Book Cake

I did this cake for Rosedale North Elementary. They were having an author visit, Tom Birsdeye.

A pretty simple cake to do, it still took about 6 hours. It's a two layer chocolate cake with chocolate frosting in the middle, buttercream on the outside and fondant on top.

Nerf Gun Cake

The gun is rice crispy treat molded with fondant over it and then all the details added. I have to admit, I am very proud of this one. I had fun putting all the little details of the gun on it. The ammo sticking out of the cake is just fondant ammo on skewers.

Monopoly Cake

This cake was for an 11 year old boy. He wanted to use board games as his theme. So his mom had a great idea to make a Camopoly cake(his name is Cameron. It was so fun to make! And quite delicious if I do say so myself ;)
I made the game pieces, dice, cards and label beforehand out of fondant. The colors on the squares were fondant, but the lines were done with black Wilton frosting, along with the trains. It's not full size, I made it with a 12x12 square pan. So I had to pick and choose which squares to put on it.

It's been awhile since I did a cake, this was a good one to start up with. Not too terribly difficult, just time consuming. I have another coming up this weekend. I think this next one will be a challenge - stay tuned!

Bazinga Cake

This was a cake for my brothers birthday. We are all big fans of The Big Bang Theory.

Simple yellow cake with chocolate buttercream frosting(made with dark chocolate cocoa- making it heavenly) with "Bazinga! "carved out of fondant.

Paisley Shaped Cake

This was for my sister-in-laws surprise party. It's a 3 tiered paisley shaped cake. I will say those pans were nice to work with. The bottom one is pretty big, but manageable, unlike some large pans. to get an even big layer I used the flower pins upside down(2 of them) it worked wonderful. I frosted it with buttercream, vanilla for the top and bottom, raspberry for the middle to go with the vanilla cake and raspberry filling. The top was Banana spice, and the bottom Devil's food. I made 140 different flowers a few days before out of fondant. I probably only used 120 of them.

Bowling Party!

Another cake for the 13 year old. We had a bowling party with some friends the next day. I bought a bowling pin candy mold, so the pins and balls are made from chocolate. The day was hot(same say as the Farm cake) There were 3 bowling pins on top, but two of them melted :( So imagine 2 more pins on wire sticking out of the bow, if you would. This was the same as her floral 13th birthday cake, chocolate, strawberry, chocolate.
This was a fun, fun day! I let the kids go at this with forks ;) They loved it, lots of laughs.

13th Birthday!

This was a special cake, my daughter turned 13! I will admit, it did not come out how I wanted. I think it's because the green wasn't the green I was hoping to get. But still funky and fun!

She wanted 3 layers, chocolate, strawberry, chocolate. With strawberry jam in the middle. It's frosted in buttercream, with fondant flowers. I decorated some of the flowers with white dots. The black border is store bought frosting.
