Dragon Cake
I made this Deadly Shadow dragon cake for my daughter's 9th birthday. He has three heads (the eyes on the middle head light up), two tails and six legs. He is made from white chocolate mud cake, dark chocolate ganache and white modelling chocolate, all decorated in fondant which I textured and airbrushed. One of the heads is eating a fish and his teeth are dripping with blood. The wings are gum paste, and the eyes are isomalt. The dragon eggs are white chocolate mud cake with ganache and fondant, and the egg which is hatching (with a baby dragon claw reaching out) is gluten-free chocolate cake with ganache and fondant, for a girl who is Coeliac. On the board are rocks made of RKT covered in marbled fondant, and for the party I filled them with dry ice to give a smoky effect. The banner is hand painted gum paste. He was eaten in ten minutes, and the most popular part was the wings, although the modelling chocolate heads were quite popular too!

Toolbox Cake
This cake was for the 60th birthday celebration of a retired carpenter, who loves red wine and cheese. I made a cake in the shape of a carpenter's toolbox, with all the tools (made from modelling chocolate) discarded on the board next to the cake. The toolbox is now filled with a bottle of red wine sculpted from gum paste (with an edible image label describing the birthday boy) and cheeses made from modelling chocolate.

Rock Climbing Engagement Cake
This cake was made to celebrate the engagement of a female police officer (in her uniform on top of the cake) and her fiancé, dressed in his favourite football team's jumper. They both love rock climbing so I have sculpted the fiancé climbing the side of the cake with the engagement ring on a cushion. Their dog is at the top of the cake, holding ropes to help out his master! The ring is edible, made from fondant and a droplet of isomalt.
