Wine in a Basket cake

This cake was done for a fiftieth birthday . . . the cake is golden vanilla with cream cheese filling. The "shredded paper" is just grated candy bark, the cake is frosted with buttercream and chocolate buttercream frosting, with marshmallow fondant. The wine bottle (which I would have made a little longer, with a longer neck, if I'd had the time) is chocolate fudge cake, covered in marshmallow fondant, and the grapes are mmf also. :~) This was a fun cake to do!

Welcome Baby Silhouette Cake

This is a golden vanilla cake, with cream cheese filling. Buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant. The silhouette was hand cut from the mmf. Fun cake for the mom to be!

Beach Boy Cake

I wouldn't call him a beach bum, but here's a little surfin' beach boy, swimming in after catching some waves! This is a vanilla cake, with buttercream frosting and marshmallow fondant accents. The beach is made from crushed vanilla wafers. This is my first little person on a cake! Cake is 11 x 15.

Hawaiian Luau Cake (complete with vacationing penguin!)

This is a BIG cake . . . would feed 75-85 people. Bottom tier is 4 layers of chocolate fudge, middle tier is 2 layers of cherry chip, and top layer is 2 layers of vanilla. Buttercream frosting, with mm fondant accents. The "sand" is crushed vanilla wafers. Tree trunks are pirouette cookies.

Octopus Under the Sea Cake

The theme was just "ocean" so I narrowed it down and went with an octopus as the main attraction . . . we were in Seaside recently and the octopus on display at the aquarium was fascinating, so naturally I gravitated toward that. :~) The bottom tier is a two layer chocolate cake covered in marbled buttercream. The middle is yellow cake, as is the head of the octopus, who is covered in marshmallow fondant. Couldn't resist turning the extra batter into the family of Octopi surrounding the cake!
