Big Cupcake with Creepy & Cute Animals
Our grandson's 2nd birthday. This cake was put together in a bit of a hurry because we had to travel and it was late, but the kids loved it. My dad and I made the fondant animals a few days before not knowing for sure how they would go over and everyone was "calling" their animals so it worked out well. Apparently, our grandson likes fondant better than cake or icing (we witnessed this last year with the Lion cake too) so next year I'm making him a cake but his part will just be some big ...
Aprons
Some gifts I've made recently for family and friends. Reversible and cute! :) I don't have photos of all of them. A friend let me borrow her dress form and that made the other photos look pretty bad so I'm only posting the aprons I have good photos of.
these went to (in order left - right) My cousin Mary, Mamaw, Granny - I love you guys!
Birthday Book Cake
A book cake for my great friend and talented author, Bob Cherry. :) Cover and spines are printed, edible paper. I created these book covers for him (for 2 of his actual novels) so I already had the graphics files. More about Bob! www.bobcherry.com
Cinderella Carriage Cake
Cinderella Princess carriage cake for our oldest Granddaughter. She just turned 5 and loves everything princess!
The base of the cake is actually foam because it was a small party so only the carriage is cake covered in fondant. The wheels and all other decorations are also made from fondant because I thought 5 days would be long enough for them to dry - I was wrong and they needed a lot of support (aka tiny flowers, pumpkin vines & royal icing) to make sure they didn't collapse. If I ...

Spongebob Squarepants & Krabby Patty Cake
This cake was made for our grandson's 2nd birthday. The cake had to travel 5 hours to Montana so I tried to come up with a method to have Spongebob laying down so he could take the trip better - but not just have him laying flat on a cake board - so that's where the giant krabby patty came into play.
where's waldo... errr.. I mean, spongebob!
The bottom and top bun are 10" round yellow cake each covered in fondant. The "krabby patty" is a 10-inch round brownie. The lettuce is ...
