This was for my brother-in-law's 40th birthday this year. The theme was totally 80's - Pac Man, neon, animal prints,and Rubik's cube. The tiers were white cake filled with SMBC except the Rubik's cube which was carved rice krispie treats. All details were MMF except the Rubik's cube squares, which were gumpaste.
I made this for my mother-in-law's birthday this year. It was inspired by a cake I found on Cake Central. Carved chocolate cake filled with 2 layers of chocolate SMBC. Gumpaste fence posts and flowers. The dirt was crushed up Oreo cookies.
For my niece's birthday. Bunny was made from rice krispie treats wrapped in MMF. The hat was three 2" layers of white cake filled with SMBC. I couldn't figure out how to make the hat brim so I just wrapped a cake board in black fondant. Next time I would try using chocolate. Crusting buttercream forsted the bottom tier; smoothed with Viva paper towels. MMF and gumpaste details.
For my niece's 4th birthday. Her birthday is in July so she had a beach party. Beachball was made from the Wilton sports mold and covered with white mmf, then I just freehand cut the stripes to put on the ball. The beach scene for the bottom tier was layers of MMF. I used my leaf cutter to make the fish.
For my nephew's 12th birthday. Big fish was made from rice krispie treats and covered with MMF. All other details were gumpaste. Lots of stuff on this cake!! I needed to make it about 2 sizes bigger :)
This was for my 4 year old niece's monster birthday party. The orange monster was two 4" stacks filled with SMBC and covered with MMF. The monster was modeled after the monsters on her invitations. The cupcakes were misc. monsters inspired by photos found on Cake Central.
This was for the nephew of a friend who is crazy for Mickey. The hat was half of the Wilton sports mold covered with black MMF. The ears were made from a thick cut of gumpaste, which was allowed about a week to dry out, and stuck into the hat by 3 prongs of food-safe wire and a layer of royal icing to "glue" them down. Bottom tier design were cut layers of marshmallow fondant.
This Harry Potter sheet cake was for my nephew's 11th birthday. Harry was made from gumpaste - he was the first figure I'd ever made. The crest was made from marshmallow fondant. I projected a picture of the crest I found on the internet on to the wall and traced the details on to wax paper, then transferred the wax paper stencils to the MMF to cut. Buttercream frosting smoothed with Via. Viva Viva!!
This was a WASC cake; 10" square bottom tier and 5" round top tier. Both tiers were filled with a layer of SMBC, and draped in pink marshmallow fondant. Towers made by wrapping gumpaste around cardboard tubes. Gumpaste and MMF details. I would personally like to thank whomever the genius was who invented Royal Icing - that stuff is miracle frosting for "gluing" the towers to the cake and making sure everything was super stable. Hooray for Royal icing!!!!!
Just made this for a 7 year old's birthday. My first two tier with additional items on top. Used sports ball mold for ball and MMF fondant dragon on top of that, gumpaste details. I got much inspiration from many different cakes on CC - thanks for letting me borrow your ideas!! ;)
