Cookie Jar Cake for my daughter's 10th birthday. Cake is airbrushed with a blue sheen to give it a shiny ceramic look, but for some reason the sheen didn't come through in the photos...Cookies are real. Lid is also cake.
My sister was moving away to Australia and I wanted to make her a cake as part of her goodbye party. Unfortunately I was riculously busy and didn't have a lot of time..however, I quickly ganached a cake, with the outline of Australia and a little red fondant dot for Adelaide where she was moving too.
Made for a couple for their 65th wedding anniversay. The cottage is a replica of the couple's home near the sea. Adirondak chairs are fondant!
Chocolate cake with raspberry mousse filling. Noodles are white chocolate buttercream. Oregano is diced mint. Sauce is fresh raspberries, strawberry jam, white chocolate, and buttercream. Meatballs are ferrero roches, dipped in chocolate so you don't see the nuts...in hindsight I should have just made cakeball meatballs with the cake remnants! However Ferrero's are my favorite..White chocolate for parmesean. Garlic bread is angel food cake broiled in oven, with butter cream spread on top while still hot...

Chocolate cake with hand made chocolate panels. Stars are created from chocolate transfer sheets. Got this idea from Melissa at MyCakeSchool. Wanted a prettier design for the panels, but the cake supply store had limited inventory at this time...Cake is covered in ganache and then I applied the panels. Very chocolatey and rich cake!
Mack Truck made for Mack Truck's 10th Anniversary for the owners in the City where I live. Length of trailer, cab etc was 22" long. Height, including support dowels/axles was approx 8". Took 5 cake batters to make. Cake weighed 21.5lbs. Wish I'd done a few more details, but I'd spent quite a bit of time on it already, so decided to leave well enough alone. Thank you so much to Madkat, ChefRoberto, Cookiecutters, Kitagirl and Susanscakecreations for their inspiration and advice!
My friend's husband's 50th birthday cake. He absolutely adores his 4 egg-laying chickens...so this is what came to me for a design :-) The sheet cake on the bottom is actually from Costco..they must not use real butter, as man it was next to impossible to add icing ("grass") and "dirt" to this cake as their icing was so soft and melting like crazy. Anyway...did what I could and as you can clearly see...writting on cakes is NOT my forte! I must get better at that!! Wooden barrel is a chocolate cake. Chicken coop is cereal treats covered in fondant. Hay is coconut, all decorations are fondant. Guy in barrel is made entirelly out of fondant. Sign says "Hollycock Farms" (a private joke). Steaming cup of coffee beside him, as he always sits out with a coffee when he checks on his chickens. Also I kept forgetting to add all the details I'd made earlier (i.e. his black socks...put them on and snapped one final photo. Totally forgot the little chicken eggs and added them much later so they don't show in these pictures... Fun cake to make though, just from the pure concept. :-)
"Ice cream" is a french vanilla cake, filled with raspberry buttercream and covered in french vanilla buttercream icing. "Waffle bowl" is a chocolate cake, filled with raspberry buttercream, and covered in chocolate ganache and then fondant. Fondant bananas and spoons (spoons have each party-goes name on them - a brilliant idea inspired by jcstefanic's cake). Real whipped cream, sprinkles, chocolate ganache fudge topping, and of course a cherry on top! And don't forget to serve with a side of real ice cream!
For my mom's birthday. Made in a bit of a rush before holidays so please be kind! :-) Chocolate cake with raspberry buttercream filling, covered in chocolate ganache and fondant circles. Real flowers on top.
Made for a very nice man turning 65. He and his wife live by the ocean and love sea shells etc. Shells are fondant. Coral is white chocolate melted and drizzled into coral type shapes.
Made this cake for the staff at my kids' school. They go to French Immersion, hence le Francais. :-) Apple is rice krispie treats, covered in ganache and then fondant. Chalk board, spelling list, chalk, crayons, ruler...are all fondant.
