This is my first ever purse cake. It is supposed to be Coach, but since I was too scared to pain the "C" on the cake so I found one on the Coach site that had the Chanel look to it and chose it. This was a fun one!
Two tier chocolate cake with chocolate icing, covered in buttercream and fondant. It was a first birthday and there wasn't a set theme. She wanted bright colors and I thought Hello Kitty fits any little girl!!!
This was done using gum paste to make the penguins. I had so much fun making them. It was also another first for me. I felt the bottom of the cake was a little boring, but I just could 't figure out what to add that wouldn't clutter the cake.
A fabulous Sweet 16 cake for a Fabulous gal!!! She loves pink and zebra print. The zebra print was painted on of course.
This is the first time I have been asked to make the WWE ring. I had my thoughts about how easy it would be, but that wasn't the case. The ropes are Twizzlers tied onto the chocolate dipped pretzel sticks. Yes, tied on with fishing line. I could NOT make them stay on any other way. The WWE logo was printed on rice paper and was edible. The little boy loved it and that's all that mattered!
This is a baby shower cake that was a little different than the usual. The lady that ordered the cake brought me the butterflies to put on it. The flowers were painted on using water thinned food coloring. Forgive the photo quality. It was taken with a camera phone.
Chocolate cake with fondant and gumpaste decorations.
This is the Christmas cake I made for my husband's boss as a "Thank You for your business" cake. It is going to be given to a doctor's office. I made this with two tiers of yellow cake covered in chocolate fondant. The gingerbread girl and boy were made with the chocolate fondant and gumpaste. I am quite pleased with this one.
This was my first attempt at a "weiner dog." I didn't have much to go by. I was told a weiner dog on a path. I tried to embellish it, but didn't know what else the little girl wanted. I am happy with it, but wished I could have gotten more suggestions as to what else to put on the top. I made the bushes out of cupcakes and the lady bugs out of fondant.
This was a chocolate cake that I carved into the shape of Strawberry Shortcake's hat. I used extra cake to lift the hat where it should fit on the head. It is just buttercream icing piped on, but it's my favorite piped cake!
This was done for a friend of mine. She had two neices expecting a month apart. One was having a girl, the other a boy. I made this with chocolate cake on the bottom and yellow cake on the top. I also made this with my FIRST EVER mm fondant. I colored them during the melting stage. This is easier on the hands, but harder to judge the amount of color you are using. But, this one tasted better than any other store bought fondant thus far.
This is a 2 tier cake done in pink and lime green fondant. There is edible sugar dust on the flowers and the bow. This is my favorite by far...thus far!!!
This was my very FIRST attempt at a fondant covered cake. I gave it all kind of royal icing dots because I didn't want to ruin it and I didn't have a lot of experience in cake decorating. This is one of my faves though! I bought the tiara at Walmart and she wore it after she blew the candles out.
This was my nephew's cake. He is only 6 and loves the show "Ax Men." I was told to make him a logging cake. I had no idea where to go for this one. I think it is a little plain, but I haven't gotten a lot of fondant practice under my belt and this was what I was able to do. I made the little "resting" guy on the top. He is the first person I have tried to make. I used ice cream cones with royal icing as the trees. I had didn't have my leaf tip so I improvised and it turned out okay. Again, chocolate cake on bottom and yellow on top. Let me know what you think.
This is a cake I made for my niece's 3rd birthday. I have only done one fondant covered cake before this. This was the first time I tried to make the animals. I was told to try to make it realistic. That was fine with the elephants, but the rest was just easier to do more cartoonish. The cake is chocolate on the bottom and yellow on the top. I used buttercream and fondant for the cake.
