Alice in Wonderland Cake

This is my first attempt at a topsy turvy cake. I watched a tutorial, but didn't exactly follow the directions. I learned a lot and I think I am ready to try to make one the proper way. I made this cake for my twin nieces' 12th birthday party. My husband said this is one of my best cakes, and I think I might have to agree, which is pretty amazing because my daughter's birthday party was the night before and I was working on about 3 hours sleep.

Roller Skate Cake

My daughter was having an 80's themed birthday party that included a trip to the roller rink (dressed up in totally awseome 80's gear). I made this cake for her. The roller skate is made of Rice Krispy Treats covered in fondant.

The Last Airbender Cake

My neighbor asked me to make a cake for her son's birthday. They were taking him and his friends to see The Last Airbender. I had seen previews, but had to do a little research to find out enough to make a cake. In the movie, the Avatar can control the elements, so I decided to cover the cake with fondant and paint (with food dye) a section of each cake for each element. I added round disc on each section with the symbol of the element. Then I made a figurine of Avatar. I enjoyed painting the fondant and trying out a new technique I have very little experience with.

Great to Be 8 CTR Cake

I made this white cake with lemon filling for a church activity. I frosted the cake white and then piped green cornelli lace on it. I topped it cake with a fondant CTR Shield. We had drinks made of sherbet and Sprite, which went perfect with the cake. It was a nice ending to a nice night.

Swim Party Fondant Figurine

I made this fondant figurine for a friend who was making a cake for her son's birthday.

This is how her cake turned out. How cute are the wafer cookies as the sides of the pool. I loved it!

Preschool

My other job is being a preschool teacher. This year I taught 9 sweet kids. We celebrated their graduation to Kindergarten last week. I made this lemon cake, frosted it, and decorated it with their names and a figurine (my son said it was him). They sang a few song and were so cute. I will miss them next year!

Poker Table Cake

I made this Poker Table cake for my client's son's 21st birthday. I baked the cakes and filled and frosted them, when I noticed the bottom layer was buckling. I sometimes forget how fragile cake is to work with. All the neighbors got a big chunk of cake and I started over. This was a chocolate cake with Oreo filling.

The client offered to bring over cards and chips, but as a cake decorator, I like the challenge of trying to make everything edible. I cut out these cards and let them dry overnight, then I used food dye to hand paint them.
