Girlie Monster Truck

Sweet monster truck design for Izzy's second birthday.  

Truck sculpted from rice cereal treats and made to look like a dragon with a horn on top and fangs on the front bumper.  Too cute.  Dirt is chocolate cake crumbled up and a little frosting added for texture and stability.

Red Red Red Red Red-neck 4th of July

 A combo of red-neck and 4th of July cake, although I really like the red-neck part best.  Had the best time planning this one.  Camo part is buttercream using the Viva towel method.  Just blob the different colors on and smooth out with a Viva towel and Fondant smoother.

 RIP youth, old couch, toilet bowl with rock candy for ice, and a tear-drop trailer made with rice cereal treats surrounded with Xmas lights and horns on the front.

Of course you got to have the pink flamingos

Shopkins

A simple little Shopkins cake for Izzy last May with little toys for accenting the top.

Little Pony

 My Little Pony cake for Bailey that I did about a year and a half ago.  Everything but the ponies are hand-made.  Her favorite was Rainbow Dash.

Hey, Mikie

 Monsters Inc. cake for Kensie

 A little Mike Wyzowski with his party hat on.

Been a while since posting to my cake blog because of computer issues and it's been several months since even doing a cake because of moving and all my equipment had been packed up.  So, here is a simple but cute little cake for Brooklinn (nickname "Cookie") on her 11th birthday.  Vanilla cake with a mixed berry filling.  The number 11 was coated in sparkles.

Duck Dynasty

Buttercream frosting and gumpaste sculpting.  Camo tier was piped and then smoothed with viva towel...easier than expected.  Cake was also camo colored, starting with marble cake.

Minnie Mouse

For a first birthday. Vanilla cake with Bavarian cream filling.  Cake tiers are three layers of pink/white/pink which was not requested but I thought a nice surprise for them.  They enjoyed it.

thought this would make the number one a little more special


Baby Builder

My rendition from a picture on an invitation for Dave's cousin who is having a baby shower for a friend and she is doing a cake and cupcake tower and needed a topper for the cake.  Looks very similar to the picture and she is very happy with the results.  This is what I love to do most...sculpting

He's Eleven

Birthday cake for an eleven year old.  10 inch cake that was carved from a template I made from parchment paper.  French vanilla cake with Bavarian cream filling.  Buttercream frosting and gumpaste decorations.  Copied from a picture from another unknown cake artist.  Whoever you are...thanx for the inspiration.

Lalaloopsy Of The Sea

 Second year in a row that Bailey girl wanted a Lalaloopsy cake for her birthday.  Castle is rice krispy treats and covered with a  mix of nutter butters, sugar, and sparkle dust. All decorations are gumpaste.  Buttons are candy melts and a mold.  Funfetti cake and Bavarian cream filling.  Buttercream frosting with a darker blue incorporated in while smoothing the sides.

LSU Girls Softball Cupcakes

 Vanilla cake with vanilla mousse filling and buttercream frosting.  Decorations made with modeling chocolate.  Boot cut from a template detailed by hand and impression stick.  Ball formed and detailed with chocolate molds.  Mustache made from paisley chocolate form and hand detailed.

Deziree's Baby Shower

A baby shower cake for my grandaughter who wanted a little elegance with a little of her whimsy personality.  Vanilla cake marbled with german chocolate, although a lot of the marble was cut off when leveling the cake for stacking (another lesson learned).  Filling was homemade cheescake and frosted with buttercream.



bootie made to look Converse-ish

What A Rush

 Sugar Rush cake from the movie Wreck It Ralph for our Grandaughter who turns 5.  I haven't seen the movie so had to trust my research on the internet for decorations.  While at the party, the movie was on the tv and I did good.  White cake with coconut mousse for filling (coconut pudding with the pieces of coconut sifted out and mixed with whipped cream topping), almost had a bavarian cream taste.  Buttercream frosting.

The  no. 5 is candy melts surrounded by a variety of candy.  Mini Oreos for border.



The road is a mixture of nutter butters and heath crumbles ground up in food processor.  Small mountains are cake pops, larger is ice cream cone filled with the same as cake pops to give it some weight.

 



Car is a toy.

Go 49ers

 Super Bowl cake for San Francisco fans.  Trophy made from gum paste and covered with silver highlighter.  When time came to put everything together, Murphy's Law kicked in.  The ball broke off the trophy and while trying to fix it the whole thing fell over and cracked the base.  Thank goodness for royal icing to glue the ball back on and some strategic grass at the base of the trophy and everything was good to go.  The magic of on the fly decorating.  White cake with whipped cream and fresh strawberries for the filling.  Buttercream frosting.

Baby Shower

VINO IS KEENO

 My sister was visiting me from Oklahoma and her daughter-in-law who loves wine was having a birthday and requested a special cake for her.  French vanilla cake in three layers, one layer filled with chocolate whipped cream and the other layer was pastry cream mixed with a little cool whip.  Fondant raffia, gum paste grapes and leaves, but the bottle of wine was real for the birthday girl to enjoy.
