Panty Party

 For a bridal shower/panty party my friend was having for a co-worker.  White cake filled with raspberry coulis and italian meringue buttercream (yummy stuff).  IMB was also used to frost the cake.  All decorations were made from gum paste with royal icing detail.

                      molded strapless bra onto stryrofoam balls and left to dry before removing.

                                                                        thong panties

rose to match lingerie with ivy and small white flowers.

Girly Skull Cake


Skull cake for a girl celebrating her 11th birthday.  Pink buttercream covered white cake with blue coloring added and they did not want any filling.  For me the filling is the best part but...it wasn't my cake.  This cake was so fun to do.
 
                                                                                 Too cute
Skull was drawn on template plastic and after many adjustments the shape was cut out of gum paste and outlined in royal icing.  Eye, eye patch and nose cut from gum paste, mouth is royal icing.
                                                         Name cut with funky letter cutters
                 Bows cut from a template and outlined with royal icing, hearts and dots from gum paste
                                              Cupcake decorated to match cake but smaller scale.
