This is a fudge marble cake covered in buttercream to look like tree bark. The nest is made from melting chocolate. The birds, ladybugs, and mushrooms are made from fondant. I made this cake for my aunt who loves birds.
This is a yellow pudding cake covered with a black fondant tablecloth. The tea set is also all fondant.
This is a cake I made for someone whose favorite animal is the giant anteater. It is chocolate pudding cake with brown fondant covering and buttercream fur. The ants, tongue and facial features are black fondant.
These are German chocolate cupcakes covered with the traditional coconut pecan frosting. I added symbols of Germany: glasses of beer, pretzels, and German flags as toppers made from melting chocolates. I know German chocolate cake isn't really German, but it's what the birthday boy wanted.
I made this gluten-free yellow cake for my mom's birthday. It is iced with Pillsbury canned decorator's icing, but I found it difficult to use and it oozed out from between the layers, making bulges. The dancers are fondant.
I made this cake for my dad and his new wife, who love Native American art. I traced the design with melting chocolate, but the actual painting was too intricate, so I had to simplify it. They also love music, so the cupcakes have chocolate musical instruments on them.
These are gluten-free apple cinnamon cupcakes with yellow buttercream icing. The University of Washington's mascot is a husky, so I made paw prints from Milk Duds and chocolate chips (also gluten-free).
I made this cake for a chemist in the style of an element on the periodic table, using the birthday boy's initials and birth date. I also made accompanying cupcakes, each with their own element made from melting chocolate on top.
This is a toolbox (sort of) made from gluten-free brownies iced with buttercream. I had trouble with the icing consistency, as well as with getting the corners and edges straight. The tools are made of chocolate. The small yellow toolbox is also a brownie cake with chocolate tools, but it's a miniature one.
This is the 5th cake I have made. It is based on the covers of the book series The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency, but it was for my aunt, who loves birds and calls them "dee-doos," so I changed the title to "Dee-doo Agency." The bird, branches and border are chocolate; the yellow background is vodka and food coloring. The cake is gluten-free yellow cake.
This is a cake I made for my dad, who is an avid collector of Tlingit Native art. The salmon is made of melting chocolate which I piped and refrigerated separately from the cake. The cake is gluten-free yellow cake filled with cream cheese frosting. I covered the cake in cream cheese icing also, which is why it isn't very smooth. I piped the wave border with buttercream though.
For my final cake in Wilton Basics our teacher requested that we do a Valentine's Day cake. My Valentine wanted a Mega Man cake, so I combined the two concepts. The cake is gluten-free yellow cake with buttercream icing. This is also my first attempt at roses and writing on a cake.
This was my second cake, which I made after having one class session of Wilton Basics. It is buttercream icing and my first attempt at a frozen buttercream transfer.
This is the first cake I have decorated; I did it for my Wilton class. The cake is gluten-free devil's food cake with buttercream icing.
