This was my first "real" wedding cake. It was a 4 tier cake covered in ivory fondant. The top and bottom tiers were 4 layers of chocolate cake and 3 layers of chocolate truffle filling, raspberry jam and fresh raspberries. The 2 middle tiers were 4 layers of vanilla cake and 3 layers of vanilla buttercream. The bride provided the leaves for the cake and I made a sort of scrolling design on each layer with royal icing.
It was lots of fun to make and definitely a learning experience! I'm looking forward to my next wedding.
I made this for my wedding cake couple (Danel and Marty). Marty is headed to Afghanistan to serve our country for the next year. This was a 2 layer cake, one chocolate-one vanilla, with vanilla buttercream.
I made these cute cupcakes for a friend whose son was having his 4th birthday. I made spiders, ladybugs and caterpillers out of fondant and sat them on top of my "grass" covered cupcakes.
I made this for a couple who was getting married on Halloween. My impression was that the marriage was a side bar to the Halloween party...lol. They were dressing up as "the bride and groom of death" as the lady put it. Not my thing, but whatever. I made chocolate cake with homemade strawberry filling and I covered it in fondant. I made black fondant roses and made spider webs with royal icing and accented with silver dragees. The skull on top was the only non-edible thing.
This is a 2 layer carrot cake with cream cheese frosting decorated for baby Gehrig. They wanted the pinstripes with Lou Gehrig's retired Yankees number.
