I was a little disappointed with how this cake actually came out, but I loved the idea of a sugar cookie nativity, so I thought I'd post it anyway.
Construction themed birthday cake! Everything but the trucks is edible. The dirt is crushed chocolate cookies, the rocks are a combination of chocolate boulders, chocolate coal, and dried dates.
A big thank you to my in-laws for letting us borrow their van after our car was totaled on a very snowy winter night. My first attempt at working with fondant, I was pretty pleased with the results.
Made for my Grandfather's 90th birthday! He was an avid gardener who still works 3 days a week at his nursery/garden supply store. Butter cream icing, crushed chocolate cookies for dirt, vegetables and shovels made out of colored tootsie rolls, pretzel rods, and airheads. Seeds are chocolate coated sunflower seeds, ladybugs are cherry cordial m&ms with melted chocolate piped on. Fence is white chocolate piped onto wax paper, then chilled. Peeled off the wax paper and carefully stuck on the sides of the cake. The rabbit figurine was the only non-edible part of the cake.
My Wilton Course 2 was right around Easter, so my basket weave cake for the course doubled as a dessert for Easter dinner. Buttercream frosting and leaves with royal icing flowers.
Made for my mother-buttercream icing and leaves with royal icing pansies.
My course one wilton clown cake.
Made for some dear friends. Unfortunately, the air conditioning at the reception hall was broken, and the 85 degree heat was not kind to the buttercream, and the only pictures I have before it started wilting a little bit have people in them. The flowers were all handmade from a fondant/gumpaste mixture.
Made for my Wilton Fondant and Gumpaste course.
