Christmas Baby Shower
This cake was for a baby shower 2 days after Christmas. The cake was based off the invitation which was very cute. The decorations on top were made out of fondant with buttercream accents.
Pretty little Birthday Cake
Mickey Mouse Cake
This cake is two tiers of white cake with white buttercream frosting. The decorations are fondant, and Mickey is hand painted fondant. I like the balance of this cake, and it was pretty fun to do. I have been wanting to do Mickey for a long time. His face is so easy, but very easy to mess up if you paint one thing "off".

My very first cake disaster
It finally happened. I had my first cake disaster. This is a wedding cake for a couple who were so excited for thier Halloween topsy turvy wedding cake. I set it up, it looked great, and I left. Exactly 1 hour before the start of the reception, I get a call from the reception site, and am told that the cake just tipped over. I have no clue what I did wrong, but the supports clearly weren't right. The whole back side of the cake blew out. So off I went back to try and salvage what I could before the bride and groom got there. I think we (my sister helped) did a good job, and hopefully the bride wasn't too crushed. We had to cut the backside of the cake out, and I ended up putting a bucket in the back with a juice glass on top of it to support the top tier. I feel terrible about the whole thing, but live and learn I guess... The top image is of the fixed cake. The bottom image is what it was supposed to look like :)

Party Cake
Carol's Wedding Cake
This is a 4 tier fondant covered cake. Bottom tier was lemon cake with raspberry filling and lemon buttercream. Next tier up is Chocolate cake with ganache filling and chocolate buttercream. Then comes chocolate/yellow marble cake with chocolate buttercream. And finally the top tier was pumpkin cake with vanilla buttercream. Yum.

Cupcake Wedding
This is a picture of the cupcake wedding I did this past weekend. I was stressed out about how to wrap the cupcakes to make them look sleek and pretty, and I think it came out awesome. I ended up buying scrap book paper, backing it with packing tape, and individually cutting out, wrapping the cupcakes, and glue gunning (is that a verb?) them together. Kind of a lot of work, but worth it in the end. There were 4 flavors of cupcakes. Chocolate/chocolate, vanilla w/buttercream, carrot with buttercream, and chocolate with vanilla buttercream.

Maria's Wedding Cake
I like this wedding cake :) All tiers of the cake are white wedding cake with a custard and strawberry filling. The frosting is buttercream and the ribbon is made of fondant. The flowers are real orchids, and the coolest part is the cake topper which I made. They were looking for a bicycle built for two theme, so I painted a bride and groom with food coloring on a gumpaste plaque I made. The scallops and her dress are in relief. I think it all came out great.
Robot Groom's cake
This is a groom's cake I made for a wedding today (wedding cake above). This is my first standing cake ever, and the height of this cake was about 16". The legs are made of fondant covered rice krispy treats and so are the arms. The head and body are chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I really wish I had an airbrush for this cake because the silver didn't paint on very nicely. This cake is cute, but definitely not one of my best (but I did try my best). The cake was based off of a picture of a key-chain.
