink edible balls edging them. The rose bushes were piped on with royal icing.
