Black Scroll Birthday Cake
A local dentist has me do all of the cakes for his assistants birthdays and anniversaries. I try and do something a little different with each cake I take to them. This time around I decided to work on my scrolls. Black scrolls around the side as well as in place of the top border.

Western Wedding Cake
This was done for a western themed wedding. The borders are rope made from twisted fondant. The decor around the center of the cake is fondant twisted to look like barbed wire. The initials are branding irons. Each initial is for a child or grand child of the couple getting married. Then a larger brand on top.

Graduation Cake
I did this one for a good friend of mine. I had some of my Industrial Engineering classes with him. He graduated this spring with his IE degree. There is a calculus book, Operations Research book, Graduation cap, and a "Dos Equis" bottle. Done in IE flavor to match his degree.The top of the hat is gum paste, the only thing not edible is Tassle.

Jungle Theme Baby Shower Cake
This was my first time working with fondant sculpting animals. Also my first time doing detailed work with gum paste. The animals are Fondant, the trees on top are gum paste. I had a little trouble gluing everything together. In the end, the woman it was for and everyone at the baby shower loved it.

Beer Tub Cake
A little twist on the Beer cooler cake. I needed something to serve a few hundred people at a local music venue. They use Beer Tubs to serve beer out of, so what better than a beer tub cake! The bottle caps were made from cast white chocolate. I think that may be the only addition over the normal beer cooler cakes
