Jungle Animal Baby Shower
8 in square cake- chocolate with raspberry filling and covered in chocolate ganache. 6 in vanilla cake filled with a lemon pudding and covered in buttcream. MMF covered cakes and animals made from mmf/gumpaste. Took the idea from KarolynAndrea here on CC and some other random ideas. This was my first sculpting animals.

Owl Baby Shower Cake
I made this for my friends baby shower-she's having a boy next month:) Her theme for the shower is owls so this is what I came up with. I stole different ideas from different pics that I saw on pinterest, google and of course on CC. The cake is WASC, filled with choc buttercream, and covered in chocolate ganache. This was my first time using fondarific fondant to cover the cake, and I didnt think it was any better or easier than my homemade mm fondant. The owl is a mixture of gumpaste and fondant, and everything else is fondant. Thanks for looking!

Princess Belle Cake
Little girl turning 3 wanted a princess theme so I chose to do Belle. Cake is vanilla with chocolate Italian buttercream covered in MMF. Roses are gumpaste- my first time making roses and they turned out a little big, but Im still happy with them. The swags are mmf. I bought the Belle figurine because Im not that talented to sculpt yet :)

Cirque De Bebe
The theme was kind of circusy (is that word?) The host emailed me some pics from an unknown website and this is what we came up with. Everything was made out of fondant. I left the top plain because the grandma wanted to put peacock feathers on top. I learned something new with this cake- dont cover the cake in a mousse because it wont harden like buttercream or ganache and will make the fondant look droopy and soggy:( Oh well... it was still cute.

Duck Baby Shower Cake
The theme for the shower was rubber ducky. The duck is rice krispy treats, everything else is fondant. I made this before I had alphabet cookie cutters so I had to try to write his name on the cake with some writing gel stuff...bad idea. But overall it turned out well. (And I didnt make the cupcakes.)

Jungle Theme Baby Shower Cake
Mama to be decorated the baby's room in a jungle theme so I thought I would try to match that with the shower cake :) Everything on the cake is made out of fondant. These animals took a lot of time because it was my first time making any kind of figure. Turned out well though.

Beach Cake
Mom wanted a beach cake for her birthday...so this is what she got:) The cake is covered in buttercream- my first time covering a cake in buttercream instead of fondant and I used the viva method. The chair, blanket, book and flower are made out of gumpaste, the shells and coral are white chocolate dusted with pearl dust, and the sand is brown and white sugar. I tried to write happy bday with a toothpick on the book. The cake itself is vanilla with italian buttercream and fresh strawberries in the middle.

Cowboy Baby Shower Cake
Baby shower for a little boy. The cake wasnt totally my idea...the host emailed me some pics of what she wanted. The baby and stick horse were my ideas though :) Everything made from fondant. I bought some food spray in silver and spray painted the horse shoes and belt buckle. Worked out really well.
