Coconut cake with edible image on fondant plaque. Gumpaste roses. I didn't make the roses. They were purchased.
Just a girlie Birthday. Thank you BonnsCakesAz for the inspiration.
This is a dummy cake. I thought I would give cornelli lace a try.
I've never made this before and I believe the icing is a bit thin. I baked little tufts of meringue to put on top and arranged them with sugared lemon wedges.
This is for 2 ladies in the RHS for their Birthdays. It is red velvet cake torted throughout with cream cheese filling and iced with buttercream and rolled fondant. I had a problem with the dome of the hat. I forgot the buttercream layer and then I also have a dent in the top that I am SO not happy with. I have never baked in a pyrex bowl before.
I decided you guys were right. Since this cake is for a girl, it DOES need to be smiling. I'll save the sarcastic look for my DH..lol.
I made this for a 9-year old girl. I used the large cuddly bear pan for the frog; royal icing flowers and lady bugs. The butterflies and small dragon flies are rice paper and the big one is made of fondant. The frog's eyes and mouth are fondant also.
The wheel is removable so the baby can smash the cake up good.
A customer asked for this for a one-year-old because that's the only T.V show she seems to like! I tried to make it a little feminine and childish too.
Chocolate 2-layer oval cake with whipped chocolate buttercream. I used the rolled buttercream icing recipe I got from this site for the figures and it DOES taste like candy corn..YUM. Sugar cone trees and royal icing.
White cake, italian meringue buttercream, Satin Ice fondant.
I won the Grand Prize at he National Peanut Festival Fair this year with this cake. The picture is not a very good close-up. I used a mixture of several ideas I got from this site combined with the peanuts in paradise theme. All of the little characters are fondant. The peanuts are candy melts. The hot tub and deck are made of Nutter-Butter cookies and german butter cookies.
I got this idea from someone on this website so thank you! I didn't have time to get the 3D train pan though so I used a toy on top instead, and made a fondant face. The rest of the cake is chocolate with vanilla buttercream and fondant accents. Chocolate rocks.
White cake with buttercream icing and roses, fondant golf bag and clubs, gumpaste bow.
This is my 2nd attempt at the good ole deer head. At least this one is more of a 3-D achievment than my last try.
I ended up having to make a sole for this from fondant because my chocolate was TOO hollow when I molded it. Then the fondant didn't hold up well in the refrigerator but the chocolate didn't hold up well outside of the refrigerator..ugh. A learning experience!
This is my nephew's creation. It was sort of a Mississippi Mud cake recipe and I added marshmallow creme to the buttercream. Chopped up Hershey's S'mores bars on top with walnuts and drizzled melted chocolate and also sprinkled between 4 layers. Lordy Mercy the calories!
Boy, this one needs a lot of changing. I needed to do his antlers in royal icing and stupid me used buttercream and his nose is all wrong, crooked eyes..the only thing I half-way like is the back board... lol. Luckily it was just practice.
Strawberry Cake with Strawberry Buttercream. It looks like Betty went to bed with her make-up on but Oh well!
I made this cake for my father-in-law. I didn't want it to be too whimsical or too feminine.
This is actually a cake I made for an orthopedic surgeon. Thanks to everyone who helped me with suggestions. I am so lucky to have found all the talented people on this website! My skills aren't that great yet but I do love it!
Sorry I forgot the pic before I boxed it up. I wanted to especially show those from the forum who helped me with this idea. My very first fbct!
5 cakes to complete Bikini Bottom. It was much work but the kids had a blast. No one even told me I forgot Spongebob's nose!! Oops!
Almond cream cheese pound cake with almond buttercream and pink fondant.
This didn't turn out quite as well as I had planned but I think the Birthday girl was happy and that's good enough.
This is my second attempt at a jungle cake. This picture was taken before I put all of the animals on. I made it for a safari theme for vacation Bible school.
