My boyfriend calls these 'hippy cakes' because the colours look like tiedye.
I made this cake for my niece's 2nd birthday. She didn't quiet have the words to 'Happy Birthday' down and would sing 'Happy to you' instead. It was very cute. Cake is a dense vanilla cake covered in an experimental icing (whipped cream and icing sugar). Chloe's eyes lit up when she saw Wags the Dog from the Wiggles.
I made this using a giant cupcake cake tin. A chocolate cake covered with butter cream and then with fondant. This is was my first attempt at using fondant icing. I also coloured the fondant with liquid food dye - this made the icing very sticky, have since found out that gel colours give a bright and more effective result. Plastic spiders. Coloured coconut is around the base.
This was my second attempt at a fondant iced cake. 'How hard could it be' to take on a three tier engagement cake. Bride to be gave me free range on design but asked for something blue and purple as they were the colour theme for the engagement party. I attempted to make a stylized flower as a topper out of just fondant, but it didn't dry as hard as I had expected. Although the end result I think is fairly impressive.
10 inch Chocolate Fudge Cake, dirty iced with butter cream and covered in white fondant. I made this cake for my friend's daughter's christening, although could also be a design for a birthday cake. This is only my 3rd attempt at fondant icing.
