Pirate Cake
This is a pirate cake I've just finished but dont think its going to to survive transit. The body is chocolate sponge with chocolate buttercream filling, the head is rice krispie treats (first time I've used it), all covered in fondant icing. All was going well until I notice my pirate starting to lean backwards...I have now propped the head up with dowel rod, and dont know how to hide it as I cant give it to the customer with wood showing at the back....dont know what I could have done diferant...any suggestions greatly appreciated

Celtic Football Shirt Cake
This is a cake I've made for a guy at my partners work, He is a massive celtic football club fan. It is vanilla sponge with jam and butter cream filling, covered in fondant. The trickiest part was the badge and Tennents lettering. My first shirt cake so happy with the result!

Carnation Cake
I made this cake for my Mums birthday in a mad rush as my first cake collapsed, it started like as a sponge covered fondant vase with the flowers coming out of it, bit the vase collapsed and had to rush this cake the morning of my mums birthday, took me 2 hours from baking to covering so some slight bulging to the fondant as the cake had not settled when I decorated it, this must be one of my worst efforts...all the flowers are edible fondant, if anyone has any tips on how to makes a vase cake strong enought to support fondant flowers then Id really appreciate it
