This was a FUN cake! It is 3 tiers. The bottom is chocolate with chocolate mousse filling and the top two tiers are french vanilla with vanilla creme filling. Buttercream frosting with marshmallow fondant accents, as well as some sugar beads. I made this tiara myself, drawing the pattern on paper, covering with wax paper, then overlaying with the fondant. It had to dry for 2-3 days, but I LOVED how it turned out.

Daisy Birthday Cake
Fondant Skateboard Boy (Cake Topper)
I made this cute little skateboard figure for a friend of mine, who needed it for her son's birthday cake. The base of the figure is wire, which I wired through 2 small holes drilled in the toy skateboard and wrapped around the wheel assemblies. Then just covered him up with marshmallow fondant! Had to be careful, as fondant is HEAVY and I wanted him to stand up, so balance was key.
Jungle Birthday Cake featuring the Tiger
Jesse's birthday cake this year. :o) Can't believe he is 11! I really wanted to cheat (to save time) and use fake animals but he was disappointed by that idea (guilt card) so I made them from marshmallow fondant. The cake is two tiered, triple chocolate with chocolate mousse filling and buttercream frosting. The 11 party boys seemed to really enjoy it!
Sunflower Cupcakes
Sunflower cupcakes for my sweet friend Sherry's daughter, Ashley. They were her idea, not mine, but I think they turned out nicely. :o) Triple chocolate cupcakes, buttercream frosting with an oreo center and the little ladybugs are m&m's!
Don't these look like they were meant to be in my dining room? LOL I need to make them again for a gathering here! :o)
