Owl Cupcakes
A friend of mine has a 2 year old niece who had her heart set on Minnie Mouse cupcakes for her upcoming birthday...that is until she saw pictures from her 1st birthday. She realized, to her horror, that she had Minnie Mouse last year. She quickly changed her tune and decided that she wanted "OW"s. Chocolate and vanilla cupcakes iced in buttercream with Oreos and M&Ms.

A House Divided
I am a proud graduate of the University of Georgia, and my husband....well he graduated from Tennessee. We had all our friends over for the UGA vs. UT game this year and I made a cake for the occasion. The helmets are chocolate cake covered in MMF (masks are white chocolate) and the field is vanilla cake (dyed to be a red and orange swirl) piped in buttercream. The cake was delicious. Unfortunately, a Tennessee fan upset about the outcome of the game took out their anger on the Georgia helmet, but other than that, everyone at the party loved it.

King Of The Jungle Baby Shower
I made this cake a couple of months ago while I was still taking the Wilton Decorating Basics course. Despite being overambitious, it really turned out well! This is my first time with fondant, first attempt at making anything out of gumpaste, and my first tiered cake! It's also what officially made me fall victim to the cake bug. Vanilla cake based on a plate that matched the decorations.

Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate
For chocoholics...devil's food cake filled and iced with chocolate buttercream and covered with ganache. Just typing that makes me want a big glass of milk. First time with the ganache and I don't think I melted the chocolate pieces all the way. It turned out slightly lumpy. :-/

Princess Castle
The birthday girl requested "a princess castle with a princess on top", so this is what she got. The inside was chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry (also at the request of the princess) layers with buttercream filling. It's covered in marshmallow fondant with fondant accents. The princess is modeling chocolate. This was my first time using the Wilton castle kit.
