This is a cake I did for a family friend who wanted her family added to the cake and also incorporate roses, diamonds and swans so this is what I came up with. The top tier is fruit cake and the bottom and middle are both sponge. TFL
My Mum asked me for a cake for her friend's 80th birthday the only direction she gave me was she wanted it pretty and then said with butterflies. This is what I came up with after taking inspirations from a lot of talented cake makers. Lemon sponge filled with lemon and buttercream. TFL
This is the first tiered cake I have made after a disaster that collapsed in transit. Thanks to all the lovely CC members who gave me courage and inspiration to try again. Heart shaped wedding bottom tier was fruit then lemon and vanilla sponge for the top 2 tiers. Swans made out of modelling icing and sugar flowers.
My grandson wanted transformers for his birthday and I didn't know where to start so my inspiration came here on CC from "Theweddingsuper" who I hope doesn't mind my attempt at this cake. This was a labour of loveand a lot of work. It is vanilla sponge filled with buttercream and strawberry jam all the covering is foundant. TFL
The person asking for the cake sent me a picture of the cake she wanted so this is not my design. It is a basic vanillia sponge with rasberry and butter cream filling. All decorations are fondant including the mickey mouse figure TFL
Cupcakes for my Mum, daughter and DIL.From Peggy Porchen's book not up to her standard but I was happy with them. Raspberry flavoured sponge covered in fondant and sugar paste flowers. TFL

Kenny cake. I was asked for a very small Kenny as the guy it was meant for doesn't like cake. The body is devil chocolate cake filled with chocolate fudge and the head was RKT all covered in fondant. TFL
This was my attempt at a santa cake. Unfortunately I did not leave myself enough time for this and as it was for myself and family did not take as much care as I should have. He doesn't look quite right and not as good as the wonderful ones I have seen on here but he tasted just fine. He was traditional fruit cake covered in marzipan and fondant icing.

Lemon and vanilla giant cupcake filled with buttercream. All covered in fondant with fondant decorations
my first ever attempt at a giant cupcake. The customer requested that the top be a swirl of butter cream and 10 small cupcakes in additon all in hot pink and black. Not perfect but I was quite happy with the result. TFL
I had a request for this cake very last minute and a family friend wanted a number 2 cake with peppa pig. I did worry that due to the shape there would not be enough cake but it seemed a lot bigger when finished. I had to carve this by hand which is why the shape is not perfect but I am quite happy with the result due to the lack of time. TFL
Made for Halloween. The design is from a Debbie Brown book. Red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting and covered in foundant with foundant spiders. Found the red velvet too moist and soft for carving really so it is a good job for Halloween as the house look crooked. TFL
This is my very first attempt at a cupcake bouquet. I think I should have practised first as I just went straight ahead and tried to pipe the frosting 'roses' onto the cakes. These were vanilla and lemon cupcakes filled with apricot jam and lemon curd. The frosting is vanilla buttercream and strawberry frosting. These were for my Mum's 76th birthday and she was thrilled with them and didn't mind that they were far from perfect. TFL
