Minecraft, adventure time and pokemon all in one cake. Characters selected by teen being honored.
Modern take on Noah's Ark for baby Jackson's christening. The wave pattern on the bottom tier was challenging and time consuming to do.
Shower cake for a couple who were getting married on a beach in the Caribbean. Inspiration was a photo on the couple's wedding website.
Lego Star Wars Millenium Falcon cake with hand painted deep space board. The cake is intentionally tilted on the board (the back was raised slightly) to make it easier to see the top of the cake.
Everything is edible including the hat. Matching smash cake in buttercream with fondant decorations. It was placed in the middle a candy table in the same color theme.
Yankee Stadium as made from chocolate cake (the new stadium, that is).
A 3-D lipstick cake for a surprise 21st birthday. The cake was about 20" long, and it is hard to tell from this photo but the red lipstick was glossy. Not the greatest photo.
The order was for a cake that wasn't too babyish with a mother-to-bee theme. I came up with this design. Everything is edible (except the wires on the flying bees). Lemon cake with lemon buttercream inside. The gumpaste blue pacifier is because the baby is a boy.
3 kids, different color preferences, 3 different interests, all reflected in one cake. Everything is edible except the soccer ball (it needed to "float").
Groom's cake as a surprise from the bride. It seems the groom has the same thing for lunch nearly every day - a turkey sandwich and diet coke. Coke cake is about 11" tall, 6" diameter.
Inspired by a photo sent to me by the bride, source unknown. The flowers on the table are the bouquets from the bridal party; the flowers on the cake are sugar. I'm pleased with how it held up considering it was an outdoor wedding and it was about 90 degrees today. No refrigeration either.
Side design based on the invitation. Double barrel cake, with pink ombre layers in both top and bottom tier. Many thanks to AZCouture for some last minute advice!
What would a slumber party be without the little sisters trying to join in the action? They're at the foot of the bed, getting into trouble. Please be sure to look at the photo of them.
I was asked to make a custom version of My LIttle Pony's Princess Celestia character on top of the cake with images of several other ponies around the sides of the cake. This version had to be turquoise with pink and white hair, with a cotton candy "brand" on the hind quarters. The birthday girl was thrilled and named every pony.
The photo doesn't do justice to the gold paint, which really sparkled. The front wing comes up off the cake and it is hard to see that too due to the lighting. I took this photo before putting the cake on its board for delivery, and then forgot to take another photo after putting it on the board, which said "Happy Birthday Michael. May the odds be ever in your favor" in the same font that is on the cover of the Hunger Games book. Grrr...
Birthday cake for a boy who is a tournament tennis player. The figure is modeled after him. I wanted the tennis ball to have texture so I intentionally left the buttercream a little bit rough. I wanted to give a sense of the fuzz on the ball.
His shoe on the left, hers on the right. Modeled after their actual running shoes. This version smelled MUCH better than the real shoes!!
Carousel was made to match the carnival-theme party invitation.
This cake was a surprise for a woman who designs and sews (and wears) very chic and trendy clothes. The dress on the dressmaker's form is a copy of one of her actual designs, complete with draping in the front and bold, gold sequins across the back (you can see a bit of the sequins in this angled photo). I added a pair of platform shoes to match. A few details - the thimble, scissors and golden needle with blue thread which wraps around the top tier - represent the sewing she does, but in a clean, modern way that matches her style. I love the back of the dress/cake. TFL.
The candles around the cake were for a candle lighting ceremony that is done at a bat/bar mitzvah.
I made this for a friend's daughter. She requested red velvet with cream cheese frosting. I made a modeling chocolate iphone (her gift from her parents) and car keys (in honor of her learner's permit) to place on the cake stand. The pink color didn't photograph well; it looks a little orange in the photo, but it was bright pink. I blurred out the background as it wasn't very attractive. Need to work on getting better photos!
This was made to replicate the groom's Harley, as a surprise from his bride. The headlight actually glowed!
Made at a class. Stringwork was very labor intensive and broke easily, but I thought it was a very pretty look. Flowers are gumpaste.
