Brownie Vest

This is the cake that I made for an end of the Brownie meeting. It's not the prettiest cake, but the girls loved it so I guess that I did ok!

Happy Easter!

Easter can't be complete without a homemade carrot cake with cream cheese icing!

Tigger

Here is the Tigger cake that I made for my nephew's birthday. I made Tigger by using the frozen buttercream transfer method.

Gingerbread Men

My Christmas tradition...Gingerbread Men!

Microphone Cake

So this is my first attempt at a microphone cake for a popstar birthday. The birthday girl requested a microphone with a blue handle and silver or gray top. I made the handle using by cutting a sheet cake in half lenthwise and stacking it. The top part is an 8 inch round cake, stacked and carved to look like a ball. I used buttercream icing, the sparkle is silver sprinkles and the trim on the microphone is black fondant.

Peace Signs

My daughter insisted on a peace sign theme for her birthday this year. It's a two tier, vanilla cake with buttercream frosting. I cut the peace signs and flowers out of fondant. I was unable to find peace sign cookie cutters so I used a round cutter and then cut out the peace signs by hand. Lots of work, but well worth it because my daughter loved it!

Here's a picture of it being cut after all that work!

Corvette

I made this Corvette themed cake for my Corvette loving father! It's covered with marshmallow fondant, which I made for the first time. I'm discovering that I'm not so fond of fondant, but I'll keep trying! Those guys around the side are "Jake", the corvette racing symbol.
