Firefighter Birthday






I must say if you have never made an Italian cream cake you should. It is so so good and not as hard to make as I thought. For this one I added sweet cream to my buttercream and all I can say is wow.



This one is ordered for a Firefighter at the lewisville Fire Dept. I took the design from a cake I found that was done it all fondate.

Steampunk Top Hat

 This top hat was my first fondate coverd cake.
It was 7inch tall with a chocolate fudge cake. I made the flower and gears 3 days in advance then the clock and over things the day of so they were still soft to form to the cake. The folds at the brim where not spots to be there but it worked out being a steampunk cake. They make it look old.
I had to use two box's of chocolate fondate to cover this cake. Next time I think I will brons the fondate to make it a little more steampunk.

Chocolate Chessboard

 I found chocolate molds to make a chocolate chessboard and just had to do this cake. I will say I am no chocolatier. I used the chocolate melts, it took 3 bags each of dark and white.

My first gum plaste flowers

 I have a blast in my flower class. I liked gum paste rose's better then butter cream rose's. I will be make more of these soon.
ooooooo, so pretty. Sprinkles and pearl dust never looked so nice.

Blue Moon Cupcakes

Yes, It has Blue Moon Beer in it but this one will not get you drunk. I think they taste more like a cream sickle then the beer. Love the icing! My friend have the beer so we tried them and they where a big hit.

My first Fondate Bow

So, this is my first project with fondate and gum paste. I must say its hard to work with but makes me feel like a kid again. Its like playing with Play Dough. I also learned once fondate is dry its good for a full year.

Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes




MMMMM, a cupcake you can't eat and then drive. The Cupcake is  Guinness-chocolate cake. Filled with Whiskey Ganache and topped with  Baileys Buttercream.




I then sprinkled the tops with green edible glitter.

War Hammer 40k (Space Marines)





 I did this cake for my friend Matt's Birthday. I is Classic Vanilla filled with four berry jam with vanilla buttercream.


It was a two day pipping fest. The symbol on the left is for the Crimson Fists. One the right the Blood Ravens. 


 All the Black on the cake is chocolate Icing, You just can't make a true black with butter cream. The symbol on the left is the Black Angels. The one are the right is the Salamanders.



The symbol on the far left is the Ultra marines. The the right the Blood Angels. 



The symbol on the far right is the Crimson Fists. On the Left Iron Snakes. If I was to do this cake again I would just put the symbols and not frame them all. I think it would look cleaner.
