Corpse Bride Cake

This was the bride's choice for her wedding cake. They wanted it to look extreme and get a reaction from their guests. However, I had serious issues with the fondant (used wilton's for the first time and it dried out too fast) and with the whole topsy turvy design (my first time with whimsical cakes). Also pushed on the second tier to fit it in the tight spot I carved (my mistake) and the cake collapsed a little. Please comment i'm curious what advice you all can give!

Fab At Fifty Cake

My first fondant cake and a tremendous undertaking that totally did not work out! The black and white panels, outlined in gold and green (the gold turned out to be yellow at the last minute) were to represent the party invitation. Nothing went right with this cake and I'm super embarrassed by my decorating inabilities on this one. Expected the client to call to complain but she never did.

Bon Voyage Cake

for a 25th birthday/going away cake for my dentist's daughter. Its 3 different kinds of cake for each tier. Vanilla, Chocolate, and Red Velvet. She wanted "fiesta themed" and gave me these colors (which she said I matched perfectly, but I dont see them as "fiesta". Only my second cake working with fondant and it was tough!
