Here is a fun birthday cake I did for a friends daughter. All the music notes and the sweet 15 with notes are out of royal icing. the icing is italian buttercream. yum yum.

Georgia

This cake has a fun story behind it. The bride let her sister plan the wedding for her since she was out of state. The bride didn't even know what the cake looked like until she got there. That is trust. Georgia’s sister is very smart letting her plan it. It was a beautiful reception from what I saw.

This is a Chocolate caramel cake on the bottom and a white chocolate cake for the top layer. Since they didn't need as much cake the middle layer is rice crispy treets. The layers are taller than normal, the bottom is 7", the middle is 6" and the top is 5". They are covered in caramel Italian butter cream and then chocolate fondant. Dark chocolate is used to pipe the dark scroll work and a white chocolate is used to make the white drapes that wrap around the cake. They match the pleats on the brides dress. I had never done the pleats and drapes before. I learned a lot on this cake. It was so much fun.

That is the first time I worked with this kind of white chocolate pearl clay too. It worked real well once I got the hang of it. My hands are hot so I had to be careful to not get it too warm. It tastes very good too. I got the pearl clay recipe from one of Jennifer Dontz CDs on fondant cakes.

Kelsey and Riley

This was Kelseys wedding cake, simple and elegant. She is the daughter of a lady I work for and a friend. It’s covored with a marshmallow fondant, decorated with dark brown icing and fresh flowers. Below is the grooms’ cake that the bride surprised the groom with. He is a Boston red socks fan and she wanted a cake with their logo on it. He was surprised and very happy.

Baby cake

This was a cake that I did for a school project. Everything on the cake I made. Its a fondant covered cake. The crib is out of the same stuff Necos are made from, but homemade, and gum paste. The string work on the side was also a lot of fun as well. The flowers are also made from gum paste. The edges of the cake were crimped and there is a look of ribbon being threaded in the fondant around the crib.

rose cake

This cake was for the daughter of a friend of mine. The little bride didn't realy like cake so she wanted just a fake cake. So I made it out of ricecrispy squaires and covered it with fondant. There are fondent roses on the side of the cake with icing leaves and vines.

Bow Cake

This cake is a fondant covered cake with a fondant ribbon around the base of each layer and a fondant bow. The cake is decorated with the couples initials and small white icing dots.

Here is sweet Ceders 1st birthday smash cake. She loves pink. She is too cute to leave out of the picture.
