Helllllllloooo, Kitty! ;)

This one had edible silver glitter on it but I didn't like it. I used the white glitter instead on the rest.

Cupcakes and a 6 inch individual cake for a 6 year old b-day party.

Thomas cake

Before: ( a little embarassing) After: (just shows that I really can't wing a cake. It has to be pre designed and calculated to turn out decent)

This is my second attempt at a Thomas cake, and I think I did much better the second time around. You can see the measurments and the math that I used to get it to scale. I started with two 11 x 15 sheet cakes cut and stacked into 4 layers. Then I used my measurments to carve away the excess. It went slowly, but I wanted to be sure not to cut anything off that shouldnt be. Then I did a crumb coat, smothed it and decorated it. I was happy with the way it came out. It wasn't perfect but it was much, much better. If anyone wants a copy of the papers let me know and Ill send them to you.

Teddy Bear Birthday

I almost didn't want to post my pictures after seeing the amazing cakes you have on here. I just finished the Wilton class with Heather this past week. I made this cake and the cupcakes for my son's first birthday. I had a lot of fun and I think they turned out alright for my first try. I look forward to many future decorating attempts. Sara

Talent Show

Here it is finally.... it only took a month to post it. This cake was for our ward talent show. The theme was "Every good gift is from God." which was written on the tag hanging off of the gift box bow. They wanted all kinds of talents showcased. It was a lot of fun to do and a lot of work. I took these when the cake was put together at home so it looked better when we got there. When they announced that it was time for cake there was a line before we even got there to cut it. They were all very excited to eat it. There was a strawberry cake with whipped buttercream and pinapple filling (SO GOOD) and a lemon with rasperry filling, and chocolate with fresh strawberry filling. Notice the artist pallet as the cake board. Gabby again. The crazy one.

Scrub Cupcakes

Here are the Butterfly/Scrub cupcakes that we did a couple weeks ago. They turned out nice. Especially when they were on the cupcake stand. The butterflys are made out of gumpaste then markered in black with the food coloring pens (gabby is the crazy one who did all 50) then with white royal icing dots. The scrubs are out of fondant. Dont ask how long it took. These were for an anestsiologist (sp?) Each scrub had a name tag engraved with Dr. B. They were white cupcakes with lemon curd and cream cheese frosting.

Ladies

Hi everyone,
I've invited some of my students to post on the blog. Just in case you dont recognize anyone, they are from class.

phantom of the opera cake

Here's the final result. Thanks Heather for the advice. I didn't have time to do the piano keys, it probably would have been just the right touch...oh well!
