Crying Baby Cake #2

Recreation of the same baby cake I made for my friend Laura but this time it was for a baby shower that Jill is hosting. This one was alo bigger than the previous baby cake and I swear weighed twenty pounds...then again it may have seemed heavier because I hadn't had coffee yet when I decided to carry up three flights of stairs.

CUPCAKES!!!

And these are the cupcakes that all of Chloe's guests received. Horses are not edible (bought at the party store) but they're still cute.

Chloe's Horse

Staying true to my tradition of hand sculpting fondant figures for Laura's daughter, I made her a horse of her very own for her horse themed birthday party.

Twilight Homage

A "thank you" gift to my friend Jessie - the biggest twerd of them all!

Ahhh, here's the baby

Awe this is the cake that almost didn't happen because my oven broke on Monday - almost had a panic attack. For some weird reason the element damn near melted itself all the way through and I'm so thankful I came into the kitchen before the preheat was done - the element was glowing white and was sparking! Immediately turned it off and called Lowes. Thankfully it was an easy fix and just required a replacement element that arrived on Wednesday, just in time for me to do the cake.

But anyway, this cake is for my friend Laura whom was hosting a baby shower for one of her friends. Laura brought me a picture of a cake she found on one of those baby shower planning websites and asked me to replicate....I think I got it pretty close.

Chocolate cake with Oreos and Cream Mousse.
Covered and detailed with Satin Ice Fondant

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!
Made this after seeing a similar cake on Cakecentral but the egg was just white. I decided to paint the egg to make it more Easter like.
Carrot Cake with Creamcheese Buttercream Fill and Frosting.

So this cake was far more challenging to me than I thought it would be and surprisingly, it wasn't the purse.....it was the shoe box! Purse was done in about 3 hours and the darn shoe box took me easily 6-8 hours to complete. Mainly that was due to my own stupidity (fondant wasn't long enough) but I just couldn't get it to look right. After three attempts, what you see is what I settled on. Overall, I like the outcome. Shoe, Roses, Pearls, and Flowers are all gumpaste. Purse is Marble cake with chocolate filling covered in Satin Ice; Coach design was airbrushed on with Silver Luster. Shoe Box is Chocolate Cake with chocolate filling covered in Satin Ice. Martini glass is plastic but it's filled with red glitter gel.

Pink and Green Baby Shower

This one was for my friend Connie...she wanted it for her sister-in-law's baby shower. Replicated after the shower cake I did for my sister over a year ago with a few tweaks. Everything but the bow and the monogram are edible.
Cake is yellow with chocolate bavarian filling and iced with white chocolate buttercream. Satin Ice fondant used for the accents.

Fantasy Island

I made this for one of the girls in engineering for her rehersal dinner.
Everything is edible...even the flowers though I'm sure they wouldn't taste too good.
Bottom tier is chocolate with strawberry fill, middle is strawberry with bavarian fill, and top tier is white almond sour cream with strawberry fill.

6x Birthday Celebration

So this is what happens when a family has 6 birthdays in one month! These were so much fun...I just itching for someone else to order the same! LOL.
