Checkboard Engagement Celebration

240 small black and white squares created this checkboard pattern on this engagement cake. Fantasy flowers were made out of sugarpaste and given a shine with 50% vodka & 50% karo syrup. Bling ribbon gave this cake a "WOW" factor and was carried through to the center of the flowers.

This young lady knew exactly what she wanted for her birthday cake.....zebra stripes, bling, turquoise, and fantasy flowers.

Slot Machine Birthday Cake

This slot machine cake took a lot of pre planning because I had to make all the decorations out of sugarpaste (before I baked and iced the cake) and size them to an 8" square cake. Because it takes a few days for these sugarpaste decorations to dry, I would not have had the time to dry the decorations if I had iced the cake first. The top sign on the cake is modeled after the "Welcome To Las Vegas" sign in Las Vegas. The gold covered chocolate coins were purchased. If you look closely, you will see a gold covered coin in a slot next to the work "spin". The sides of the slot machine have a royal flush poker hand of cards and the back of the slot machine has two dice. I am very pleased with the outcome of this cake as this is the first time I have done a slot machine cake.
