Spencer's Cancer Free Cake
This is a four layer cake with a rice crispy lid. Each layer of the cake was a different color. The Legos on the cake are made out of Wilton candy melts. I wanted a less sweet buttercream, so I used a Swiss Meringue Buttercream. It was hot out and my a/c could not keep up in the kitchen. The frosting was soft, hence, it is not smooth. Taste was awesome. This cake was made for my nephew who beat lukemia. He loves Legos.

Poppie Cake
A lot of firsts here. First gumpaste flowers. First time covering with fondant. I did not have the air on and it was humid out. Kinda melted my fondant and extraspecial buttercream underneath. First time using a ribbon on a cake. Found out super glue can fix broken petals. It is a little wonky from the humidity, but for a first time cake it is OK.

I Got This Cake Idea From Another Ccer Today First Time Doing Stained Glass Not For A Person With Shaky Hands I Thinned Piping Gel Wit
I got this cake idea from another CCer today. First time doing stained glass. Not for a person with shaky hands. I thinned piping gel with vodka and added my color and brushed it on.. I used the piping gel technique to transfer the picture to the cake. Strawberry cake with real strawberry puree, Bavarian cream filling and almond BC.

Frog In Pond Cake
This was to celebrate my niece getting fully potty trained. She told me what she wanted on the cake. It was hard to incorporate everything. Lily pad is a Wilton Sugar Sheet. The frog and butterfly are lawn decor. The bees and ladybugs are Wilton. This is an ombre' cake, but I did not get any pictures of the inside.

Dale Jr, Daytona 09 Cake
I hate this cake. I was depressed the whole time I worked on it and nothing came out right. The people and objects are 50/50 gumpaste fondant mix. Some have legs of two different lengths. The car is huge- 9x13. I got the carving instructions off of Nati's site. I have a tire changer, jack handler, gas man and a supervisor. I painted the tires and fin after they dried. I cheated and superglued somethings. The gumpaste glue was not working fast enough. The numbers on the car are RI and I outlined them in edible marker. The windows are painted fondant. Lemon wasc with raspberry bc

Superbowl Referee Cake
I got the idea for this cake here. Sorry I don't know the decorator to give them credit. The hand is chocolate that I made in a mold of brown sugar that I made from my hand. The arm and ball are RKT. The arm is covered in fondant the ball in BC with RI accents. It is glued together with RI. The cake is iced in XSBC. It is orange cake with orange mousse filling. It took forever to do this cake. A lot of trial and error and guessing. Well worth it.

Sewing Machine Cake
This is my poor attempt at a sewing machine cake I seen here. First time working with RKT and covering them with fondant. All fondant accents. Butter Cake from Mermaids Bakery baked in 8" pans filled with orange cream cheese fluff filling and covered in chocolate extraspecial BC. I flavored the cake and RKT with orange flavoring. MMMMM. For someone who gave me a sewing machine.

Bucket Of Popcorn Cake
I got this idea here. It is two coconut cakes with coconut and chocolate chips added and two pineapple cakes with crushed pineapple added instead of the water. I used coconut milk instead of water in the other cake. They are 8" cakes carved to look like a bucket covered in IMBC. I used that froot by the foot stuff that has the yogurt in the middle for my stripes. I used sanding sugar for butter. Made this for my drive in movie party where I pull out my old super 8 projector and play em outside.

House To House Cake
This is the cake partially done. The houses are chocolate wasc and the base is a yellow 1/2 sheet cake wasc. The roofs, doors, windows are candy clay. The greenery is all silk. The people are plastic. The lady does have one a fondant dress and the man does have on a fondant tie. The bookbag, Bible, Watchtower and Awake magazine are made out of fondant. The magazines just barely fit in the bag. I used impression mats on the houses for the look of stone, brick, wood and siding. The cake was made for pioneer school.
